Oats Overnight, the US retail and online business, has raised $35m in a new funding round from a group of investors.
The Series B financing builds on the circa $20m-plus the oatmeal shakes maker received last year, which was used to fund a new factory in Phoenix, Arizona.
That 86,000-square-foot facility opened in June, adding to the company’s inaugural plant, a 62,000-square-foot site in West Chester, Ohio.
Oats Overnight, set up in 2016 by former professional poker player Brian Tate, said the fresh funds will “support the build-out of the company’s manufacturing, fulfilment, and product development capabilities”.
Since starting out, Oats Overnight said it has introduced more than 50 flavours of its spoon-free, high-protein and gluten-free oatmeal drinks. The company first tests the market with its approximately 250,000 subscribers before rolling out new products online and in retail.
Bricks-and-mortar customers include Walmart, Target and Whole Foods Market.
