Our focus has always been to bring forth high-quality nutrition to India, making sure that Indians get the best-in-class supplements to keep them active and feeling good. Indians are now more aware and actively searching for products that are genuine, high quality and align with the daily needs to be healthy, active and look good. We are building these brands at an international level even in several regulated markets as a first for Indian OTC brands. With our brands being available in multiple countries, we are excited about the story we are building and are grateful for the trust that MSPEA has put in us.”

This round of funding will support Fast&Up and Chicnutrix to expand their domestic presence, enhance manufacturing capabilities and accelerate momentum globally.
