Many? Not compared to small wheel folders.
Bridgestone offers some in the Japanese home market. Then there's Changebike, Fubi, Koga, Montague.
There are demountable (take apart rather than folding) 700c wheel bikes. Ritchey, S&S.
Market survey? Design brief? Or have a particular use in mind?

I got the Change Bike 650B recently and here is a link to the running review.
https://www.bikeforums.net/folding-b...bike-650b.html
A larger wheeled bike will trade-off fold size and handling when folded since its bigger/heavier, no going around that.
Montague are the other brand making a range of 700c folding bikes.

i put 700 wheels on a 26" folding bike. i just happen to be in this section to look for the pic i posted of it. someone else posted one also. in the fuji/marlboro folding thread (but the pic i posted myself has 26x1 3/8" wheels/tires. i changed it later).
