The financing backed expansion of a specialty-coffee and quick-service food brand across India.

Third Wave Coffee operated more than 100 cafes across India when it announced the financing in September 2023. Co-founder and then-CEO Sushant Goel said the business had grown fivefold over the preceding year as it expanded its national footprint.

Creaegis described its approach as digital-first, backing technology and product innovation alongside the physical cafe network. WestBridge Capital and Udaan co-founder Sujeet Kumar joined the round as returning investors.
