About the FundedIQ Food and Beverage startup funding data in Germany

FundedIQ tracks announced startup funding rounds and organises them by company, funding date, stage, amount, industry, location and investor.

Rounds whose amount was not disclosed (3 of 7 in that period) are counted as rounds but excluded from capital totals and from the median. The most recent round on record for funded Food and Beverage startups in Germany is dated Feb 2026.

The table above shows the 36 most recently funded companies. Full funding histories, investor lists and founder contacts across the whole dataset open on a FundedIQ plan.
