Man United aces Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho boost business empires by backing new line of baby lotions
MANCHESTER United stars Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho have invested in a line of baby lotions.
They have ploughed cash into Nala’s Baby, which makes specialist skin and hair care oils for tots.
The company is said to be worth £17million and boasts a star-studded shareholder list that includes boxer Anthony Joshua.
Rashford, 26, will be hoping to help the brand expand — and add something new to his business portfolio after he built a £15million property empire.
His mum Melanie is also believed to have invested.
Sancho, 24, who founded his own investment firm in 2018, is also keen to promote the firm.
He said: “I’m proud to get behind and show support for a brand that’s offering a much-needed hand to parents who want the best for their children.”
Their 20 sensitive skin oils, body butters and lotions will also launch in Sainsbury’s this week after previously inking nationwide partnerships with Ocado, Boots and Tesco.
Nala’s was launched in 2020 by British rapper Krept, real name Casyo Johnson, and Instagram influencer ex-girlfriend Sasha Ellese Gilbert.
Both founders previously said they spotted a gap for “naturally-derived” baby products – though Krept, 34, added he uses the cream for his own face every day.
The first batch of test lotions were specially developed for their daughter, four, who the business is named after.
