In a major boost to India’s plant-based nutrition ecosystem, Earthful has raised INR 26 crore in its Pre-Series A funding round led by Fireside Ventures and V3 Ventures, with additional participation from Atrium Angels. The investment underlines growing investor confidence in the brand’s mission, its strong consumer traction, and the rapidly expanding market for clean-label nutritional solutions in India.
Founded by IIT alumni and sisters Veda and Sudha Gogineni, Earthful has quickly emerged as a consumer-loved brand known for its transparent formulations, simple ingredient philosophy, and sharp focus on women’s wellness—especially menopausal health, a segment long underserved in India.

Building India’s First Clean-Label Menopause-Focused Multivitamin
One of Earthful’s standout achievements is becoming the first Indian nutrition brand to create multivitamins tailored specifically for menopausal women, combining a thoughtful blend of vitamins, minerals, and natural herbs. This marks a significant step in mainstreaming conversations around menopause—an area often overlooked in both healthcare and consumer products.
Alongside this, Earthful has also been disrupting the fast-growing protein market with its 6–7 ingredient plant protein, staying true to its core philosophy of “Nothing but Nature.” At a time when consumers increasingly scrutinize long labels and chemical-loaded formulas, Earthful’s simplicity is not just refreshing—it’s revolutionary.
The Rise of a Community Built on Trust
In just two years, Earthful has grown to serve over 2 lakh customers, riding on strong repeat purchases and a brand philosophy that resonates deeply with modern Indian consumers. Its product range has expanded thoughtfully to include:
-
Daily multivitamins across age groups
-
Multi-flavoured plant protein
-
Targeted nutrition for Skin, Hair, and Sleep
This wide portfolio reflects the founders’ mission of making nutrition less intimidating and more natural, while filling critical gaps in India’s wellness landscape.
Fueling the Next Phase of Growth
The newly raised funds will be channelled toward strengthening Earthful’s women’s health portfolio, expanding its product pipeline, and growing its teams in Hyderabad and Mumbai. The brand aims to deepen its reach across India—particularly in Bharat—where awareness around clean nutrition is rising but access remains limited.
Speaking about the fundraise, Veda Gogineni, Co-founder of Earthful, emphasized the importance of disrupting India’s “unclean” nutrition landscape:
“Sudha and I started Earthful to challenge the unclean nutrition industry which was harming consumers rather than doing good. With this investment, we want to expand our portfolio, grow deeper into Bharat and build a movement where people know that their nutrition shouldn’t be intimidating, and should have nothing, but nature in it!”
What Investors See: Honest Nutrition Meets Women’s Wellness
Earthful’s investor community is aligned by one belief: India is entering a transformative phase in preventive healthcare and clean nutrition.
Arjun Vaidya, Co-founder, V3 Ventures, shared why the brand stood out:
“India is going through an important moment in preventive supplements… what drew us to Earthful was their pursuit of honest nutrition—simple labels, transparent formulations, and a mission rooted in Nothing but Nature.”
He also highlighted the brand’s strong resonance with women, noting that his own mother has been a loyal user of Earthful’s plant protein.
Echoing this confidence, Ankur Khaitan, Principal at Fireside Ventures, pointed to the fast-emerging opportunity in menopause care:
“Menopause is one of the fastest-growing white spaces in women’s health. Earthful embodies this opportunity with Veda and Sudha’s deep consumer insight and authentic vision to redefine how women experience this journey.”

A Brand with Momentum—and a Mission
Earthful has been on a rapid upward trajectory since its appearance on Shark Tank, where it previously raised USD 1 million from marquee angels and family offices. The brand has grown 3X in the last financial year, driven largely by repeat customers and positive word of mouth—proof of both product quality and deep consumer need.
With fresh capital, a loyal community, and an unwavering focus on natural, transparent nutrition, Earthful is poised to redefine wellness for millions of Indian women. Its mission goes beyond supplements—it’s about reshaping how India thinks about preventive care, one clean ingredient at a time.
