Licious, a Bengaluru-based direct-to-consumer (D2C) meat and seafood delivery startup, is aiming for profitability ahead of a potential initial public offering (IPO) in 2026.
Sources indicate the company is targeting a valuation exceeding US$2 billion for the IPO.

Founded in 2015 by Vivek Gupta and Abhay Hanjura, the company operates a “farm-to-fork” model, overseeing its entire supply chain.
