Jack & Annie’s Closes $23M; Aims to Make Jackfruit Hero Among Meat Alternatives

Jack & Annie’s, a sustainable, animal meat alternative brand made from jackfruit, announced Tuesday $23 million in Series B funding.

The round was co-led by Creadev and Desert Bloom and included participation from Wheatsheaf and existing investors Beta Angels and InvestEco. Company founder and CEO Annie Ryu told TechCrunch the company had not done announcements of previous funding rounds and declined to disclose the company’s total raise to date, but did say this round “was more than we raised in any prior rounds accumulatively.”
