Share (styled as share) is a German consumer goods startup company and certified B Corporation with products in fast-moving consumer goods, banking and mobile telephony.[2] Based on the one for one model one needed item is given away for each item purchased.[3]

Share's launch in 2018 sparked widespread media attention mainly in Germany,[4][5][6][7] then Austria[8][9] and Italy.[10] In its first year of operation Share achieved a revenue of more than EUR 10 million making it the largest launch of a social consumer brand in Germany by that time.[1][11]

In 2021 Creadev, a French investment company controlled by Association Familiale Mulliez, acquired a stake in Share.[12] In 2022 and 2023 respectively, share was awarded "Strongest Startup-Brand" in Germany by a panel of over 40.000 consumers.[13][14]

In 2023 Share launched a financial service offering with ING bank[15] and a mobile telephony offering with Congstar.[16]

As of November 2023, Share products are available in retailers across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain and the Czech Republic and has donated over 150 million items to people in need.[3]
