Tell us a bit about the story behind Made By Fressko. What was your inspiration and your brand mission?
The brand started in 2014 with our original and flagship double walled glass infusers. This was created as plastic bottles were dominating the market and a new solution for reusable drinkware was desperately needed. We believed we could do it better and made by Fressko was born.
Soon after, our reusable coffee cups and stainless steel ranges were released to battle single use drinkware and to compliment the rest of our reusable range.
What sets your brand apart from others in the industry?
Quality of our products, made by Fressko 2-in-1 infuser which allows the user to drink multiple types of beverages from 1 flask. I.e., Steeping Tea, fruit waters, water.
