Bengaluru-based packaged food brand GoDesi has secured investment from ENRISSION INDIA CAPITAL as part of its USD 2.8 million Series B Extension Round, aimed at supporting the company's next phase of growth and expansion.

Existing investors DSG Consumer Partners and Aavishkaar Capital also participated, reinforcing confidence in GoDesi's approach to India's packaged traditional foods market.

Founded in 2018 by siblings Vinay and Raksha Kothari, GoDesi focuses on modernising traditional Indian sweets and snacks into convenient, hygienic formats for everyday consumption. The company's flagship product, DESi POPz, has reached over one crore consumers across India, demonstrating its appeal across age groups and geographies.

"Our goal has always been to bring traditional Indian tastes back into everyday snacking in a way that feels relevant, reliable, and accessible today," said Vinay Kothari, Co-founder of GoDesi. "With ENRISSION INDIA CAPITAL joining us alongside DSG Consumer Partners and Aavishkaar Capital, we're well positioned to strengthen our manufacturing, expand distribution, and introduce more DESi flavours to households across India."

According to the company, its products are manufactured in high-hygiene facilities using ingredients such as jaggery and real dry fruits, while avoiding artificial sweeteners and added colours. By reimagining familiar flavours like tamarind, mango, and amla in contemporary formats, the brand appeals to children while evoking nostalgia among adults.

Over the years, GoDesi has expanded its portfolio across sweets, treats, and snacks, supported by in-house manufacturing and a strong sourcing backbone. This integrated approach aims to deliver consistent quality and accessible traditional flavours to Middle India at scale, filling long-standing gaps in the largely unorganised packaged sweets market.
