I wanted to invest in a company, and had to do it through Broccoli. The process was easy and quick, I just followed the guiding. No problem to do it from outside EU.

Company details

Written by the company

Broccoli is het allereerste Nederlandse sharefundingplatform voor groene aandelen met de nieuwe Europese crowdfundingvergunning. Sharefunding is een goed alternatief voor de traditionele manier van financiering via een bank, crowdfunding, één grote investeerder of bijvoorbeeld private equity. In plaats van vreemd vermogen en een schuld gaat het bij sharefunding om eigen vermogen, in ruil voor aandelen. De wereld groener en gezonder maken, daar gaan we voor bij Broccoli. We brengen ondernemers en investeerders samen. Via ons platform kunnen bedrijven hun aandelenkapitaal inzetten voor gezonde groei en zorgen wij dat rendement en impact samenkomen. We zijn er voor duurzame consumentenmerken in de food & drinks-sector. Want dat is de business die we begrijpen. Daar ligt ons hart. We geloven in een transitie in het wereldwijde voedselsysteem.

Buying is easy, selling is impossible

Buying is easy! But when you are ready to sell after 2 years nothing happens. The only way to sell is with losing money while the stock went up and the company makes profits. So be prepared to lose money or never see your money again.

I am trying to sell my shares for more than 6 months now and the only way left is selling far under the price i bought it for.. while the price is 5% up.

Thank you for sharing your experience and feedback. We understand your frustration regarding the sale of your shares.

Selling shares early is quite unique in this type of investment. Typically, investments in start-ups and scale-ups have a long-term horizon of 5 to 10 years. This means that if you wish to sell early, there may not always be demand for your shares at your desired price.

It’s important to be prepared for the risk of losing money, which is why we advise investing only with money you can afford to lose. However, this does not mean you will automatically lose your money. The value of your investment can fluctuate, and it may take time to find a suitable selling opportunity.

Investing in start-ups and scale-ups involves high risk, and we are transparent about this. There are no guarantees, but there is potential for significant growth if you have a long-term vision.

The goal of your investment is to increase its value while making a positive impact. We believe that impact and return can go hand in hand, and we are committed to creating value in both areas.

We are transparent about the selling process at the time of purchase. Unlike public stocks, shares in start-ups and scale-ups are less liquid, which can impact your ability to sell them at your desired price.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. If you have any further questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out.

============================================================
Bedankt voor het delen van je ervaring en feedback. We begrijpen je frustratie over de verkoop van je aandelen.

Het vroegtijdig verkopen van aandelen is bij dit type investering vrij uniek. Over het algemeen hebben investeringen in start-ups en scale-ups een lange termijn horizon van 5 tot 10 jaar. Dit betekent dat er mogelijk geen vraag is naar jouw aandelen of naar de prijs waarvoor je wilt verkopen.

Je moet je voorbereiden op het risico van verlies van geld, en daarom adviseren wij altijd om alleen te investeren met geld dat je kunt missen. Dit betekent echter niet dat je automatisch je geld verliest. De waarde van je investering kan schommelen en het kan tijd kosten om een geschikt verkoopmoment te vinden.

Investeren in start-ups en scale-ups brengt hoog risico met zich mee, en daar zijn we transparant over. Er zijn geen garanties, maar er is potentieel voor aanzienlijke groei als je een lange termijn visie hebt.

Het doel van je investering is om de waarde te laten groeien en tegelijkertijd impact te maken. Wij geloven dat impact en rendement hand in hand kunnen gaan en zijn toegewijd aan het creëren van waarde op beide vlakken.

We zijn transparant over het verkoopproces op het moment van aankoop. In tegenstelling tot beursgenoteerde aandelen zijn aandelen in start-ups en scale-ups minder liquide, wat invloed kan hebben op je mogelijkheden om ze tegen de gewenste prijs te verkopen.

Dank voor je geduld en begrip. Mocht je nog vragen hebben of hulp nodig hebben, neem dan gerust contact met ons op.

Broccoli platform has been an excellent experience! I really appreciate their focus on sustainability and the opportunity to invest in companies that support sustainable practices and help reduce food waste. The platform is easy to use, with clear and detailed information on each campaign, making it simple to make informed decisions. I feel not only like an investor but also like I’m contributing to a greater cause. I highly recommend Broccoli to anyone looking to make meaningful investments and support eco-friendly projects!
