Dutch food technology startup Revyve has generated nearly €24 million in Series B financing, bringing its total capital raised to more than €40 million. The investment will accelerate the Wageningen, Netherlands-headquartered company’s commercial rollout of functional yeast proteins designed to replace eggs and additives in mainstream food categories.
The Series B round was co-led by ABN AMRO Sustainable Impact Fund and Invest-NL with regional support from Brabantse Ontwikkelings Maatschappij (BOM) and strategic investments by Lallemand Bio-Ingredients’ Swiss affiliate Danstar Ferment and Grey Silo Ventures (CVC of Cereal Docks Group). Existing investors Oost NL and Royal Cosun doubled down on their commitment. This diverse investor base combines institutional, public, and strategic expertise to back Revyve’s mission of reshaping and transforming the alternative protein space by powering next-gen clean-label solution.
Solutions for Changing Food Landscape
Revyve produces highly functional yeast proteins that mimic the performance of eggs in food sectors such as bakery, sauces, alternative meat and plant-based dairy. Unlike many substitutes, its ingredients are natural, more sustainable, and price competitive, helping manufacturers respond to three pressing industry challenges:
• Rising egg costs. Volatile pricing is driving demand for affordable and price stable alternatives.
• Scrutiny of Ultra-Processed Foods. Brands are under pressure to eliminate additives while keeping functionality.
• Sustainability. Major retail chains and food manufacturers are demanding cuts to CO₂ footprints across the supply chain.
“Food manufacturers are cutting back on eggs to offset increasing prices and reach sustainability targets, but replicating their unique functionality is crucial to maintaining the texture and mouthfeel consumers are used to. This is exactly where our Yeast Proteins come in, providing an affordable and clean label solution for egg replacement or egg reduction,” said Cedric Verstraeten, chief executive officer of Revyve. “This funding round marks a tipping point, allowing us to modularly scale production and branch out to more food categories and serve sustainable solutions to larger customers worldwide.”
Scaling Production in the Netherlands
In 2024, Revyve commissioned its first-of-a-kind production facility in Dinteloord, the Netherlands. Already running at capacity for several customers, the site has proven the company’s ability to produce and sell industrial volumes. With this new investment, Revyve will expand output to over 1,600 tons per year, ensuring reliable supply for global accounts.
“Strong regional support from both the Wageningen and Brabant ecosystems has enabled us to scale to industrial levels in record time,” said Verstraeten. “With a stellar team and strong investor backing, we have an incredibly solid foundation for global expansion.”
Looking Ahead
With industrial production in full swing, Revyve is already serving customers across Europe, the UK, USA, Canada, Mexico and Australia. Building on this momentum, the company will showcase its latest applications and partnerships this autumn at two major industry trade shows: Anuga (October 4-8 in Cologne, Germany, Hall 01.2 | Stand D028g-E029g); and Food ingredients Europe (December 2-4, in Paris, France, Stand #73J23).
