Founded in 2021 by Aditya Mukherjee and Mansi Baranwal, the company plans to expand research and development, manufacturing capacity, and distribution across quick-commerce and offline channels.
Why now? The raise comes as India moves toward front-of-pack labelling, which would require packaged food makers to flag high levels of sugar, salt, or fat. "There is a growing segment that is very conscious about ingredients for whom front-pack-labels will really matter," co-founder Baranwal said. "We're seeing that in our growth numbers as well."
