About SWZLE

SWZLE got its start as a napkin idea at Soho House in Chicago in 2018, when Phil Causgrove, former director of business development for Bucketfeet, approached Ryan Mundy, former NFL star and founder of Techlete Ventures. Inspired by the Seattle initiative to ban all plastic straws, Causgrove and Mundy made a case for environmental change to reduce waste, specifically by reducing single-use plastics. In October 2020, 4Honor Brands, LLC, an honorable family company founded by honorable people, for honorable people, acquired SWZLE. When you purchase your stainless steel straws from SWZLE, you don’t just get reusable straws, you also get a great looking carrying case for your straw that you can take with you anywhere you go! But we’re not going to stop there. You can look forward to more great things from SWZLE in the future. 10-15 years ago, not many people carried reusable water bottles with them, and now it is common to see the majority of people with a reusable water bottle on their desk, in hand, in a bag, or their car, etc. As more cities and states outlaw single-use plastic straws, the demand for reusable straws to be portable will increase.Read their story
