Living Local raises $200,000 from Mexx clothing company

BENGALURU: Social discovery platform Living Local raised a seed round of $200,000 from Rattan Chadha, former CEO of Mexx clothing company.

The startup focuses on connecting people to restaurants, street food options, nightlife events and other neighbourhood activities.

Eventually, they aim to get SME’s on board who cater to such services.

“The proof of concept was figured out when we launched the hyper-local magazine Living Local, later we launched the web portal and saw 600 people within suburban Mumbai who were active on it, now we are focusing on designing and launching the app,” said Neeraj Vasudev, cofounder of Living Local. The startup is focusing on expanding its presence and designing and launching their app by the end of the month.
