Rocketo fundraises to grow brand

Rocketo, the dehydrated-raw dog food brand, has launched a six-figure crowdfunding campaign to grow its presence and develop new products.

The organic, nutrition-focused brand was launched in 2018 by entrepreneur Arunas Matacius, along with British entrepreneur and qualified veterinarian Andrew Bucher.

Rocketo plans to use the funds to upscale its production in Lithuania, invest in brand-building activity, explore further markets and develop new products.

Matacius said: “Through this investment round, where we are aiming to raise a significant six-figure sum, we intend to create a community of individuals who share our values and want to help promote the ethos of our brand.

“We will use the funds to grow Rocketo’s presence, both in core markets such as the UK and EU and across other parts of the globe. As well as scaling up production and developing new products, we will also target brick and mortar retailers, where there’s a huge opportunity to grow our presence within organic food sections.”
