Country Delight, a dairy and daily essentials brand, is raising $25 million in its Series E funding round from Temasek.
The deets: Country Delight is an Indian D2C brand that delivers fresh, natural dairy products and daily essentials directly to customers' doorsteps. Their offerings include milk, ghee, paneer, yogurt, bread, eggs, fruits, and vegetables.
Country Delight recently ventured into the quick commerce segment too, launching a pilot for 10-15 minute deliveries in Gurugram.
By the numbers, in FY24, the company reported a revenue of ₹1,380 crore, a 50% increase from ₹917 crore in FY23.
Bottomline: as disposable incomes rise and health-conscious urban consumers become pickier about what goes on their plate, there’s a clear shift toward premium, farm-fresh options.
And in a world of watered-down milk and mass-market eggs, there is plenty of room for a trustworthy disruptor to thrive.
