Stanford-Start X Fund has put its weight behind Oh My Green's seed round, which also attracted a host of venture capital firms.
US-based healthy meals supplier Oh My Green has obtained $20m in a seed round backed by Stanford-StartX Fund, the venture capital arm of Stanford University-affiliated StartX accelerator, TechCrunch reported today.
Initialized Capital, Powerplant Ventures, Talis Capital, ZhenFund and Backed VC also contributed to the funding round.
Founded in 2014, Oh My Green curates healthy food products and kitchen equipment for businesses, selecting its range on the basis of a nutrition scale invented by Pamela Peeke, an assistant professor of medicine at University of Maryland.
Oh My Green currently has 200 customers and is available in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, Austin, Denver, Boston, New York City and Nashville. The funding will help the company enter additional US markets and prepare for longer-term international expansion.
Oh My Green graduated from StartX in 2014 before joining Y Combinator in 2016, receiving $120,000 in funding from the latter and undisclosed investors in exchange for 7% equity.
