\u201cWe are looking to strengthen ourselves in Southeast Asia. We want to increase our presence in India, expanding our portfolio to around 35 locations in the next one and a half years,\u201d said founder and chief executive Anish Popli<\/a>.<\/p>\n

ProcMart expects its overseas business to contribute 20% of revenue in the next three years. The company currently has operations across 20 cities in India, and internationally in Malaysia and Indonesia.

Commenting on the investment, Prateek Jain, principal, Fundamentum said, \u201cAs a fund, we are typically attracted to B2B platforms that can enable large enterprises to outsource and digitise non-core yet critical functions of their businesses. ProcMart sits very well with this thesis of ours.\u201d\u201cProcMart is a high-growth profitable company that is expanding the maintenance, repair, and operation (MRO<\/a>) category in India. The company has demonstrated excellent service capability with a marquee set of customers. We are excited by the company\u2019s prospects in deepening existing categories, customers and geographies and further expansion across these vectors,\u201d said Ashish Agarwal, managing partner, Edelweiss Discovery Fund.<\/p>\n

In November 2022, ProcMart raised $10 million in a funding round<\/a> led by Sixth Sense Ventures<\/a>. It has raised $43 million in total.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
