 Made In Chlesea's Verity Bowditch and Youtube personality Mikey Pearce Clean Kitchen Club to open in Soho and Battersea
Plant-based food brand Clean Kitchen Club has so far raised £2m in its seed funding round, boosted by investments from people including former CEO of McDonald’s Steve Easterbrook, and ex-chairman of Quorn Clive Sharpe.

In addition, it will close the funding round via a week-long crowd fund starting on 8 August, the pre-registration period of which has already seen an additional £2m pledged.

The funds raised will be used to help Clean Kitchen Club realise its plans to launch multiple sites nationwide, including a restaurant on Soho’s Old Compton Street at the end of this month and a 2,441sq ft flagship restaurant at Battersea Power Station in August.

Five further sites are slated to open in 2022, including in Manchester and Brighton.

The company also intends to grow the catering sides of business and introduce of a new line of ready meals and grab and go items into supermarkets.

Clean Kitchen Club was launched in June 2020​ by Made In Chlesea's Verity Bowditch and Youtube personality Mikey Pearce and operates venues in Wembley, Camden, and Notting Hill.

“From the moment we launched Clean Kitchen from my aunt’s kitchen in Brighton we have been on a mission to bring plant-based food to the mainstream. The success of our vegan takes on the grab & go classics has surpassed even our wildest dreams,” says Pearce.

“The fact that so many have joined us on this journey, not just in a monetary sense but in advice and practical support, has been the icing on the cake.”

Clean Kitchen Club launched an initial round of funding in November 2021, raising £1.1m and leading it to achieve a £12m valuation.
