Best Food and Agriculture Tech Companies in Spain

The 563 best Food and Agriculture Tech companies in Spain in 2026, ranked by funding and momentum. Funding, investors, founders, valuation, tech stack and live signals. Top: Glovo.

563companies tracked
$1.5Bdisclosed funding
1unicorns
171have raised

Spain's Food and Agriculture Tech scene is one of the more quietly serious bets in European agrifood right now, and this page ranks the best companies operating in it by disclosed equity funding and recent funding momentum across 563 tracked firms. Total disclosed capital sits at $1.5B, which tells you the sector has real weight, not just promise.

Tebrio leads the funding pack at $32M, with Novameat close behind at $25M and Voltrac at $10M. Those three alone account for a disproportionate share of the capital pool. And honestly, the spread matters: 563 companies, one unicorn, and a funding base concentrated in a handful of bets is a classic early-consolidation pattern. The global Food and Agriculture Tech market was valued at roughly $4,200B in 2023 with a 4.7% CAGR projected forward, so the addressable runway is enormous even if Spain's slice is still forming. Demand drivers like water conservation and plant-based reformulation are pushing operators toward the exact segments where Spanish founders are most active. If you're mapping capital allocation in this space, the investor roster, Europa, Lanzadera, EIC Fund, Ship2B, and Eatable Adventures, tells you which institutions are consistently writing the first checks.
