Kolkata-based Amwoodo, an innovator in bamboo-first sustainable solutions, has raised $4 million in Pre-Series A funding from a consortium of leading investors. The round was led by Rainmatter, with participation from Adventz Group, Thinkuvate, and Caspian. This investment marks a major milestone in Amwoodo’s mission to accelerate eco-conscious living by creating world-class alternatives to harmful disposable products.

 

Founded in 2019, Amwoodo has been at the forefront of replacing single-use plastics with bamboo-based products that combine sustainability and everyday convenience. The company has built strong B2B partnerships with notable names such as Himalaya Wellness Company, Bombay Shaving Company, and ITC Hotels, while also expanding into the Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) market through its marketplace Ecoconsious.

 

With this new funding, Amwoodo plans to:

 

  • Scale production to meet growing domestic and global demand
  • Expand the D2C business through Ecoconsious and launch additional plastic-alternative brands under the House of Amwoodo
  • Strengthen community engagement and create livelihood opportunities in bamboo-growing regions

 

“It is a shared commitment to rewriting the story of sustainability—where innovation replaces waste, communities thrive, and every product leaves the planet better than we found it. With this support, we are not just scaling a business; we are fueling a movement to make eco-conscious living the norm, not the exception. We’re leading from the ground up—listening, learning, and building with the community. Because change starts where the roots are.”
— Mr. Agni Mitra, Founder & CEO, Amwoodo

 

“At Amwoodo, we have always believed that sustainability is not a trend—it’s a responsibility. This funding is a testament to the collective effort of our passionate team, the trust of our partners, and the unwavering support of our customers. Together, we are proving that businesses can drive both profit and purpose, and we are ready to take the next big leap toward making eco-conscious living the global standard.”
— Mr. Subhrakanti Das, Chief of Staff, Amwoodo

 

Amwoodo’s growth is further supported by recognition as a Great Place to Work® (India) and accolades from leading media houses, reinforcing its reputation as a pioneer in innovation and sustainability.
