Maker Introduction
AROUNDX
Hello.
We are AROUNDX, the maker officially introducing DraftTop LIFT to Korea.
AROUNDX discovers products that have already been recognized for their potential overseas,
and curates them as a lifestyle maker to introduce them in a way that suits Korean consumers.
We do more than simply import new products; we reinterpret and deliver the value of products
to fit the lifestyle and usage scenarios of Korean consumers.
The DraftTop we are introducing this time is a beverage accessory brand that started in the U.S. in 2015.
It is a beverage accessory brand.
DraftTop began with the question, "Can canned drinks be enjoyed more deliciously, more fun, and with better atmosphere?"
It started from this question.
Afterward, it gained attention on global crowdfunding platforms including Kickstarter,
and was featured on Shark Tank in the U.S., drawing interest as a new way to enjoy canned drinks.
It attracted attention as a new way to enjoy canned beverages.
DraftTop LIFT is not just a simple can opener.

Draft Top
DraftTop is a beverage accessory brand that started in the United States in 2015.
It opens the top of the can wide so you can enjoy it like a cup,
offering a new drinking experience called 'CAN to CUP.'
From its initial launch, it received high market interest through crowdfunding,
raising about $210,000 on Kickstarter in 2015, and later in 2019 and 2020 campaigns,
an additional $830,000 was raised, proving its product quality and marketability.
In 2021, it was also featured on Shark Tank,
where it received a $300,000 investment offer from investor Daymond John,
greatly expanding brand awareness.
Since then, DraftTop has gone beyond being a simple opener,
establishing itself as a lifestyle product that changes the drinking experience itself,
and collaborating with global brands such as Heineken, Marriott, and White Claw.
It is being utilized in various markets.
The current flagship product, DraftTop LIFT, is a can opener with a patented structure that separates the top of the can to create a wide drinking surface, enhancing aroma, openness, and garnish usability.
Unlike simple low-cost products, it has been perfected through years of product improvement.
As the latest model, it is currently being sold in over 50 countries worldwide.
Reason for Wadiz Funding
& Plan for Use of Funds
The reason for funding DraftTop LIFT on Wadiz
is not simply to sell the product.
We believed that this product fits well with Korea's home drinking, highball, camping, and picnic culture.
We thought it could offer a new drinking experience.
Canned beverages are already the most familiar form of drink in our daily lives.
However, most people have only drunk canned beverages through the small tab opening.
DraftTop LIFT allows you to enjoy that familiar canned beverage in a completely different way.
By opening the top of the can wide and adding ice, lemon, lime, or mint,
the moment you use the can itself as a cup, the drink you always have turns into a new experience.
Wadiz is a platform where supporters who recognize new products first gather. For products like DraftTop LIFT, which are intuitive to use and whose value is felt more when experienced directly, we determined that introducing them through Wadiz is the most suitable.
In addition, some similar low-cost imitation products are already being distributed domestically. However, we wanted to officially introduce not just a product that looks similar, but the genuine DraftTop LIFT that has been improved over many years by DraftTop in the United States.
We wanted to officially introduce the authentic DraftTop LIFT, which has been refined over a long period by DraftTop in the United States.
This funding Through Supporters' Reactions Check, Korean Market Suitable Color Configuration, Set Configuration, Usage Content, Future Accessory Lineup Expand To go out We would like to.
