Solo de Croquetas is a Madrid-based gourmet croquette brand that sells only croquettes, through its own restaurants in Madrid, an e-commerce shop that delivers across Spain, catering and events, and wholesale to hospitality businesses and supermarkets. It offers more than 30 flavours, all gluten-free, with lactose-free and vegan options. Eduardo Gambero and Javier del Moral founded it in Madrid in 2019. The company sells about 7,000 croquettes a day, passed €1M in revenue in 2022 and reached nearly €2M in 2025. It went through the Lanzadera accelerator and raised a seed round in 2023 led by Fran Fragoso, former COO of Starbucks Spain and former CEO of Basic-Fit Spain, alongside an ENISA loan.
