London based food tech startup Growth Kitchen has secured £3m in seed funding led by PactVC. The round drew participation from a group of strategic investors, including several prominent figures from the food delivery and real estate sectors.
The fresh capital will support the company as it refines its delivery kitchen model and expands its network of hubs. Growth Kitchen aims to establish numerous locations across the UK and wider European markets over the coming years.
From the founder
"In a world where we take Ubers and watch Netflix, we’ve accepted cooking as the norm for too long. Building on the success of food delivery apps, we are introducing a step change in how we eat. We transform high-order-volume restaurants into delivery powerhouses by making it very easy for them to scale through our satellite kitchen network. With technology and data at their fingertips, our restaurant partners are becoming fully delivery optimised, providing a consistent, affordable experience to their customers, in a sustainable way and in an environment where employees actually want to come to work,"

Investor perspective
"What Growth Kitchen brings to the table is the natural evolution of food. Where Gorillas can deliver groceries to your door in 10-minutes, the logical next step would be to go into restaurant food. Within 5-minutes of visiting one of Growth Kitchen’s hubs, I knew I had finally found the team that had cracked the delivery kitchen model. They have the tech to find and operate across strategic locations, a steady flow of drivers coming in and out, while attracting top food brands who don’t churn and want to keep scaling with them."
