The food and restaurant IPO boom continues with hot dogs, coconut water, and wine

October 14, 2021

In a record year for the IPO market, the consumer sector is set to post its busiest year in at least two decades, with restaurants and food and beverage companies taking center stage. The newest group to take advantage of the boom are bringing hot dogs, coconut water, and wine to the IPO market in the coming week.

Restaurant chain Portillo’s (PTLO), known for its Chicago-style hot dogs, has delivered solid growth and profitability so far in 2021. Coconut water brand Vita Coco (COCO) has also maintained profitable growth coming out of the pandemic, and winery Winc (WBEV) saw a jump in revenue in 2020, thanks to an increase in DTC demand.
