Lemon Perfect: Hufnagel’s Entrepreneurial Journey
Founded in 2017, Lemon Perfect’s valuation has skyrocketed over the years. The brand is now at a $100 million-plus valuation, and Hufnagel’s goal is to reach a $5 billion valuation by disrupting the enhanced water market with a new, scalable beverage.
“We’re bottled in 100% recycled plastic, and we’re organic. I think we’ve got magic inside the bottle. When people drink the brand, they come back in a big way, and the data would suggest that.”

“One night, I googled, ‘How to start a beverage company,’ and here we are,” he stated on the Joe Pump Show.
Hufnagel is very optimistic when talking about Lemon Perfect and its near future.
“Flavor knows no boundaries,” he stated. “Old and young, rich and poor, —I don’t care what you look like, where you shop, how much money you make—we can be a product for you. How exciting is that?”
