- ByStartupStory | August 10, 2022
Organic Kitchen, a company that offers 100% certified, authentic, and organic products directly sourced from the farms in a transparent and traceable way, has raised $1 million in seed funding from angel investors including Siddharth Chaudhary, Abhishek Dhaka and Nitin Sahjwani.
The corporation will build farmer clusters and drones to execute supply chain solutions for organic food goods in four agro-climatic regions—Solan (Himachal Pradesh), Nawalgarh (Rajasthan), Palla (Delhi), and Sundana
The funds would be utilised by Organic Kitchen to improve technology, create the consumer and farmer app, and increase its product line to include over 250 items that are 100% organically grown.
“We are excited to advance our plans to transform conventional kitchens into organic kitchens and promote the culture of consumption of organic food in Indian households with the support of our investors. Today, consumers have become more aware of what ends up on their plate and do not want to eat foods laced with harmful chemicals and pesticides that affect their health and immune system, said Krishnank Atrey, Executive Director & Co-founder of Organic Kitchen, while speaking about the seed funding.
He further added ,“Faced with increasing demand coupled with our latest cash flow, we intend to build a profitable supply chain and strengthen our sourcing and supply in PAN India, expand to 35 major Indian cities and expand our footprint to 15 agroclimatics, 150 dronas (agricultural hubs). Our team is also working hard to onboard over 12,000 farmers and attract 1 crore customers that align with our long-term plans,”
To deal with the development of funds, Angel Investor of Organic Kitchen, Sidharth Chaudhary, said “The demand for organic products is huge these days and Organic Kitchen is on track to deliver authentic organic produce straight from the farm to customers’ doorsteps. I am struck by the team’s noble concept of implementing organic farming methods and their initiatives to adequately complement farmers’ efforts and overall well-being. I look forward to investing in Organic Kitchen throughout their future journey and financially supporting them as they embark on this remarkable, impact-driven journey.
