Rose Street Capital: Investing in the Future of Direct-to-Consumer and Ecommerce
Rose Street Capital is an early stage venture fund that specializes in investing in direct-to-consumer (DTC) and ecommerce companies. Founded by a team of experienced investors, Rose Street Capital has quickly established itself as a leading player in the world of startup funding.
At Rose Street Capital, we believe that DTC and ecommerce are the future of retail. With more consumers than ever before shopping online, there has never been a better time to invest in these industries. Our team is dedicated to finding the most promising startups and helping them grow into successful businesses.
Our Investment Philosophy
At Rose Street Capital, we take a unique approach to investing. We don't just provide funding; we also offer our portfolio companies access to our extensive network of industry experts and advisors. This allows us to provide valuable guidance on everything from product development to marketing strategy.
We also believe in taking a long-term view when it comes to investing. We're not interested in quick returns or short-term gains; instead, we focus on building lasting relationships with our portfolio companies and helping them achieve sustainable growth over time.

We look for startups that have innovative products or services, strong management teams, and clear paths to profitability.
Some examples of the types of companies we've invested in include:
- A subscription-based meal delivery service that uses AI technology to personalize meal plans for each customer
- An online marketplace for sustainable fashion brands
- A direct-to-consumer skincare brand that uses all-natural ingredients
