Dear Boku Investors and Followers,

Summer is well underway and so are we at Boku, with some very exciting business development updates to share!

Our mission to leverage hemp as the “Original Superfood” has not only positioned us firmly as an industry leader, we also stumbled on an amazing discovery that has led to the filing of a U.S. Patent application.

Hemp, as you may know, is the non-psychoactive variety of cannabis.  It does not get you ‘high’ like marijuana but offers incredible benefits as a food and medicine.  At Boku, we like to say that food is medicine and hemp is BOTH!

While experimenting with adding full-spectrum hemp powder to our superfood formulas, we discovered that we were somehow able to activate the cannabinoids in hemp (CBD and others), without heat.  This is incredibly important and exciting.  Until now, it has been widely believed that in order for humans and pets to benefit from the cannabinoids in hemp, the hemp needed to be heated – either cooked, smoked or vaped.  Well not anymore!  We have proven that we can unlock the amazing benefits in hemp by simply combining it with specific superfood ingredients.  Very much like the way lemon juice can “cook” fish in the popular south American dish ceviche, there are natural Phyto-chemicals in our superfood ingredients that cause a similar reaction when combined with hemp to unlock the medicinal, health forming nutrients.  

In addition to this breakthrough, we are also developing our Shake & Take Boku packaging, made from 100% compostable hemp biofilm.

Imagine single serve Boku Superfood meals in a convenient travel pouch that you can simply fill with water, shake, take and toss!  With no negative impact on the environment!

Thanks to you, we stand to make an enormous positive difference for not only our customers and shareholders, but also for the beautiful planet we all call home.  If you’ve already invested in Boku, THANK YOU and please consider increasing your stake today. If you’re one of the 424 people who have been following our campaign but have not yet gotten onboard, please click that “Invest” button now and buckle up for what promises to be a fun and meaningful ride!  

Love and best,

Team Boku

Dear Investors and Friends of Boku!

Reno Jr. and I spent the day recently at the amazing Google facility in Kirkland Washington, working on an exciting new program to integrate Boku Superfood into the Google ecosystem!

Their facility located just outside of Seattle is massive, with 3 huge modern buildings constructed around a beautiful community park. The park features soccer, baseball, basketball, and volleyball courts with beautifully landscaped walking paths. Believe it or not, Google prepares 100,000 meals per day in these campuses worldwide, for employees and guests.

To accomplish this, they have beautiful restaurants, “micro-kitchens” and multiple cafes onsite at these state-of- the- art facilities.  Here’s the amazing part: Everything including haircuts, massages, meals, drinks & snacks is available to employees and guests every day, at no charge!

Google truly prioritizes the health and wellness of their employees, and that’s where Boku comes in! We have not entered into a definitive deal yet and still have a lot of work to do. That said, we have been working on a comprehensive corporate wellness program with Google for months and we are making great progress.

The goal is to start with Boku’s high octane “Super Meal” powder in single use packaging to provide a nutrient dense superfood meal replacement option for Google employees. Super Meal is a new Boku formula that essentially combines the very best of Boku in one 55 gram serving. We will be offering the Super meal in the new “Shake- Take and Toss” fully recyclable single-serve packaging we have been developing with your help.

We are also hoping to integrate our award-winning Super Food, Super Protein, and Super Fuel powders to be included in the numerous smoothies served at Google facilities worldwide, every day.

Our mission at Boku is to share mother nature’s most potent superfood gifts and positively impact people. While there are many details yet to be ironed out, we are deeply honored to be aligned with an esteemed and powerful organization the likes of Google.  They understand the incredible difference Boku can make - not only in the health and wellness of their employees but also in moral, workplace productivity and the financial bottom-line for companies, large and small. 

Please stay tuned for more exciting updates!

Love and best,

Team Boku

Dear Current Investors and Followers,

We are excited to announce that foot traffic to Boku HQ and our retail store should soon see a major boost, as we have just entered into a formal agreement with Tesla, who will be installing one of the area's largest banks of Tesla Super-Chargers, right here in our parking lot!

Boku will be a featured destination on the menu screen of all Tesla vehicles, guiding these drivers to our location for charging access along with unique super food tasting and shopping experiences.  With this steady flow of Tesla traffic coming through, we're obviously very excited about the potential to earn new Boku Super food customers.  Complimenting the fun and educational shopping experience in our amazing factory outlet store, Tesla drivers will get discounted e-bike rentals in exchange for Boku super food purchases, so they can explore picturesque Ojai while their cars are charging.

We also have plans to sell ready-to-consume products through our takeout window directly adjacent to the famous Ojai bike trail and renowned Ojai Valley inn and Spa.  These products will include our newly-formulated fresh-pressed hemp juice elixirs, super food smoothies, frozen treats, snacks and more! 

Tesla is all about clean fuel for transport and Boku is all about clean fuel for humans.  We see a perfect fit here and are very excited to have formalized this powerful brand partnership. 

We'll have much more to share in the coming weeks about how Boku HQ will continue evolving into a must-visit destination for Ojai tourists and hot recruiting tool for new customers.  Meanwhile, please visit our startEngine page and invest now!  We appreciate having you onboard for this exciting adventure more than words can express! 

Love and best,

Team Boku

Please note: Details of the Boku/Tesla agreement are confidential at this time and should not be shared outside of the intended recipients.

Dear Treasured Investors and Followers,

Many of you know that Boku has recently moved into new headquarters in our hometown of Ojai, California. We’re still developing certain areas of this fabulous property, but as we shared late last year, our onsite production facilities and beautiful retail store are now fully operational!  Click the link below for a sneak-peek at our new HQ, which happens to be located directly in front of the world-renowned Ojai Valley Inn and Spa, less than a mile from downtown.  

Ojai is a premier Southern California luxury travel destination, where tourists enjoy boutique hotels, art galleries, wineries, spiritual retreats, restaurants, live music, theater and an abundance of outdoor activities.  Just 15 miles from the ocean, Ojai is a mecca for organic wellness and one of the most charming communities you will ever encounter.

As the spring and summer travel season approaches, we're expecting a lot of tourist traffic at Boku. Our goal is to maximize the revenue potential of this traffic while sharing tours, talks and events leading to super food experiences and ultimately, purchases onsite. 

Exciting brand partnerships will be announced in the coming weeks.  These massive brands acknowledge the strategic value of our location and will be activating on property, in partnership with Boku. 

If you happen to be in the area - stop by for a tour and to say hello!  Meanwhile, thanks for your support and for joining us on this amazing journey!

Dear Investors and Followers,

With Valentine's Day upon us, we first want to express our love and gratitude to all of you, especially those that have invested in our StartEngine Equity Crowdfunding campaign, which just hit 200 investors! 

With that said, we have some very exciting news on the product front. Boku is entering the hemp space and will soon be rolling out non-psychoactive cannabis based superfood items, that promise to disrupt and revolutionize this fast growing vertical. With all the recent hype surrounding CBD and other functional cannabinoids, Boku is planning to take this category to another level by spearheading the fact that hemp is one of earth's greatest gifts, and as we see it, The Original Superfood.

With the recent passing of the U.S. Farm Bill legalizing hemp, our focus is of course, on functional cannabinoids like CBD, CBN, CBG and others - but unlike most in the industry, we won't just be extracting these cannabinoids. In keeping with our "whole food" mantra, Boku will be utilizing the "whole plant" to exploit all of its healing properties, just the way nature intended.

With your help, we will soon be introducing a wide variety of products to the mass market, including fresh-pressed hemp juice elixirs, full spectrum hemp fortified superfood powders and more!  Now that federal regulations have loosened, we're so excited to leverage our years of research and proven expertise to exploit the convergence of two historical trends: 1. Organic superfoods and 2. Cannabis.  If you're as excited as we are, please join us an investor, or re-up your current investment. Be sure to check out our StartEngine page to learn more.

Thanks and best always,

Team Boku

Dear Investors and Followers,

Coming off the announcement of our endorsement deal with Kyle Kuzma, we have another exciting update about an incredible addition to the Boku team.

Many of you are already aware of our involvement with Mariel Hemingway, Oscar-nominated actress and prominent health and wellness advocate. We are so very fortunate to have her officially on board, as her work in the field of treating depression is inextricably linked to our cause.

You see, our superfoods contain extraordinarily high amounts of PREbiotics from fruit and vegetable fiber. PREbiotics are the amazing ingredients that feed the billions of naturally occurring PRObiotics already in our gut. It’s the only thing that PRObiotics consume for fuel to multiply. By feeding the PRObiotics in our gut, we can help restore healthy gut balance and digestion.

But here’s the amazing part - Experts believe that a balanced, healthy gut can actually produce more SEROTONIN, the feel good chemical of happiness than the BRAIN!

Mariel knows all too well that there are an estimated 50+ million U.S. adults currently taking prescription antidepressant drugs. The sole benefit of these potentially dangerous drugs, is that they help stimulate the production of serotonin in the brain. Ms. Hemingway and her tireless work will help us raise awareness of the role that superfoods can play in benefitting both physical and mental health. In fact, it is our strong belief that superfoods could present a safe and natural, alternative path to the happiness we all seek and deserve.  Our hope is that together we can help alleviate the effects of depression on our society while advocating superfoods and healthy living.

The news just keeps on getting better, as we continue unwrapping the powerful secrets of Mother Nature! Thanks so much for being a part of this amazing journey!  If you haven’t already, please join Mariel and the Boku family as an investor. 

Thanks and love,

Team Boku

Dear Investors and Followers,

Some absolutely huge news - we have officially signed an endorsement contract with L.A. Laker super star Kyle Kuzma! Fans best know him as ‘Kuz’ and we’re so very proud to now call him part of the Boku family.

Kyle has been a longtime fan of our products and has experienced dramatic improvement in his on and off-the-court performance. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that Kyle scored a career high 41 points last night against the Detroit Pistons and has personally credited Boku Superfood for this Super Human performance!

As part of our agreement, he will be promoting our line of products across his 2.5M Instagram followers (and 500K+ on Twitter). He has incredible influence as a rising young NBA Super Star and we couldn’t think of a better individual to partner with. We're confident that Kyle will play a key role in elevating the Boku brand and helping us grow exponentially.

Kyle knows very clearly, the difference that Boku Superfoods have made for him and clearly sees the exciting future ahead for all of us. We would love for you to follow his lead and become an investor in our StartEngine crowd equity campaign. Together, we have the opportunity to grow and advance Boku’s mission of helping people live healthier, more fulfilling lives.

We'll have a lot more to share on our partnership with Kyle in the coming weeks. In the meantime, if you haven't already, get on board with Boku and become an investor. You won't want to miss out on the much greater things we're poised for.

Thanks and best,

Team Boku

Dear Investors and Followers,

We are really on a roll! 

Reno Jr. and I just returned from Indianapolis where we met with Davon Reed of the NBA Indiana Pacers and his management team. What an amazing guy and perfect spokesperson for Boku! Equally amazing is his management team that represents some of the biggest names in professional sports. It so humbling and almost overwhelming when we consider what is happening right now for Boku.

It has been our dream for years to be a leader in superfood sports nutrition. We have personally witnessed the positive results many professional athletes have had with our superfoods but until recently, we lacked the resources to go after major endorsement deals. I have watched big nutrition brands team up with influential athletes to promote their products through expensive TV ads, product placement deals and other promotions that we could simply never afford. All the while knowing that their products could never even hold a candle to Boku Superfood. We have patiently maintained focus on our mission and let our superfoods do all the talking. We knew that it would only be a matter of time before word spread about our amazing products. Now we are on the verge of announcing some more incredible partnerships in the pro sports world. 

We have seen remarkable transformation in people from all walks of life with our superfoods. As long as there are people who have not heard of Boku Superfood and experienced this positive transformation and health forming power, we will not stop! Thanks to many of you, we are now at 95% of our first tier funding goal with our 84 investors in our campaign to-date! THANK YOU!!! And please stay tuned for more exciting announcements coming VERY SOON!

Love and best,

Team Boku

Our mission is to share nature's most potent and healing superfood secrets with as many people as possible. With your help, we are now micro-batching our delicious, health-forming superfood blends under one amazing roof and are positioned to scale with remarkable efficiency!
