Congratulations go out to Foodzie.com for receiving $1M in seed financing to support the startup’s business in building an online marketplace for artisan food producers. This is very good news for the startup, particularly in this economy.

Back in April, I posted an entry about Foodzie before Rob and Emily (founders of Foodzie & friends of mine) headed off to Colorado to start the venture as part of the TechStars program.

Foodzie recently launched with 25 artisan producers and is offering 20% off all food products on orders placed by 12/31/2008. For the latest on Foodzie’s adventure, visit their blog at http://blog.foodzie.com.

    Thanks Eric for the nice post. We feel incredibly lucky to have raised the money during such economic times. Can you remember when you and Julie came over and Foodzie was merely just an idea we shared over dinner? :)
