Food-agri business startup Fresh From Farm has raised over 3.2 crore in seed led by Inflection Point Ventures.
The company plans to deploy the funds in team building, inventory management, capital expenditure, research & development and branding, Fresh From Farm said in a press release.
Founded by Rohit Nagdewani, Fresh From Farm sells fruit and vegetable products under the private label and aims to alter the dynamics of fruit and vegetable production through a targeted, data-driven predictive analysis.

It also claims to have access to more than 1,000 sales touchpoints for 30X growth in the next 12-15 months. It competes with Otipy, Bigbasket, and Blinkit. Fraazo, a fresh farm produce focused quick commerce startup is on the verge of complete shutdown. Entrackr exclusively reported about the development in August.
