About FarMart -

FarMart is a modern food supply network connecting farming communities, food businesses, and consumers. We are seamlessly integrating food value chains. We source produce scalably via our first-mile platform, optimize processing through an asset-light model, and subsequently distribute finished food digitally. By consolidating complex supply and distribution channels on a single platform, we are changing the way food is bought and sold in India and the world. Our mission is to create more resilient, reliable, and rewarding food value chains for humanity. At FarMart, we're dedicated to building the good food economy.

We're proud to be backed by renowned venture capitalists, including General Catalyst, Matrix Partners, Omidyar Network, and Avaana Capital, who invest in sustainable and purpose-driven tech companies. Our trusted partners include industry leaders like ITC, Sugna, Adani, Olam, Britannia, Glencoe, and Coffeco, among many others.

Founded by childhood friends Alekh Sanghera and Mehtab Singh Hans in 2015, FarMart set out to create a scalable tech solution that would make farming a reputable, profitable, and preferred profession for the next generation. Since our launch in 2015, we've established partnerships with over 230,000 farm aggregators and have positively impacted the lives of 3.2 million farmers and more than 2,000 food businesses worldwide.
