Stokelp, the start-up committed to fighting food waste, has recently raised €3 million in funding!
Founded in 2021 by Tanguy de Cottignies and William Launay, Stokelp has created a unique marketplace enabling food manufacturers to resell their surplus fruit, vegetables, meat and fish, thus avoiding their waste.
This second round of financing was carried out with the participation of renowned investors such as OneRagtime, AFI Ventures, Rothschild & Co and Better Angle. These strategic partners recognize Stokelp's potential to bring significant change to the food industry. In 2022, Stokelp had already raised 0.5 million euros. This first round of financing was carried out with several investors: High Flyer Capital, Alliance For Impact, Business Angel…
Thanks to this capital injection, Stokelp plans to expand its activities in Germany, one of the biggest players in the agri-food sector. This international expansion is in line with Stokelp's vision of becoming a global solution in Europe. Moreover, the company plans to double its workforce by the end of the year and multiply its sales by six, reaching 20 million euros by 2024.
In addition to the resale of surplus food products, Stokelp plans to add new functionalities to its platform, such as flexible payment solutions and a "raw materials exchange". These initiatives will ease the burden on manufacturers' cash flow, while opening up new business opportunities.
We are proud to support Stokelp in its mission to reduce food waste. Jacques Haccoun, Michael Bonnaud and Antoine Naudo from our transaction services team carried out the financial due diligence.
