A Love Brand Story

We know all about love brands: Our sister company Katjes is not only writing success stories as a brand, it is also a pioneer for green food: Since 2016, all Katjes products have been vegetarian, and by now, the majority of the product range is vegan.

Therefore, we primarily invest in innovative food concepts that bring joy to people and revolutionize the food industry. With our expertise and the Katjes Group network, we create charismatic brands: future-ready brands for a future-ready lifestyle.

We place particular emphasis on the following criteria when working with start-ups:

Future Food

Gut health, clean eating and low calorie diets: Healthy nutrition is individual. And self-determination is a massive trend in food culture. Everybody individually defines indulgence. With our portfolio, we want to help provide individual solutions for every individual.

Healthy Planet

A healthy lifestyle creates a healthy planet. That’s true. A reduced consumption of CO2-intensive foods, such as meat or cow’s milk, also allow our planet to breathe easier in the long run. The brands in our portfolio are working on the development of innovative products that sustainably save resources and help each individual change their own diet with joy and ease.

Sustainable Economy

Change doesn’t happen overnight. If you want to achieve real change, you also have to create real alternatives. That is the goal of our investments. We focus on food innovations that address people’s needs: Pleasure without sacrifice, ecological action without the moral pointing finger. If we work together to flip the switch in our minds, we can leave green footprints in the long run.

With the acquisition of Genius, UK market leader in ready-made baked goods, we completed our first majority investment in 2022 – an important step for us as a VC. In the future, we will continue to be open to investments of this kind in order to help shape the future of the food industry with full power. But: The majority of our investments are smaller and as individual as the ideas and founders behind them.

 

We invest in people and added value, not a cookie-cutter approach.

For our joint success you will both receive financial support and know-how!

With our sister company Katjes by our side, we can offer the experience of over 70 years in the food industry. As a strong and award-winning brand with a sense of sustainable action and an international strategy, we take brands and products to the next level.
