The capital will be utilized to establish a state-of-the-art manufacturing and R&D facility, expand the team, and enhance brand-building efforts through digital marketing and industry collaborations.

With the new funding, Crèmeitalia aims to scale up its operations fivefold in the next 18–24 months, focusing on penetrating Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities through Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) channels and strengthening its B2B outreach.
