Crofarm’s Otipy Raises $1M in Funding from Inflection Point Ventures

Portfolio Company, Crofarm, made a pivot to enter the B2B2C space with its social commerce platform Otipy earlier this year. This new approach to delivering fresh produce directly to the customers’ doorstep came at a perfect time when consumers in India were adapting to lockdown orders in response to the spread of COVID-19. To execute this new strategy Otipy has partnered with resellers across India such as SHEROES, a women-centric social networking app, to empower women and provide them with greater earning opportunities with their revenue-sharing model.

We’re excited about this company’s continued business and impact growth, especially during these uncertain times. Congrats Crofarm team on your continued success!
