Rawbare has secured funding from Teamology Softech and Media Services, marking a significant milestone in the Indian direct-to-consumer eyewear brand’s growth journey. The investment has positioned the company to strengthen its design-led product portfolio, expand its retail and experience footprint across India, and accelerate its planned entry into select international markets.
Founded in 2022, Rawbare has established itself as a design-first eyewear brand with a focus on quality craftsmanship and customer trust. Over the past few years, the company has built a loyal customer base while earning recognition through multiple industry awards. With Teamology joining as an investor, Rawbare has brought on board a strategic partner with expertise in communications, technology and brand growth to support its next phase of expansion.
The fresh capital has been earmarked to enhance Rawbare’s product and design capabilities, scale its retail presence, and build the foundation for a measured international expansion. The company has stated that it intends to enter select overseas markets while maintaining the design standards and customer-first approach that have defined the brand since its inception.
The funding has also reinforced Rawbare’s long-term growth strategy, enabling the brand to expand into new markets and channels while continuing to invest in innovation, customer experience and sustainable brand building.
“This round is about building Rawbare the right way. Teamology understands what we are trying to protect, a brand built on design, quality and the trust of the people who wear it. The capital matters, and so does the alignment. We are not in a hurry to be everywhere. We want to be the eyewear brand people choose on purpose.” — Affan Ahmad, Founder, Rawbare
“We built Rawbare in public, one customer and one conversation at a time. This round lets us take that same community and grow it well beyond where we started, into new cities and new markets, without losing what made people trust us in the first place.” – Ankit Mor, Co-Founder, Rawbare
“Bringing the right people around Rawbare has always mattered to me, from our first backers to this round. Teamology is the kind of partner that strengthens the foundation, not just the headline. That is what gives us the confidence to expand with discipline.” – Shahid Javed, Co-Founder, Rawbare
“We backed Rawbare because it is rare to find a brand this disciplined about design and this honest with its customers. Affan and his team have built something with real depth, not just reach. We are investing in that conviction, and in where it can go next.” – Gulrez Alam, Founder, Teamology
“Our job is to help Rawbare tell its story to the right people, at the right scale, as it moves into new markets. The brand has the product and the trust already. We are here to make sure more of the world sees it.” – Badshah Ansari, Co-Founder, Teamology
