Harva Raises $113 Million to Build AI-Powered Operating System for the Perishables Trade Industry
Harva, an AI-native enterprise resource planning and financing platform built for companies operating in the perishables trade industry, has raised $113 million in combined debt and equity financing to accelerate growth, expand its technology platform, and support its mission of modernizing one of the world’s largest and least digitized supply chains. The financing includes $3 million in equity investment from backers including Antler, Supply Change Capital, Ollin Ventures, Alamo Angels, Audaz Capital, and Liberty Ventures Network, along with a $110 million credit facility from Architect Capital.
Formerly known as Supply Pay, Harva is developing an AI-powered operating system designed specifically for businesses involved in international and domestic perishable goods trading. The company combines enterprise resource planning software, inventory management, artificial intelligence, and embedded working capital solutions into a single platform designed for distributors, importers, and other companies managing complex supply chains.
The newly secured capital will help Harva scale its software platform, expand its financing capabilities, grow its customer base, and continue building infrastructure for the perishables industry. The company said the funding will support its goal of replacing fragmented workflows based on spreadsheets, disconnected systems, and manual processes with an integrated digital platform.
Harva was founded to address challenges in the global perishables trade, a sector responsible for moving large volumes of fresh products across borders but often operating on outdated technology infrastructure. The company believes that businesses handling food and other temperature-sensitive goods require specialized tools that combine operational management, financial services, and real-time data insights.
The company’s platform provides businesses with AI-native ERP capabilities, inventory management tools, financing products, and data-driven workflows. By combining operational software with access to capital, Harva aims to help companies improve efficiency, reduce financial pressure caused by long cash conversion cycles, and make faster decisions.
Architect Capital provided the $110 million credit facility that forms the majority of Harva’s latest financing. The investment firm focuses on providing growth capital solutions to technology companies and supports businesses seeking flexible financing options as they scale.
Antler participated as an equity investor in the round. The global early-stage venture capital firm invests in technology startups across multiple industries and regions, supporting founders from the earliest stages of company development. Harva’s relationship with Antler reflects continued investor interest in software platforms addressing large but underserved markets.
Supply Change Capital also participated in the equity financing. The firm focuses on investing in companies working across food, agriculture, and supply chain innovation. Its investment aligns with Harva’s focus on improving infrastructure for the global food system and perishables trade.
Additional equity investors included Ollin Ventures, Alamo Angels, Audaz Capital, and Liberty Ventures Network. Their participation adds further backing as Harva expands its technology and financing platform for businesses operating across produce distribution and international trade networks.
Harva’s technology is designed around the belief that the perishables industry requires purpose-built software rather than generic enterprise tools. Companies in this sector face unique operational challenges, including inventory volatility, regulatory requirements, cross-border logistics, and unpredictable payment cycles. Harva aims to address these issues through a unified platform that connects operational data with financial solutions.
The company currently serves customers across regions including the Southern, Eastern, and Western United States, as well as Central and Northern Mexico. Harva’s customers include businesses involved in produce distribution and cross-border trading, where improved visibility and financial flexibility can have a significant impact on operations.
The funding comes as industries across agriculture and food distribution increasingly adopt technology solutions to improve efficiency and resilience. Supply chains have faced growing pressure from changing consumer demand, logistics challenges, and the need for better traceability. Companies like Harva are working to provide digital infrastructure that enables more transparent and efficient operations.
Harva’s approach combines software and financial services, allowing customers to manage business operations while accessing capital through the same platform. The company believes that connecting ERP systems with financing data can create better risk assessment, faster approvals, and improved growth opportunities for businesses.
With the $113 million financing secured, Harva plans to continue expanding its AI-powered ERP platform, scaling its embedded financing products, and building technology infrastructure for the global perishables market. The company’s long-term vision is to become the operating system that powers businesses responsible for moving fresh goods around the world.
