The round also included the participation of SP Ventures and Artesian.
ZoomAgri uses computer vision and artificial intelligence to develop quality and variety determination solutions for agri-food supply chains.
The company has developed a unique database with more than 250 million individual images that serve to feed its AI algorithms.

ZoomAgri has offices in Argentina, Brazil, Australia and Spain. The company has customers in more than 35 countries.
The capital will be used to boost its business in the countries where it already operates (Argentina, Spain, and Australia ), and to expand its operations to Canada and the United States in the coming months.
