"It is rare to come across a unique restaurant concept like Joe & the Juice that offers such a well-loved and high-quality product and that also travels so well across geographies. We are very excited about the company's opportunity to expand its presence beyond Europe," said Andrew Crawford of General Atlantic.

"Joe & the Juice will be our first retail and consumer investment in EMEA, which speaks volumes to the confidence we have in Kaspar, his team of dedicated employees, and in our conviction that we can be a strong strategic resource to the company. We look forward to partnering with the Joe & the Juice team and Valedo in the company's next phase of growth," said Melis Kahya of General Atlantic.
