Rabobank sponsored private equity (PE) fund has picked up stake in Olive Bar & Kitchen Private Limited for an undisclosed amount.

India Agri Business Fund II became a significant investor in Olive by buying stake from Aditya Birla Private Equity along with a few other selling shareholders.

The investment is entirely secondary as the Olive groups growth plans are funded by its strong accruals, the fund house said in a statement.

The deal offers an opportunity for Rabo Fund to acquire a stake in food services company Olive Bar & Kitchen Private Limited with 33 outlets and revenues around Rs 200 crore.

This happens to be the first investment in the food services sector by a Rabo Fund in 8 years.

Rabobank which operates on cooperative principles is based out of the Netherlands.
