“At Mosaic, our mission is simple: we want to help put good food on every table,” said Matt Davis, CEO and co-founder of Mosaic. “Many people want to eat more balanced diets but obstacles like cost, taste, time, and accessibility often prove insurmountable. We started Mosaic to make plant-based eating as easy as takeout and as affordable as home cooking. Over the last two years, we’ve brought innovative meals to market and scaled our business considerably. Today, we’re thrilled to welcome new financial partners into our mission and work together to create more delicious opportunities for consumers to embrace plant-based eating through frozen food.”
“Mosaic Foods is a clear leader in the fast-growing, plant-based foods industry,” said Adam Slutsky, founder and partner of Gather Ventures. “I’ve been familiar with the brand since its launch in 2019 and am continually impressed with its approach to the market and growth.
