In these 26 food and beverage Series C rounds (sorted by round date desc), the disclosed sizes are highly uneven: UPSIDE Foods raised $400M on 2022-04-21, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts (Owner.com at $120M on 2025-05-13, and Viome at $87M on 2023-08-18). The smallest disclosed amount is NutriLeads at $5M on 2023-12-18, placing most other rounds in a mid-range below the top tier.
The date window is long, spanning 2021-04-13 (Chickapea) through 2025-05-13 (Biryani Blues; Owner.com), with a dense cluster in May 2025: two Series C rounds both dated 2025-05-13 (Biryani Blues at $5M and Owner.com at $120M). Geography is also concentrated, with India showing multiple entries across cities (Gurgaon and Noida appear more than once), while the United States accounts for several large rounds in California and nearby states (e.g., UPSIDE Foods $400M in Berkeley and OLIPOP $50M in Oakland). One amount is undisclosed (Mid-Day Squares on 2022-04-06).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed Series C round here, and how far above the rest is it?
UPSIDE Foods’ $400M round on 2022-04-21 is the only disclosed amount in the $400M range and substantially above the next-largest disclosed amounts: Owner.com at $120M (2025-05-13) and Viome at $87M (2023-08-18).
Are there notable date clusters among the most recent entries?
Yes. Two rounds close on the same day at the top of the list—2025-05-13—with Biryani Blues at $5M and Owner.com at $120M. More broadly, rounds span 2021-04-13 (Chickapea) to 2025-05-13, indicating activity across multiple years rather than a single quarter.
Do any cities or geographies appear more frequently in this set?
India repeats across multiple cities, notably Gurgaon (Biryani Blues on 2025-05-13 and Slurrp Farm on 2024-01-08) and Noida (Farmley on 2025-05-12 and Biryani By Kilo on 2023-12-04). The United States also shows repeated presence in California (UPSIDE Foods in Berkeley, OLIPOP in Oakland, Everytable in Los Angeles, and others).
Which entries are closest to the bottom of disclosed amounts, and is the low end an outlier?
The smallest disclosed amount is NutriLeads at $5M on 2023-12-18, with Biryani Blues also at $5M on 2025-05-13. Beyond these two, disclosed rounds generally sit above $7M, with several clustered between about $14M and $52M (e.g., ModifyHealth $14M on 2024-12-04; THIS $25M on 2024-06-17; Swingers $52M on 2023-07-26).
Are there any undisclosed amounts or other outliers that could affect analysis?
One row uses an undisclosed amount: Mid-Day Squares on 2022-04-06. Separately, the size outliers are structural rather than geographic: UPSIDE Foods at $400M (2022-04-21) is far above the rest, while other large rounds like Owner.com $120M (2025-05-13) and Tipa $70M (2022-01-02) remain in lower ranges than UPSIDE Foods.
