Painterland Sisters has successfully completed its seed funding round, aimed at bolstering the growth of its emerging U.S. skyr business. However, the exact amount raised has not been disclosed.
The funding initiative was spearheaded by angel investment groups, including The Angel Group, its partner fund Supernatural Ventures, and Spacestation Investments, as announced in a statement from the skyr company on August 26.
These funds will serve as essential working capital to enhance operations and foster “innovation” following the brand’s recent national launch at Whole Foods Market last month. In the words of Adam Spriggs, a founding member of The Angel Group and managing partner at Supernatural Ventures, Painterland Sisters “checks every box for us.” He emphasized, “It’s a brand with proven traction, strong fundamentals, and founders who are all-in on a mission that truly resonates.”
Additionally, Scoop Ventures took part in the funding round, alongside a selection of independent angel investors, which included Olympic medalists, professional athletes, and notable industry leaders. The brand has gained backing from various figures in lifestyle branding, natural food brokerage, organic retail, and produce distribution, notably including Kari Pedriana of Green Spoon Sales, Terry Brett of Kimberton Whole Foods, and David Hollinger of Four Seasons Produce.
Investment has also come 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 seeks to connect consumers directly with their food sources while championing organic regenerative agriculture.
The company’s skyr yogurts are available in multiple flavors, including Vanilla Bean, Savannah’s Peach, Blueberry Lemon, and Strawberry Fields. In 2024 alone, the brand sold over 5.7 million cups and is now present in more than 5,000 stores nationwide.
This latest funding round builds on a previous $1.2 million raise completed through Wefunder in 2024, which garnered support from over 700 investors backing the business.
