Sly Fox Brewing Creates Community with Crowdfunding

From Sly Fox:

Wyomissing, PA  – October 21, 2018 — Sly Fox Brewing Company, the popular regional brewery and brewpub will open a third pub in the former Vanity Fair Outlet Mall and they are more than HALF WAY toward the goal of creating a built-in audience of supporters.

Last month, Sly Fox made public an investment opportunity facilitated through a partnership with wefunder.com/slyfox

"The reception in the Wyomissing and Reading area has been overwhelming," says Randy McKinley who will manage the location on opening. "Although most contributions have been local, we’ve received support from people in Chicago, Bismarck, El Paso and as far away as England and Ireland."

Investments of all sizes will help the brewery reach their capital goal of $300,000 and to open on schedule. Investors receive a return and Sly Fox has created a community of ambassadors prior to the first beer being poured.

"We’re ahead of schedule and we’ve raised more than half of the capital" adds Sly Fox Brewing Company Managing Partner, John Giannopoulos. "A successful campaign will yield hundreds of people investing in Sly Fox, which translates to hundreds of advocates for our new location and our brand."

With two long-term, successful locations under in their portfolio, the strength of the Sly Fox brand, and a promising new location in Wyomissing, all the pieces are in place for a third successful brewpub.
