Healthy Fridge accelerates rollout with €1 million growth capital

January 27, 2026
Healthy Fridge, the scale-up that makes fresh, healthy, and tasteful meals accessible 24/7 in the workplace, has raised €1 million in growth capital. The investment round was led by existing shareholders Value Factory Ventures and the Brabant Development Agency (BOM), supplemented with crowdfunding via Broccoli. The capital will be used for the further rollout of smart fridges and the development of range and technology.

With this investment, Healthy Fridge takes the next step toward a nationwide network of more than 1,500 fridges. This accelerates the company's mission to provide employees, students, and visitors with access to fresh, tasty, and healthy food at any time of the day.

Contribution to a Vital Work Environment

Healthy Fridge responds to the growing attention to vitality in the workplace. More and more organizations no longer see healthy food as an extra, but as an essential part of good employment practice. “By making a healthy and attractive offer available 24/7, Healthy Fridge supports employees in making better food choices, even outside regular lunch hours. This contributes to the energy, focus, and sustainable employability of employees,” says René Bink, founder of Healthy Fridge. For HR and facility managers, Healthy Fridge is thus a concrete tool to make vitality policy visible and practical, especially at locations where no company restaurant is available or where employees work in shifts.

This is How Healthy Fridge Works in Practice

Healthy Fridge is an intelligent, chilled vending solution where technology and fresh food come together. Users choose via a touchscreen from a varied grab & go assortment of meals, salads, soups, wraps, dairy, and snacks. Payment is contactless, after which the product is automatically dispensed. What is unique is that Healthy Fridge has full control over the chain: from its own production and recipe development to data-driven planning, logistics, and daily supply. Based on real-time sales data and forecasts, fridges are replenished with ultra-fresh products, with minimal waste.

Healthy Fridge makes delicious, fresh, and healthy food easily accessible 24/7. The company responds to our ambition to help people age healthily. By investing, we contribute to further scaling up, so that Healthy Fridge can grow into the Dutch market leader in this segment.
