Portfolio company Yolk is targeting the £25bn food-to-go market.
In One Basket Limited (“Yolk”), is a profitable London food-to-go-brand on a mission to “rescue busy lives from loveless food” by serving restaurant quality sandwiches, speciality coffee and better breakfast options using high-quality ingredients.
Key Milestones
2014: founded as a popup. 2018: first permanent site; second in 2019.
2020-2021: successfully navigated Covid; redesigned operating model for improved efficiency. 2022-2025: built to a 10-site London portfolio.
October 2025: successfully completed CVA restructure, exiting 3 loss-making locations, streamlining head office and reducing legacy liabilities - leaving a profitable 7-site core.
End-2025: 7 retained sites generating c.£6.5m annualised revenue and c.35k customer visits per month, with +11% like-for-like sales growth over H2 2025. 2026 onwards: return to sustainable growth.
Investment Summary
Target Fundraise: £1m total (of which £600k is available to Your VC investors).
Pre-money valuation: £5m. This compares to the previous fundraising valuation of £15m following a strategic reset, creating a meaningful entry discount for new investors.
EIS status: EIS qualifying.
We empower investors to stay in control of their capital, choose the companies they back and share in their journey to success.
Unlike most VCs, we are not a fund — we combine institutional-grade diligence and attractive tax benefits with the opportunity to co-invest alongside some of the UK’s leading VC firms.

The Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) lets UK investors back growth companies with tax relief. Benefits include up to 30% income tax relief, plus Capital Gains, loss and Inheritance Tax advantages.
We want our investors to be fully aware of the downsides of investing as well as the potential benefits. It's therefore important to realise that investing always carries risks, including the loss of capital, illiquidity (the inability to sell assets quickly or without substantial loss in value), lack of dividends and share dilution. Alternative investments should still be made as part of a diversified portfolio.
