Kafoodle raises £2 million to support health-tech growth
Tarryn Gorre, Kafoodle chief executive and co-founder, said: "We are thrilled to welcome Triple Point and Nexus as our new investors, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience of the education, healthcare and tech sectors.
“Securing investment from funds of the calibre of Triple Point and Nexus endorses what we have achieved to date. With their support, we believe Kafoodle can realise its full potential as a leading food-tech innovator.”
Kafoodle’s SaaS solutions helps commercial kitchens within hospitals, care homes and schools. The Kafoodle app helps public sector caterers to manage and communicate their food allergens, calculate nutrition and control costs. This helps to create a safer and more transparent food environment.
Last September the Kafoodle app was launched at Havering schools to support students with food allergies.
Julian Pickstone, head of Social Impact at Triple Point, added: “Triple Point is delighted to support Kafoodle’s continuing growth. We are excited by both its strong financial prospects and the significant social impact it can generate. We look forward to using our resources to support Kafoodle in the years ahead.”
Kafoodle also provide full labelling functionality in preparation for ‘Natasha’s Law’, which comes into force in October 2021.
