Ola Brew is a unique and innovative company that takes pride in its ownership structure. Unlike many other businesses, Ola Brew is not solely owned by a single individual or a group of investors. Instead, it is a combination of employee and community ownership, which sets us apart from the rest.
At Ola Brew, we have a total of 650 small investors who have chosen to invest in our company. These investors come from all walks of life, ranging from local residents to individuals who are passionate about supporting local businesses. Their investments not only provide us with the financial support we need to grow and expand, but they also show their belief in our mission and vision.
In addition to our community investors, we also have 20 dedicated employee owners who have a stake in the company. These employees have been with us for a significant amount of time and have proven their commitment and dedication to the success of Ola Brew. They have not only contributed their skills and expertise but have also invested their own resources to become part owners of the company.
The combination of employee and community ownership creates a sense of shared responsibility and accountability within our organization. Every member of the Ola Brew team, whether an employee or an investor, is deeply invested in the success and growth of the company. This unique ownership structure fosters a strong sense of commitment and dedication among our employees, resulting in a highly motivated and engaged workforce.
One of the advantages of having a community-owned company is the direct involvement and support from the local community. Our community investors are not just passive shareholders; they actively participate in the growth and development of Ola Brew. They attend shareholder meetings, provide valuable feedback, and spread the word about our products and mission within their networks. This level of community engagement creates a strong bond between Ola Brew and the people we serve, and it allows us to better understand and meet their needs and expectations.
Furthermore, our employee owners have a personal stake in the success of Ola Brew. They have a sense of pride and ownership in their work, knowing that their efforts directly impact the growth and profitability of the company. This ownership mentality drives them to go above and beyond in their roles, constantly seeking ways to improve and innovate.
Ola Brew is owned by both a diverse group of community investors and dedicated employee owners. This unique ownership structure not only provides us with the financial resources we need but also fosters a deep sense of commitment and engagement within our organization. We are proud to be a community-owned company, and we believe that this ownership model sets us apart in the brewing industry.
