SevenVentures invests in sustainable online food retailer Matsmart-Motatos
Unterf hring, November 20, 2023. SevenVentures, the investment arm of ProSiebenSat.1 and part of the Groups Commerce & Ventures segment, is taking a single-digit million stake in Matsmart-Motatos via a media-for-equity investment. SevenVentures will thus become the company's long-term strategic media partner. The investment is focused on further strengthening Matsmart-Motatos in the German speaking region.

Matsmart-Motatos sells food online at reduced prices, helping large manufacturers to bring their surplus stock to consumers in a sustainable way.
This year, SevenVentures is increasingly investing in start-ups in the food industry, thereby further expanding its broad expertise in this area.

In this way, SevenVentures supports Matsmart-Motatos in taking the next step in its development: creating more awareness in the German speaking region and further increasing brand recognition.
Florian Hirschberger, CEO SevenVentures: Our media investment in Matsmart-Motatos is an excellent example for our strategy. We are investing in an internationally successful company with an innovative and sustainable business model. TV presence will have a decisive impact for brand awareness and recognition - two vital elements for growing Matsmart-Motatos sustainable e-commerce business.

To match our ambitious targets, we are happy to have found strong partners. We are looking forward to great results coming from the collaboration with SevenVentures.
