OUVC funds innovative, additive-free food preservation technology

Over just a few years, RoyalPaté has become one of the most promising names in Hungarian gastronomy. Its premium-quality goose liver products represent the highest standards and have already earned international recognition. The company uses eco-friendly, recyclable glass and paper-based packaging, and its products — completely free from additives — can be transported and stored without refrigeration, significantly reducing both the ecological footprint and logistics/export costs.

Previously backed by Hiventures Zrt., the company is now gaining fresh momentum thanks to a HUF 111.16 million investment from Obuda Uni Venture Capital (OUVC). The investment, provided in two tranches, will enable RoyalPaté to strengthen its sales team, develop its production processes, and launch targeted international expansion.

RoyalPaté produces its goods in its own Hungarian facility, without outsourcing, ensuring complete purity and preventing cross-contamination. The product range is made entirely from natural ingredients, free from preservatives, additives, gluten, and lactose, yet maintains its quality for up to two years at room temperature. The company’s IFS Food, Halal, and Kosher certifications confirm its premium standards. This reputation was further reinforced by a recent international success: its whole natural goose liver was named among the world’s best-quality products at the Great Taste Awards 2025, organized by the UK’s Guild of Fine Food.

The OUVC investment — a total of HUF 111.16 million, provided through a two-phase equity increase tied to professional and market milestones — will be used to expand RoyalPaté’s sales force and acquire new equipment to make production more efficient.

“Quality nutrition is the most important investment in the future,” – said Mónika Falucskai, Co-founder of RoyalPaté.

In line with this philosophy, the company’s future plans include strategic international market expansion, broadening domestic sales channels, and developing new products to expand its portfolio in response to market needs.
