Painterland Sisters has completed its seed funding round, with the proceeds lined up to support the fledgling US skyr business’ growth.
The amount raised was not disclosed.
The funding round was led by angel investment groups The Angel Group, its partner fund Supernatural Ventures and Spacestation Investments, according to a statement issued by the skyr firm on 26 August.
The funds will be utilised as working capital to facilitate operations and “innovation” following the company’s national launch into Whole Foods Market last month.
Adam Spriggs, founding member at The Angel Group and managing partner at Supernatural Ventures, said: “Painterland Sisters checks every box for us.
“It’s a brand with proven traction, strong fundamentals, and founders who are all-in on a mission that truly resonates.”
Scoop Ventures also participated in the round, alongside independent angel investors, including Olympic medalists, professional athletes, lifestyle entrepreneurs, and “industry leaders”.
The Painterland Sisters brand has received support from various industry figures and entrepreneurs, involved in lifestyle branding, natural food brokerage, organic retail and produce distribution.
They include Kari Pedriana of Green Spoon Sales, Kimberton Whole Foods founder Terry Brett and David Hollinger of Four Seasons Produce.
The brand has also attracted investment from Maddie Serviente, an analyst at The Angel Group, and her partner, actor Scott Eastwood.
Founded by fourth-generation dairy farmers Stephanie and Hayley Painter, Painterland Sisters aims to connect consumers directly with their food source while promoting organic regenerative agriculture.
The company skyr yogurts are available in a range of flavours such as Vanilla Bean, Savannah’s Peach, Blueberry Lemon and Strawberry Fields.
In 2024, the brand sold over 5.7 million cups and is now available in more than 5,000 stores across all 50 states.
The latest funding round builds on a $1.2m raise completed through Wefunder in 2024, which saw support from more 700 investors backing the business.
