Talking point: Founded in 2015, Full Harvest is an online marketplace for surplus and imperfect produce. It previously raised an US$8.5-million Series A, as well as a US$2-million seed round. Telus’s investment director, Jay Crone, joined Full Harvest’s board and will help the company grow. The company will benefit from Telus Agriculture’s knowledge as it uses the funds to build out its marketplace and data-and market insights offerings, as well as triple its tech and product staff in 2022. Telus Ventures looks to invest in several areas, including agtech, and looks for firms that are strategically aligned with Telus’s mandate, including combining social and financial impact. “Telus Ventures is committed to supporting companies that make the food supply chain safe, efficient, and sustainable,” said Crone in a statement to The Logic.
