Problem
Avoiding alcohol is hard
And good non-alcoholic drinks are scarce, making it harder.
Despite global trends like "Dry January" and the rise of the "Sober Curious" movement attracting millions, finding a flavorful adult beverage without booze continues to be difficult.
This severely under-served population deserves better.

Welcome to Monday
Free of Alcohol :: Full of Spirit

Monday means people no longer have to choose between good health and great taste. With Monday Gin™, you can drink delicious cocktails, socialize without stress, and wake-up feeling fresh and hangover free.
Product
Zero alcohol, amazing taste
A non-alcoholic spirit for the spirited ones.

People LOVE Monday Gin™
People choose not to drink for many reasons.
For some it's about health - dropping a few pounds, progressing in the gym, or checking out the Keto diet. Others may be trying to dry out after lockdown, stay sharp through newly gained work responsibilities, or maintain the balancing act of a new WFM-with-kids lifestyle.
Whatever the reason, Monday Gin™ offers a delicious cocktail experience so people can still enjoy their 5 o'clock fav and join in those zoom happy hours at home.

Market
Disrupting the $1.5T global alcohol market
Non-alcoholic beverages are a new, burgeoning subset within the alcohol industry set to explode in the coming years worldwide.
Unprecedented growth in the space is drawing investor interest as well, signaling now is the ideal time to lean in and scale up as drinkers increasingly demand better-for-you adult beverages.
Our non-alcoholic spirits segment in particular is on the rise.
Non-alcoholic spirits own digital. And so do we.
Given the current pandemic environment causing more online shopping than ever coupled with non-alc spirit seekers leaning to e-commerce, Monday's digitally native focus and founder led expertise in the space is perfectly positioned to take advantage and grab more than our fair share of the market.
Competition
Monday is best in non-alc
Our Gin stands tall above all other non-alc competitors.

Vision and strategy
Delicious alcohol free options - everywhere
Mission Driven & Community Focused
We're passionate about changing what it means to enjoy an adult beverage (amazing taste, zero alcohol, all-inclusive) with friends and disrupt the status quo that happy hours and social occasions require alcohol.
To accomplish this, we need to reach more people faster which means meeting, messaging, and serving them wherever they are.
In addition to online, this includes expanding to upscale hospitality brick-and-mortars...
...opening up beyond US borders to international markets...
...building out a robust product pipeline to please more palates and diversify our drinks portfolio...
...and pushing the envelope with brand awareness in unusual and exciting settings online, in-print, and conventional media plays is key to disrupting cultural norms about alcohol and setting a new, equitable standard for drinkers everywhere.
