Veggie Cool offers a solution to help farmers in India who struggle with low wages, debt, and the need to sell all of their produce. The company plans to purchase produce directly from farmers, store and transport it using energy-efficient refrigerated trucks, and sell to retailers. This will provide economic relief for farmers while also offering value to retailers through a reliable supply of quality produce. Veggie Cool is seeking $4 million in investment to launch the business with trucks, employees, and operations across multiple states, targeting an initial market of $XY.Z billion that is projected to grow significantly. The founding team has experience in entrepreneurship, farming issues in India, finance, and business development.
