“We are thrilled to have this immense support from Omnivore and Narotam Sekhsaria Family Office. Their belief in our vision and commitment to providing consumers with great quality adulterant-free milk and dairy products is a tremendous validation of our efforts. This investment will be instrumental in accelerating our growth trajectory and enabling us to provide fresh, healthy, and responsibly sourced food to a wider audience in Hyderabad and Bengaluru. We strongly believe that there is an opportunity to serve over 1,00,000 families every day in these two markets alone,” said Dr Kishore.
