Katjes Greenfood, the investment arm of the Katjes Group, wants to raise 25 million euros. The investor, whose holdings include The Rainforest Company, Haferkater and Vegdog, is issuing a corporate bond on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange to this end.

Katjes Greenfood is focusing primarily on start-ups that are active in the field of sustainable and plant-based nutrition. The capital from the bond is to flow into new and existing investments. Katjes Greenfood also plans to repay a bridge loan it took out this year to acquire Genius Foods, a British manufacturer of gluten-free baked goods.

"With a strong investment and financing structure behind us, we currently have a variety of opportunities in dynamic markets for growth investments in existing and new holdings," said Katjes Greenfood CFO Marius Rodert: "Katjes Group will remain fully committed financially and strategically and will continue to support the expansion of our portfolio."
