Captain Fresh nets $40 mn from Tiger Global, Prosus Ventures at $200 mn valuation

Captain Fresh, a B2B seafood marketplace owned and run by Infifresh Foods Pvt Ltd, has raised $40 million (about Rs 300 crore) in a Series B fundraising round headed by Tiger Global Management and Prosus Ventures (formerly known as Naseprs Ventures). Utham Gowda, Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Captain Fresh, told VCCircle on Tuesday that the fundraise valued the company at $200 million.

The funds will be used to develop technological (tech) interventions and tech integrations across the supply-and-demand-side network, including a real-time trading marketplace, AI-powered pricing and quality standardisation, and the use of robotic automation to move volumes, according to the company. The cash will also be used to hire and expand Captain Fresh’s workforce, according to the company. Captain Fresh’s transaction was handled by Elluminate Capital, which served as the transaction’s exclusive financial advisor.

Existing investors Accel India, Matrix Partners India, Ankur Capital, and Incubate Fund also participated in the funding round. 

“We hope to expand to the US, to Europe, where we believe, if we can create a story of Indian fish going to the shores and being able to market it simply because it is riding on a very high-quality technology stack as we are providing traceability and all, which means that a US customer is valuing something that is coming out of India, that would be a dream, that would be an aspirational that we would want to create at Captain Fresh,” stated Gowda.
