Gastrofy has closed seed investment round of 3 million SEK
Gastrofy has successfully closed a seed investment of 3 million SEK. Cronus Invest led the investment, together with the U.S based company 1Apeiron. With the additional capital Gastrofy will hire key personnel and continue develop their value proposition.
"We love the simplicity with the grocery box model, but we believe that “one size fits all” isn’t applicable with food. Everyone has their own preferences and we aim to satisfy them in a personalised way." Says Robin Rendahl, co-founder and CEO of Gastrofy.
Sweden is the birthplace for the grocery box model, and many tech success stories like Skype, Spotify and Klarna. This makes Sweden the perfect starting market for Gastrofy. Gastrofy has partnerd with the Swedish grocery chain COOP, that today handle the packing and delivering of the groceries.
"We hope our existing customers like our upcoming new design and is as enthusiastic as us about the new services and features that will be launched in the coming months." - Robin Rendahl
Soheil Amor Pour, president of Cronus Invest, joins as a board member and takes a leading position in the new investment round:
"Gastrofy is a great example of the new generation service company with a professional team and a clear vision. The modern online grocery services has educated the market and proved that it is ready for a service that takes the next step and adapts to the individual's specific needs. We believe that our experience and know-how, together with the team, we have a great possibility to build tomorrow's "Netflix for food""
Alesandro Annoscia, the first angel investors in Gastrofy, on the new investment round:
"Gastrofy has a worldwide technology that fills a gap in the market. Along with the new investors, the team now have a good foundation to grow rapidly from. I am confident that they will soon get to play an important role in the international grocery bag/online food space."
