The first ‘Buying Club’ for SMEs, Power2sSME, today announced that it has raised $6 million in Series B funding from their existing investors. The funding round was led by Accel Partners with participation from Kalaari Capital and Inventus Capital.

 

The funding will help Power2SME to scale up their current business by extending its footprint to South India, increase their product portfolio, expand their sourcing channels to include direct imports for their SME customers and make additional investment in technology & marketing.

 

R. Narayan, Founder & CEO, Power2SME said, “Power2SME’s aim to help unlock the potential of SMEs, whose progress is so critical to the India growth story. With quarterly revenues run rate of more than $2 million and 13,000 registered SMEs users in less than 3 quarters of operations, Power2SME is well on its way to becoming a one stop destination for SMEs for all their business needs.”
