Does anyone know of any venture capital or early stage growth equity firms that are focused on the consumer space? Seems like it is not an industry that gets much attention. Thanks in advance.

interested as well if anyone can help out. thanks!
I assume you mean consumer goods companies instead of consumer Internet? Highland has a pretty good team and dedicated fund for consumer products. There aren't many others though. It's a challenging sector for VC because they're more capital intensive and generally slower growth, which is a bad combination for early stage venture.
this is definitely true, but more than ever before start up consumer companies are able to lease production facilities and quickly gain distribution.

I second Highland. Were early into LULU and some other big names.
Maveron. They cite themselves as "consumer-only venture capital"
Stripes Group does both tech and consumer
Found this thread from 5+ years ago. Anyone have an updated list of respected consumer VCs? Either firms or individuals.
