Gymkhana Fine Foods has raised £6.3m in a series A raise to support its US launch.
Led by Cavu Consumer Partners, the raise builds on a partnership established in Gymkhana’s 2024 seed round.
Now, following the late 2025 opening of Gymkhana’s Las Vegas restaurant, the brand’s premium Indian jarred sauces arm has debuted exclusively in US Whole Foods Market stores and online.
“Gymkhana restaurant has proved that Indian cuisine belongs at the highest level of global dining,” said Gulrez Arora, CEO and co-founder of Gymkhana Fine Foods.
“Now we’re bringing that magic into every kitchen. This isn’t just a product launch, it’s the beginning of Indian food’s premium moment in America, and Whole Foods is exactly where that story should start.”
Cavu invests in startups that help build “a healthier world”, and has previously exited major names including Poppi and Beyond Meat.
The £6.3m raised by Gymkhana will help it find growth in a US retail landscape that has historically lacked a premium Indian offering, said Cavu managing partner Jared Jacobs.
“The best brands solve problems, and for too long, the at-home Indian category hasn’t reflected the depth and quality of the cuisine itself,” he said.
“Gymkhana changes that, bringing restaurant-calibre Indian flavour into the modern home. We’re thrilled to deepen our partnership and support their ambition to build an iconic global Indian food brand.”
