Tempty Foods develops food products using mushroom roots (mycelium) positioned as a distinct category rather than meat imitations. The company entered COOP Denmark at the start of 2026 and has launched in Sweden with plans to expand to over 100 additional locations in April, indicating early retail traction. Financially, it completed a 5.2M DKK Seed round backed by EIFO with participation from DanBAN, Angella Invest and all existing investors, and is co-developing an organic, allergen-free line supported by a 1M DKK Plantefonden grant. Management has signaled the capital will be used to scale domestic distribution, accelerate Nordic expansion, and bring the next product line to market. The company is also running a Republic Europe pre-registration campaign to enable additional shareholders from its network.
