The company raised capital from Innovate UK and private backers to scale production and meet growing demand.
"We are delighted to have secured the funding to scale Limetrack up to meet the needs of UK organisations facing multiple pressures to reduce cost and measure food waste. A big thank you to all our investors. Their backing will allow us to move much faster – manufacturing at scale, deepening integration and delivering the frictionless, trustworthy data our rapidly growing customer base requires. We aim to make food waste measurement effortless so that businesses can report with confidence, while cutting costs and carbon emissions. With 10.7 million tonnes of food wasted each year in the UK there is a huge opportunity, and the recent introduction of Simpler Recycling legislation means there is a legal necessity for most businesses, as well as an economic incentive. DEFRA projects 2.2 million UK sites will be affected in 2025, growing to 6.2 million by 2027. It’s been a brilliant journey so far, but we’re only just getting started. Of the 1.7 million UK and 10.3 million European commercial sites suitable for Limetrack’s SMART Bins, fewer than 40% currently use any form of food waste bin, providing a significant further market. Our immediate focus is on scaling across the UK before expanding into Europe in 2027."

"Companies shouldn’t have to bet their entire compute infrastructure on one chipmaker. "

The funding comes from a cohort of sector veterans and entrepreneurs.
