The D2C firm received Rs 140 crore in debt across two tranches in May and August. Entrackr exclusively reported the development. It also scooped up $20 million in an equity round early this year. The debt funds will be used to support the companyโ€™s expansion, increase capacity, and drive brand marketing efforts, the company stated in a press release. โ€œAs we scale our operations and prepare for our IPO journey, it is important for us to use various capital sources to improve financial efficiency and also set us up for the next phase of growth,โ€ said Chakradhar Gade, co-founder and CEO of Country Delight. Launched by Gade and Nitin Kaushal, Country Delight provides a range of dairy products, bakery goods, poultry, and farm produce to its customers. The company sources its products directly from dairy farms and caters to 1.5 million customers in 15 cities including Delhi (NCR), Mumbai, Bengaluru, Jaipur, Chennai, and Pune.

In FY23, its revenue was estimated at around Rs 900 crore against Rs 542.6 crore in FY22. The firm has yet to report FY23 and FY24 numbers officially.
