Bollywood star and entrepreneur Ranbir Kapoor has made a new bet on India’s booming logistics and tech-driven infrastructure sector. Kapoor has invested an undisclosed amount in Prozo, a Gurugram-based, full-stack supply chain startup. The company helps Indian brands scale their businesses with smart warehousing, freight, and fulfillment services.
Founded in 2016 by Dr. Ashvini Jakhar, a former naval doctor and McKinsey consultant, Prozo currently operates 42 tech-enabled warehouses spanning 2.2 million sq. ft. It delivers to over 24,000 pin codes across India. With a revenue run-rate of ₹250 crore, the company has already partnered with over 150 brands, including Beardo, PhonePe, Neemans, Snitch, and The Minimalist.
Kapoor’s investment follows his entrepreneurial moves earlier this year, such as the launch of his own fashion label, ARKS. Speaking about his decision, Kapoor stated, “Every brand today needs speed, consistency and adaptability…Prozo’s systems give brands that edge. I’ve seen how great execution builds trust—and Prozo is enabling that behind the scenes.”
CEO Jakhar added, “Ranbir brings creative depth and strategic thinking. His belief in reliable operations mirrors our ethos.”
This investment comes just two months after cricketer Rohit Sharma also backed Prozo. The company has previously raised $20 million from investors like Sixth Sense Ventures and JAFCO Asia.
Prozo’s Future Plans:
- Expand to new cities
- Enhance offerings for quick commerce and MSMEs
- Boost automation and predictive analytics
- Build stronger same-day/next-day delivery systems
With other celebrities like Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra also investing in tech ventures, Kapoor’s move reflects a growing trend of public figures backing scalable, asset-heavy ventures that power the new India from the back-end.
