One that sparked the brightest was his long list of investments as the legend reached out to his newfound love for the boardroom, which kept his competitive spirit alive. Recently, he expanded his portfolio even wider by partnering with an instant commerce company, GoPuff, and added it to his already long list of investments.
After partnering with the brand, the former NFL quarterback endorsed it via an Instagram reel, where he applauded their quick and seamless delivery service. In the same video, he also shared the news of his investment in the startup, telling his fans that together he and GoPuff are creating something special.
Since my first time using Gopuff, I’ve been amazed by how fast and seamless the deliveries are, offering so many different options right at your fingertips. I’m excited to be working with the Gopuff team to continue to drive innovation and help create an even better experience for their customers.Tom Brady said
