GreenGrahi focuses on providing an alternative to traditional sources of nutrition through the production of superior-quality insect-based ingredients and supplements for shrimp, fish, poultry, pets, and plants. The startup is currently running pilots with leading animal and plant nutrition industries and has a production unit in Roorkee to run end-to-end field trials. Moreover, the founders have established a strong R&D network with leading biotech research labs in India, Israel, and Germany to bring innovation to the insect industry.

“This is where GreenGrahi has stepped up by tapping into the circular economy, delivering a product that aims to outperform traditional methods. By using proprietary bio-chemical processes, we upcycle different agricultural residues into nutrition rich insect ingredients using black soldier flies. With this fundraise we aim to conduct commercial pilots and develop capabilities required for scaling,” said Siddharth Sharma, Co-founder, GreenGrahi.

Darshan Doshi , Student Investment Partner at Campus Fund, and part of the GreenGrahi deal team highlighted, “What excites us most about the GreenGrahi team is the deep expertise and the vision they bring to the table, along with the large and growing demand for sustainable animal and plant nutrition solutions. Traditional methods of feed production are unsustainable and are prone to multiple externalities such as price shocks. In this backdrop, GreenGrahi’s novel insect ingredients that leverage agricultural residues are well positioned to create a long-lasting impact in the ecosystem.”
