HUNGRY closed a $20M Series B funding round with some celebrity help
Summary
Launched in 2016, the company connects independent chefs with office and event catering gigs online. This latest funding round was led by Evolution Ventures and former Whole Foods co-CEO Walter Robb, who will join HUNGRY’s board of directors. HUNGRY currently operates in D.C., Philadelphia, Boston, New York and Atlanta, with a goal to be in 25 cities before the end of 2021. “What started as a mission to revolutionize the $60 billion office catering market has quickly snowballed into a life-changing, money-making endeavor for chefs across the country.” Like its Series A funding raise last April, this latest round gained a lot of support from celebrities. Some additional investors in the Series B funding round include: “Great founders, great mission, and they have achieved great success in short order,” Hart told Forbes in a recent feature about HUNGRY’s Series B.
