The Opportunity
At Popsmith, Popcorn Isn't Just About Consumption - It's A Craft Experience
Dave and Tal, 23 year popcorn veterans, spent two years developing a patent pending stainless steel stovetop popper that's durable, easy to use, dishwasher-safe, and compatible with all stovetops, including induction. We source exceptional popcorn from small batch American family farms and create innovative consumables designed to elevate every popcorn night.
Patent pending hardware
Two years of engineering: stainless steel, dishwasher-safe, works on every stovetop including induction.
Small batch American farms
Exceptional heirloom kernels sourced from family farms, not commodity supply chains.
Consumables that repeat
Kernels, oils, salts and mixes turn a one-time popper sale into an ongoing ritual — and recurring revenue.
Our Traction
Popsmith Continues to Scale with More Popper Colors, More Sales
Since our last raise in early 2025, Popsmith has continued to deliver what we believe to be strong growth while laying the groundwork for long-term profitability.

The Raise
Why We're Raising Now
Popsmith is entering its next stage of growth. This raise is designed to provide the capital needed to expand distribution, keep pace with increasing demand and build new sources of recurring revenue.
The funds will support several key initiatives:
- Launching Popsmith in Williams Sonoma stores nationwide in Q4 2026
- Purchasing inventory to support continued growth and reduce product stockouts
- Scaling marketing programs that have already demonstrated customer demand
- Developing new products across both hardware and consumables
- Growing subscriptions and repeat consumables purchases
- Expanding our corporate gifting business following the success of a $243,000 Disney order

Meet the Team
Built by Popcorn Industry Veterans
Tal and Dave have spent more than 23 years in the popcorn industry. They started ePopcorn.com in 2003, selling popcorn products to families and businesses nationwide. Along the way, they saw an overlooked opportunity: while nearly every part of the kitchen had been reinvented, the at-home popcorn making experience had been left behind.
Combining decades of category knowledge with modern design and product innovation, Tal and Dave are building a brand designed to elevate how the next generation makes, shares and experiences popcorn.
