A Gurugram-based startup Akiva Superfoods which offers health and wellness food products has raised approximately $2 million.

The Series A funding was led by Alkemi Venture Partners, a New Delhi-based venture capital firm founded in 2016.

The company’s previous investors include Zomato Co-founder Pankaj Chaddah; MindTickle Co-founder Mohit Garg; Max Healthcare CEO Rajit Mehta; OYO New Real Estate CEO Rohit Kapoor; current and former Partners of McKinsey & Co; and prominent PE investors.

The funding would be utilised to expand the current portfolio.

“With robust direct-to-consumer, eCommerce and modern trade channels, Akiva Superfoods is data-rich, close to their customers and uses meaningful insights to develop products to scale. This is in-line with Alkemi’s mission of elevating the health and well-being of people around the world, and we are confident that this round of funding will propel the organisation to drive real value,” a spokesperson from Alkemi was quoted as saying by a daily.
