Bonhomia was launched in 2014 by parent company, Indulge Beverages (co-founded by Kunal Bhagat and Tuhin Jain).

The capsules are also sold across cities through gourmet grocery stores such as Nature’s Basket and FoodHall as well as online through the brand’s own website and Snapdeal.

About The Funding

The $1 million funding round was led by Alok Rawat, the president of FGWilson, Neeta Mirchandani, of Kae Capital and Kanwaljit Singh, the founder of Fireside Ventures.

“We have sold over 1 lakh capsules in the last month, besides expansion the funds are going to be used to improve our back-end capabilities and develop our team,” said Bhagat to the Economic Times.
