W launches in June 2024 as Jake Paul's men's personal care line, sold nationally at Walmart stores and Walmart.com and incubated by his venture firm Anti Fund. W Labs announces on July 23, 2024 that it has raised 14 million dollars across seed and Series A rounds led by Shrug Capital and Anti Fund, at a valuation the company puts above 150 million dollars, with backers including Naomi Osaka, Michael Rubin and Celsius chief executive John Fieldly. The company says it passed 1 million dollars of sales in its first month and targets 50 million in year one, figures that are company claims rather than filings. The manufacturer is not publicly named.
