About us
At GO DESi, our purpose is to make DESi 'POP’ular. We want to make regional DESi products relevant and accessible to customers, while ensuring quality & authenticity. We want to reinvigorate the ‘desi foods’ category by overcoming the barriers faced by it, and widening its appeal and reach. In the process, we are also building a sustainable brand that becomes a beacon for non-zero-sum capitalism, where all stakeholders win. We work directly with farmers, SHGs and other rural businesses enabling them to scale and capture a large proportion of consumer value in rural India. GO DESi is backed by Rukam Capital, Roots Ventures and DSG consumer partners. It was also a part of the Upaya Agri cohort, Wadhwani Foundation's FMCG scale-up programme, and incubated at IIM Bangalore.

Making DESi POPular one POPz at a time ;)
Nostalgia hit him when Vinay Kothari, an FMCG professional, stumbled upon some jackfruit candies at a roadside stall on a trek to the Western Ghats in January 2018. The familiar taste flooded his mind with long-forgotten childhood memories, and he left the place with bags full of those savoury candies 👇 Upon his return, he booked a stall at a flea market and sold the entire stock in half a day. Overwhelmed by the response, he joined forces with his sister Raksha (an engineer by profession) to set up a new venture. The duo launched the direct-to-consumer (D2C) food brand GO DESi before the year was out. As its name suggests, the brand encourages consumers to embrace their desi roots and buy traditional candies in a variety of flavours, all made from fruit pulp and brimming with the natural goodness of jaggery used as a sweetener. GO DESi offers more than 40 SKUs under four categories, including DESi PoPz, traditional sweets with a modern twist, snacks and mouth fresheners. The startup is reimagining traditional sweets like kaju katli, laddu and barfi with a ‘cool’ and contemporary twist. GO DESi secured one of its first institutional investments from Rukam Capital in 2018, and the VC firm has consistently supported the D2C player.
