4amFresh Achieves Operational Profitability, Prepares for Seed Funding Round
4amFresh is a company in Bengaluru, India, that delivers very fresh groceries like bread, milk, flour, fruits and vegetables.
The company promises that its products are 'Made Today' and reach customers within 24 hours of being made.
It started in 2025 with a plan to sell only natural, preservative-free food in small batches.
A few months after it started, investors gave the company money to help it grow.
Now, only nine months later, the company is making more money than it spends, which is called operational profitability.
The company grew very fast, 50 times bigger in just six months.
It now delivers more than 1,100 orders every day and serves more than 30,000 families.
Most of its customers keep coming back to buy again.
Now the company wants to raise more money so it can grow even bigger and serve more cities across India.
4amFresh achieved operational profitability nine months after raising its INR 6 crore pre-seed round in November 2025.
The pre-seed round was led by OTP Ventures and Gemba Capital.
The company recorded 50x growth over the past six months and now processes more than 1,100 orders daily.
More than 75% of its revenue comes from repeat customers, and it serves over 30,000 households across 100+ residential communities in Bengaluru.
The company is preparing to raise a seed round and targets an ARR of INR 100 crore while expanding into key metropolitan markets.
