Scrumbles has already achieved significant growth to date, with revenues trebling since inception. In that time, the companies has secured listings for its pet food in major UK retailers, including Tesco, Waitrose, Sainsburys and Pets at Home, as well as establishing a successful direct-to-consumer channel and a strong online sales footprint.
It is also a certified UK B Corp, recognising the company’s high standards of verified performance, accountability and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.
We invested £6 million into Scrumbles in 2023, to support the continued growth of its omni-channel business model, as well as the expansion of its senior team, including a new Finance Director. As part of the deal, Mike Brehme (Founder of Clipper tea) joined the Scrumbles board as Non-Executive Chair, while BGF’s Daria Polunina joined as a Non-Executive Director.
