About Whizzo

Whizzo is a materials science-based manufacturing company specializing in engineered and technical textiles for a wide range of industries. Founded in 2024 by Shrestha Kukreja, a former Zetwerk executive, the Bengaluru-based startup aims to bridge the gap between scientific innovation and manufacturing execution in the textile sector. The company has secured significant funding, including a $4.2 million seed round in January 2025, followed by a $15 million Series A round in January 2026, from investors such as Lightspeed, BEENEXT, Fundamentum, and LB Investment.

Read full description

Whizzo operates on a business-to-business (B2B) model, similar to a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) in the pharmaceutical industry. It generates revenue through orders from institutional clients, collaborating closely with them from product conception and design to large-scale manufacturing. This co-creation model involves leveraging its design lab, formulation expertise, and a digital repository of textile blends to develop proprietary solutions tailored to customer needs. By managing the entire process, from research and development to commercial-scale production, the company significantly reduces the time-to-market for new products.

The company's core focus is on creating advanced textile blends with versatile applications in sectors such as automotive, agriculture, medical, packaging, protective wear, and engineered fashion. Its product verticals include Agrotech, Buildtech, Clothtech, Geotech, Hometech, Indutech, and Medtech. Whizzo's research and development efforts are central to its operations, transforming polymers, fibers, and fabrics into mission-critical textile systems. A key area of its innovation is sustainability, with projects like low-water denim that reduces water consumption by 95% through advanced laser treatments. The company has a robust supply chain with capabilities in India, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Bangladesh, and serves clients globally, with exports accounting for about 40% of its revenue.
