I’ve known Dustin since the start of Ka-Pop! and my firm Consumer Ventures has been an investor across several rounds since the merger, including leading the recent Series A financing. It has been amazing to see the progress over the past few years and the positive impact the merger has had on the company. The amount and speed of innovation and great new products Awakened Foods has launched (enabled by the internal R&D and manufacturing capabilities) has been extremely impressive, and I’ve had a front-row seat to the fantastic reception by both consumers and retailers. Awakened Foods is not just a platform for growing a great food business, it is an opportunity to help bring healthier eating to families across the country…and increase the sustainability of our food systems in the progress!
Invested $200,000 this round & $400,000 previously
