Its portfolio includes brands such as Faasos, Behrouz Biryani, Oven Story Pizza, and Lunchbox. It also has a partnership with Wendy’s.
KKR’s investment is part of its Asia Next Generation Technology strategy, which supports the growth of innovative companies throughout the Asia Pacific in sectors such as consumer technology, software and fintech.
Avendus Capital has played a pivotal role as the exclusive financial advisor to Rebel Foods during the transaction.
Rebel Foods co-founder and chief executive officer Jaydeep Barman said, “We are happy to welcome KKR as a strategic partner in our journey. We look to tap into KKR’s deep experience and global expertise to supercharge our continued growth. As we continue to scale, our focus remains firmly on innovation, sustainability and delivering long-term value for our customers and stakeholders.”

We look forward to leveraging our global network, local knowledge and operational and technology expertise to further scale the company’s ability to expand its portfolio and deliver novel products to meet consumers’ evolving preferences.”
In early December 2024 Rebel Foods also raised $210m in its Series G funding round, which included both secondary share sales and primary capital.
In August 2024, the company announced plans to expand its services to 120 cities in India by 2026.
