“A great brand is trust that compounds. People choose you on value, not discounts. Paid media works harder. Customers stay longer, spend more and bring others with them. New products launch to people who already believe in you. And it all shows up on the bottom line, in a business worth more the day you sell.”
Azam Jaafri, Founder

Idea to

exit

Azam started Nustone in 2004 with one type of stone, a simple online store and a forklift. Over sixteen years it grew into one of the UK's leading online paving brands, and in 2020 it was acquired by a global stone group.

Our
Model

Our brands
Ideas we originate, fund and run ourselves, with our own capital and our own team. We take the risk first, so every method we bring to partners has already been tested and proven on our own brands.
100% owned
Launch partnerships
For founders before launch. You have the product and the drive. We back it with capital and our operating team across brand, product, supply chain and growth, and take a meaningful stake. You lead the brand. We build it with you.
30 to 50%+
Scale partnerships
For brands doing $500K to $5M ARR. Demand is proven, but the business behind it isn't ready for the next stage. We fix the foundations first: margin, operations and team. Then we scale it with you as a shareholder.
