Italy's Biorsaf raises €5.2M Series A, acquires foodtech firm Cooki

What's the deal? Italian food RegTech company Biorsaf has raised €5.2 million in a Series A round led by P101. Alongside the raise, Biorsaf is acquiring foodtech company Cooki, whose tools cover traceability, labeling, cost management, and allergen control.

What does it do? Founded in 2021 in Castell'Azzara, Tuscany, Biorsaf digitises food safety, workplace safety, and water quality processes. Its BS-Safe platform automates inspections and manages regulatory requirements, with a focus on HACCP processes.

The traction: More than 10,000 users now use the platform. Customers include Compagnia Generale Ristorazione — owner of Old Wild West, America Graffiti, and Wiener Haus — and Italian retail chain Conad.

Why Cooki? Founded in 2017 by Giuseppe Grammatico, Cooki is active in more than 450 Italian cities and has over 1,000 users. Its database holds more than 35,000 coded products covering traceability, labeling, food costing, inventory management, and allergens.

What's the endgame? The combined platform aims to cover much of the data and compliance work across the food value chain — from HACCP and quality management to traceability, nutritional values, and cost analysis. Artificial intelligence is central to the plan, with Biorsaf already building a specialised AI agent for professional consultants.

Why now? The capital funds a three-year growth plan focused on expanding Biorsaf's AI-based platform for the food industry.

The signal: At €5.2 million, this Series A sits mid-pack among comparable rounds, but pairing fresh capital with an acquisition signals consolidation in Italy's food compliance software niche — where fragmented tools are converging into single platforms.
