The guilt-free indulgence café chain Yummy Bee has raised a total of Rs 18 crore (more than $2 million), with Rs 11 crore coming from its most recent funding round. Ajitha Challa, Praveen Jaipuriar, Mohan Krishna, and other investors participated in the funding round, which was led by Mile Deep Capital.
According to a press release from Yummy Bee, the new funding will be utilized to expand into Bengaluru and Mumbai and to build a foundation for Consumer Packed Goods (CPG) for the FMCG market.
Established by Sandeep Jangala in 2022, Yummy Bee has stores in Hyderabad and plans to add new items like millet puffs and almond rocks to its lineup of consumer-packaged goods (CPG) for the FMCG market. It intends to expand its channels into modern trade as well as fast commerce.
By March 2026, Yummy Bee hopes to reach an annualized recurring revenue of Rs 50 crore. By the end of the year, the company intends to open 20 locations throughout India. According to the brand, it has quickly become well-known for its menu items that are free of sugar, gluten, and preservatives. These include pastas, tacos, millet pizzas, and signature desserts like Chocolate Truffle Pastry, Double Chocolate Brownies, and Blueberry Cheesecake.
In order to make guilt-free indulgence available in every major city, Yummy Bee wants to reach more health-conscious people nationwide.
