Overview

Momo Kombucha brews organic, unfiltered kombucha in small batches using traditional glass jars and sells through retailers including Ocado, Gail’s, Nando’s and Booths. Founders Josh and Lisa Puddle launched the brand in 2018 after discovering kombucha in New York and retain a majority stake. The business has doubled revenues on average each year for the past four years and is targeting £4.5m in sales in 2025, with a forecast of £20m by 2028. Momo expanded its leadership at the end of 2024, hiring a COO and a head of finance to support growth. The company positions itself to capture a growing UK kombucha category driven by gut-health and low-alcohol trends and is investing in production capacity and product quality to scale. MOMO Kombucha is a South London‑based, B‑Corp‑rated start-up that produces kombucha beverages. The company is expanding retail distribution, rolling out to Gail’s Bakery nationwide and to Riverford Organic, and has taken Ocado’s top spot as the best-selling soft drink. It announced a £1 million fundraise. MOMO expects 150% revenue growth at the start of 2024 and projects to hit £3m in revenue this year. Those figures were presented in the article as indicative of a broader boom in kombucha consumption.
