More details are emerging about Skip Capital’s looming interest in burrito maker Zambrero, with the deal on track to be signed next week.

The raising’s expected to see Zambrero, which has never raised a dollar from external investments, pick up about $250 million in fresh capital at a valuation north of $700 million.Proceeds would be slated for growth, particularly offshore, and get the company closer to its goal of donating one billion meals via its Plate 4 Plate initiative.

Skip Capital, the family office of Atlassian co-founder Scott Farquhar and his asset manager wife Kim Jackson, is anchoring the fundraising, while the other major investor is pan-European private capital player Metric Capital Partners . Sources said there would be only two or three investors involved. Prince would retain a controlling stake.While valuation was one part of the discussion, Prince was also keen to secure a European-based investor , knowing it could be helpful for the group’s international expansion plans.

While Skip Capital’s emerged as one of Australia’s busier family offices in deals - not quite the Forrests’ Tattarang, but not unlike Mike Cannon-Brookes’ Grok Ventures - Metric Capital is a new name for Street Talk.Metric targets growth capital, minority buy-out financing and buyouts, to pan-European companies. Its food and beverage portfolio companies include London-based fine dining restaurant group Dream International and Spanish wine producer and marketer The Haciendas Company.
