Afri-X today proudly announced the launch of Eyethu Beverages Token, issued on the DigiShares tokenization platform, as Afri-X’s first token outside Real Estate

NEW YORK, USA, June 23, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Eyethu Beverages is a well-established South African business that produces both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The funding required is to launch two already very well-known cider brands in the market. The total raise is ZAR60 million ($5 million) and there will be one million tokens on offer for 30% equity in the business.

Afri-X is a South African white label partner of DigiShares, providing tokenization services in the Sub-Saharan Africa for both crowdfunding and real assets. They are seeing a rising level of interest and engagement from both business owners and investors as the awareness and acceptance of tokenization increases.

"The opportunity to provide an alternative funding source to a South African Unicorn in the making while simultaneously providing everyday men and women from all over the world access to an exceptional business was one we simply could not afford to miss”, remarked Tsolo Makara, CEO at Afri-X.com.
Claus Skaaning, CEO of DigiShares, comments, “This is one of the first real tokenization projects we are aware of in Africa and we hope it will see a good level of interest. We particular like the element of democratization which is so important both in Africa and elsewhere in order to give equal opportunity access to investments into assets that are normally out of reach for retail investors”.
