# Revo Foods scales patented multi-nozzle 3D food printing

[Austrian foodtech company Revo Foods](https://www.voxelmatters.com/revo-foods-opens-worlds-largest-3d-food-printing-facility-in-vienna/) has targeted profitability by the third quarter of 2027 as it scales its patented 3D printing process for plant-based fish and chicken alternatives. The Vienna-based company runs six printers that can produce a claimed one food item every three seconds, and is raising €2 million ($2.3m) to support growth.

David Petuzzi, Chief Executive Officer at Revo Foods, said the company expected sales growth of 80% to 90% in 2026, following triple-digit growth in 2025. Revo closed the first half with revenue up 70% year over year and expected annual sales of about €1.5 million ($1.7m). “Our goal is to become profitable by Q3 of next year,” Petuzzi said.

Revo initially reproduced the texture of salmon by integrating protein and fat into layers, then expanded into other seafood alternatives and launched El Pollo, a chicken alternative made with third-party [mycoprotein](https://www.voxelmatters.com/mycorena-and-revo-foods-develop-3d-printable-mycoprotein/).

The company has converted 3D food printing from a batch process into continuous production. Each printer carries 16 nozzles, allowing one machine to make eight fillets simultaneously, and the same equipment alternates between whitefish, salmon and chicken alternatives.

Revo plans to add printers and nozzles rather than buy larger industrial equipment, [a modular approach that allows individual machines to go offline without stopping the line](https://www.voxelmatters.com/revo-foods-launches-food-fabricator-x2-for-high-volume-3d-food-printing/). Petuzzi said components for each printer cost about €25,000 ($29,000), and the company estimates a return on investment of less than two months for additional machines.

## Funding and breaking even

Revo has secured €1 million ($1.2m) of the round so far, [and previously raised capital from business angels, crowdfunding and Austrian public grants](https://www.voxelmatters.com/revo-foods-and-paleo-partnership-receives-e2-2-million-in-funding/). Petuzzi said venture capital investors are increasingly seeking plant-based companies able to reach very large valuations, so Revo was also looking toward family offices and business angels.

“We just need another million, and with this, we can achieve break even,” Petuzzi said.

Germany and Austria generate about 80% of revenue, with growth coming from new retail listings and stronger sales at existing stores, though Petuzzi said performance varied significantly by location.

In the US, Revo entered the market through a partnership with Slovenian alternative protein company Juicy Marbles, which sold Revo's salmon and whitefish alternatives under its own brand.
