The funding has come from a pre-seed round led by HVB 88 Angels, a US-based angel fund, along with a private investor also based in the US. According to Zinda, the second tranche of the pre-seed round is set to bring in another six-figure capital injection from a Singapore-based private equity fund in May.<\/p>\n

The business, which retails filled wraps through Tesco, Budgens and Londis stores nationwide, said the investment will used to support new retailer listings with other major multiples and the launch of its AirWrap flatbread. The company also confirmed a \u2018large spend\u2019 on building its marketing and sales team as well as NPD and a refresh of brand and marketing activity.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a massive milestone for Zinda at a time when Covid brought us down to our knees,\u201d said Anishya Kumar, founder of the business. \u201cWe were resilient through the pandemic and now since the worst is over, the support of HVB 88 will help us pivot and grow exponentially.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zinda added that the involvement of HVB 88 as strategic equity investor would open further opportunities though its \u2018vast network of diverse expertise\u2019 across geographies and industry verticals.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur investment in Zinda Foods five-ingredient AirWrap, UK\u2019s first all-natural commercially produced wheat flour wrap, is the best option in the market and we are glad to be part of this journey and witness their growth plans to make this available in all stores across the UK and beyond,\u201d said Siddharth Jain and Porus Doctor, co-founders from HVB 88 Angels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
