Seafood startup Captain Fresh gets Series A funding led by Accel
Captain Fresh, a B2B startup has raised $12 million in its Series A funding. The funding was led by venture capital Accel.
The startup was founded in April 2019. It uses technology to supply and deliver freshwater fish and seafood to retailers across all formats, says Caption Fresh.
The startup is said to deliver over 20,000 Kg fresh supplies sourced from over 30 different coasts everyday. The fresh supplies are said to be over 50 species.
The company also claims to be working with over 600 businesses across over 10 Indian cities.
An early-stage investor Ankur capital also led the startup to raise $2.3 million last year.
“Over the last 24 odd months, we have iterated and fine-tuned the playbook for efficiently aggregating demand and supply, validated by a 10x growth spurt through the pandemic,” said Utham Gowda, CEO, and founder of the startup.
