Raising capital has been one of his greatest challenges. Beatrice used his own money—along with some funds from friends and family—to start Barrell. But it immediately became evident that he would need more cash to stay competitive. In 2016, after several rounds of negotiating, Beatrice thought he’d found a great partner.
