Started the first black-owned insulated water bottle brand called SUPLMNT. SUPLMNT is geared toward culture and spreading awareness of the importance of hydration in inner-city communities. Created my business during the pandemic and have been building SUPLMNT brick by brick.
I am a founder, relationship builder, problem solver, executor, and culture curator. As a founder, I have worn many hats which have elevated my level of experience from, manufacturing, overseas logistics, product development, team management, eCommerce, retail, pitch decks, and the list goes on and on. I am a true student of the game and am always open to learning more.
I have 8 years of experience in sales from medical supplies at fortune 5 companies to automotive sales. I want to use my talents and ambition to leave the world a better place!
Growing up in the inner city no one taught me, or my peers, the importance of drinking water and staying hydrated. In most of our households, high-sugar drinks such as Kool-Aid and soda were our only source of hydration. It wasn’t until later in life that I realized the health issues plaguing my family and friends had major roots in poor diet and hydration.
Founder Jairus Morris started SUPLMNT company after discovering the product category and realizing no one in his circle owned any insulated water bottles, despite the existence of many major brands in the space.
