About Nicoya

Nicoya is a business-accelerating investment company focusing on FoodTech. We are driven by creating meaningful impact for people, planet and health. Nicoya is where emerging revolutionary FoodTech concepts are developed before landing on consumers’ plates. Together with passionate entrepreneurs, we will be part of the force transforming the global food system.

At Nicoya, we bring ideas to reality. We draw upon our deep industry knowledge in FMCG, brand strategy and finance to make informed consumer-driven investments in ambitious start-ups and scale-ups within the FoodTech industry. We target scalable and commercially viable companies that reimagine food production and distribution. As active investors, we join start-ups and scale-ups in their journey and navigate them through the arduous industry landscape. We streamline the start-ups’ / scale-ups’ acceleration path by developing their product proposition, route to market and strategy for delivering brand driven growth.

At Nicoya, we are driven by consumer behaviour and the underlying data. Companies often forget that in the end, the consumer is in the driver’s seat which often results in many product launches that don’t resonate with consumers. That is why consumer insights always are at the core of both our investment decisions and the acceleration journey of our portfolio companies.

We are Nicoya,
changing food for good.
