Sally Beauty just announces winners of third Cultivate accelerator program

LUXXI and Juices & Botanics both went through a rigorous process before being selected as this year’s winners. The Cultivate program began with a 4-week virtual retail readiness boot camp that offered insights and advice in key areas such as Marketing, Merchandising, Legal, E-commerce and Store Operations.

At the boot camp’s end, finalists took what they already had – and what they learned – to pitch their business to Sally Beauty Holdings executives who then determined the Cultivate winners. To create excitement, consumers had the chance to participate in the process by voting for the brand they wanted to see in stores.

As winners, LUXXI and Juices & Botanics each receive distribution at Sally Beauty, $15,000 in funding and a 12-month mentorship. “We are always looking for new, original products to bring to our consumers looking for pro-quality products at an affordable price.
