Basic Information
Captain Fresh was founded in April 2019 by Utham Gowda. It leverages technology to deliver freshwater fish and seafood to retailers across all key formats. The company said it is building a trusted seafood supply chain by bringing in intelligence for superior demand-supply matching, enabling e-auctions for sourcing, standardising supplies, and maintaining digital traceability systems. Captain Fresh works with leading brands in the modern trade channel and the pioneers in the online meat and seafood space. The company received seed investments from Nekkanti Group and Sandhya Aqua, leading exporters of frozen shrimp, who saw potential in the domestic opportunity. It began operations in Bengaluru, and is currently serving more than 120 retail businesses across all formats. Since then, it has expanded its operations to other cities. In August 2020, the startup raised $2.3 million in a pre-Series A round of funding led by Ankur Capital with participation from Incubate Fund India and Silicon Valley-based angel investors.
