Interest in the Entrex Process expands to the LOHAS Marketplace

Chicago, IL (09-23-2005) Entrex (www.entrex.net), the information marketplace for private companies, has generated interest in the Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS www.lohas.com) marketplace. LOHAS describes a $228.9 billion U.S. marketplace for goods and services focused on health, the environment, social justice, personal development and sustainable living. The consumers attracted to this market have been collectively referred to as Cultural Creatives and represent a sizable group in this country. Approximately 30 percent of the adults in the U.S., or 63 million people, are currently considered LOHAS Consumers.

As with all types of private companies, LOHAS—a market conservatively estimated at $228.9 billion in the U.S., and growing--companies are also interested in alternate means to raise capital. "Our goal is to partner with mission oriented companies to accelerate long term growth." says LOHAS fund manager. The LOHAS fund manager will utilize the Entrex process, which will allow LOHAS companies to gain creditability and exposure, to help determine the value of a company, bundle select companies into one LOHAS mutual fund and in turn create an alternate means to raise capital for high-growth, private companies.
