Plant-Based Instant Ramens

Immi Recently Raised $3.8 Million in Seed Funding

— October 7, 2021 — Eco
Immi is a plant-based instant ramen brand founded by Kevin Lee and Kevin Chanthasiriphan that recently secured $3.8 million in seed funding. The product comes in three flavors -- Spicy "Beef," Tom Yum "Shrimp," and Black Garlic "Chicken" -- and boasts low carbs, low sodium, high fiber, and an average of 22 grams of protein.

As the natural food category continues to grow and consumers seek more transparency in the supply chain and cleaner ingredients, Immi is posed to help reshape the instant ramen market. The brand hopes to bring its products to a more mainstream audience through marketing and distribution initiatives.

“We are also bringing in taste makers of culture, celebrities and TikTok influencers to broaden consumer interest and bring Immi into the mainstream cluster," said co-founder Kevin Lee.
