Apeel has raised $110 million dollars in financing to date.[9] References1. ^{{cite web |title=Apeel-coated produce is poised to take over grocery store shelves |url=https://www.fastcompany.com/90233226/apeel-coated-produce-is-poised-to-take-over-grocery-store-shelves |website=Fast Company |accessdate=26 January 2019}} 2. ^{{cite web |title=New Produce-Protective Coating Promises to Double Food’s Shelf Life |url=https://www.independent.com/news/2017/oct/17/apeels-produce-protection-released/ |website=Santa Barbara Independent |accessdate=15 October 2018}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web |title=Edible coating allows avocados to stay ripe for twice as long |url=https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2018/jun/19/edible-coating-allows-avocados-to-stay-ripe-for-twice-as-long |website=The Guardian |accessdate=15 October 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |title=Avocados could now last twice as long with new edible coating|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/food-and-drink/avocados-edible-coating-ripe-last-longer-bill-gates-apeel-scientists-a8407921.html |website=The Independent |accessdate=15 October 2018}} 5. ^{{cite web |title=UPDATED: Apeel offers longer shelf life for citrus |url=https://www.thepacker.com/article/updated-apeel-offers-longer-shelf-life-citrus |website=The Packer |accessdate=26 January 2019}} 6. ^{{cite web |title=Apeel Sciences is combating food waste with plant-derived second peels |url=https://techcrunch.com/2018/08/10/apeel-sciences-is-combating-food-waste-with-plant-derived-second-peels/ |website=TechCrunch |accessdate=15 October 2018}} 7. ^{{cite web |title=This start-up can make avocados last twice as long before going bad |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2018/06/19/this-start-up-can-make-avocados-last-twice-as-long-before-going-bad/?noredirect=on |website=The Washington Post |accessdate=15 October 2018}} 8. ^{{cite web |title=Apeel's Invisible Coating Could Be A Game-Changer |url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelpellmanrowland/2017/10/19/apeel-sustainable-fruit-veggies/#17c85b6932e6 |website=Forbes |accessdate=15 October 2018}} 9. ^{{cite web |title=This simple step can double the shelf life of fruits and vegetables |url=https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/23/tech/apeel/index.html |website=CNN |accessdate=6 November 2018}} External links
