Fresh From Farm (F3), a leading B2B2C platform revolutionizing fresh fruit sourcing and delivery, has successfully raised USD 2 million in a Pre-Series A funding round led by Inflection Point Ventures. This investment round also saw participation from Ashish Kacholia founder of Lucky Investments, a prominent investor in public markets.
Fresh From Farm has also provided a partial exit to early investors, offering more than 400% returns. Its early investor, IPV, led Rs 3 crore seed round in the company in November 2022.
Ashish Kacholia, Founder of Lucky Investments, praised F3’s mission, said, “The F3 team is solving a large problem for fresh fruits retailers by handling their sourcing logistics and helping improve their quality of life. Consolidation of demand in an otherwise fragmented and unorganized market is the key driver of the business. Rohit and his team’s deep expertise on the subject matter and their focus on unit economics allowed us to build conviction for the investment.”
