The round is further supported by a broader group of operators and early-stage backers, with existing investors increasing their positions, reflecting continued confidence in Neutonic’s growth trajectory.
Neutonic was founded in 2023 by Chris Williamson, host of the globally ranked Modern Wisdom podcast and James Smith, one of the UK’s most recognised fitness entrepreneurs, alongside Luke Betts and Shan Hanif.
Since launch, the business has scaled rapidly, selling over 7.5 million cans to date.
It is on track to exceed $25m in revenue this year, having doubled revenue from 2024 to 2025 and forecasting a further 3x increase into 2026, supported by strong performance across both direct-to-consumer and retail channels.
The brand is now stocked in more than 10,000 retail doors globally, spanning grocery, specialist retail and fitness environments.
In the UK, Neutonic is rolling out into 500 Sainsbury’s stores this month as part of the retailer’s meal deal, marking a significant step into mainstream retail.
This builds on existing listings including Ocado, Morrisons Daily, Booths and more than 1,200 Motor Fuel Group forecourts, as well as gym chains including Fitness First and Everlast.
In the US, the brand is stocked in GNC, The Vitamin Shoppe and Central Market, with further national grocery expansion expected this summer.
An Australian launch is also planned as part of the company’s next phase of international growth.
James Smith, co-founder of Neutonic, said: “This raise gives us the firepower to keep building Neutonic across both the UK and US whilst also launching in Australia.
“We have seen strong momentum in retail and this next phase is about scaling distribution, strengthening the team and continuing to meet growing consumer demand.”
Chris Williamson, co-founder of Neutonic, added: “We have always felt there was space for a product that better reflects how people want to perform today.
“Retail appetite has been incredibly encouraging and this funding allows us to accelerate from a strong base.”
