Ready Burger targets global growth

Ready Burger has launched an investment round to further progress its goal of becoming a major player within the global vegan food market. It has set a target to raise a minimum of £250,000 through a new crowdfunding round.
The money will support the opening of its first sit-in premises in south east England and help with the rollout of its plant-based product range, developed through MNB Kitchen, into foodservice and retail outlets across the UK. This year, the company is working towards developing further new flavours and progressing with new food technology partnerships.
Since it began trading in 2021, the London-headquartered company has sold nearly 500,000 plant-based vegan food products and generated over £1m in revenues. It currently operates its pilot store in the UK capital serving 100% plant-based fast food made from high-quality proteins.
Max Miller, Ready Burger chief executive officer, said: “This investment round will assist us in further scaling the business by exploring opportunities for our retail and foodservice offering, and developing new market opportunities for the high-quality plant-based food products we have created. We will also invest in further food technology innovations to ensure we are continually focused on delivering the healthiest and tastiest products.
“With the plant-based food market set to double in size in the next five years, we see huge growth opportunities, initially in the UK and ultimately on a global scale, for the business going forward.”
