San Carlos-based healthy snack startup NatureBox has raised $18 million in a Series B funding led by Canaan Partners with participation from General Catalyst and Softbank Capital.

Founded in 2012, NatureBox will use the new funds to build its consumer brand, increase its product offerings, and grow its customer base.

San Francisco-based physical retail startup Storefront has raised $7.3 million in a new funding led by Spark Capital.
