Every story is a different operations problem we solved

Fragrance

Hazmat compliance

Perfumer Supply House

When a TikTok moment sent weekly orders from 2,400 to 19,000 (8×), their incumbent 3PL declined to scale a Hazmat fragrance line. We rebuilt fulfillment across the U.S., UK, EU, and AU in 14 days — UN1170-engineered packouts, OEM packaging from an equity-controlled hub, and dedicated DDP lanes for flammable liquids.

“We didn’t buy the lowest price — we bought predictability.”

Beauty subscription

Multi-SKU kitting

A U.S. beauty subscription brand

Every month, thousands of variable 6–12 SKU discovery boxes (from 25+ indie brand partners) must land on the same Tuesday or churn spikes. We rebuilt the monthly build on a dedicated kitting cell with vision-system QC, a multi-brand inventory ledger with predictive reorder triggers, and synchronized day-22 dispatch — so the unboxing moment becomes a brand asset, not a logistics gamble.

Crowdfunding fulfillment

A European crowdfunded hardware brand

18,000 Kickstarter backers across 47 countries from a $4.2M raise — and a five-forwarder patchwork melting down in week six. We moved fulfillment onto one integrated system: origin-side destination-market certification, 100+ routes with diverse customs clearance, and per-pledge tracking with a dedicated account manager.

Outdoor

Factory + lead-time reset

An Australian outdoor equipment brand

Their Aug–Dec summer-prep window runs 8× off-season volume; the previous 3PL broke at 4×, while a 35-day sea cycle and 6% damage on bulky gear turned every November into a reputation crisis. We rebuilt on an equity-controlled factory, peak-ready warehousing, and air/sea multimodal — peak now runs at the winter standard.

Apparel

DDP customs cleared

A Brazilian cross-border apparel brand

A São Paulo DTC brand at R$32M GMV with 1,200 SKUs (Shopify, Mercado Livre, Amazon, Shopee) was breaking on operations — an 18% peak customs hold rate, a 45-day catalog cycle, and 14-hour Portuguese SAC. We moved them onto DDP cleared lanes, low-MOQ OEM/ODM/POD, and native Portuguese SAC: customs holds fell under 2%, the catalog cycle to 21 days, repeat orders up 47% on flat ad spend.

Multi-market EU rollout

High-end lighting brand

Own DTC, Bol.com, Amazon NL/DE, plus a hospitality and designer project channel — four sales surfaces on four SLAs, with glass and ceramic breakage running at 12% on the EU distribution leg. We applied factory-end anti-shock packaging on insured fragile lanes, unified sea via Rotterdam and air via Schiphol on one routing layer, cleared CE, ENEC, WEEE, and UKCA before dispatch, and dispatched project samples same-day from the Eindhoven hub to Milan, Berlin, Paris, and London inside 5 days.

Supplements

Compliance + China sourcing

A U.S. DTC supplement brand

A $28M Denver subscription-first supplements brand where 4 anchor Subscribe & Save SKUs drive 71% of revenue — so any suppressed listing, short-dated FBA lot, or potency drift cancels subscriptions. We rebuilt the supply layer as four programs: a vetted 4-CMO cGMP portfolio with a unified COA + 48-hour Brand Registry auto-upload, a 180-day FBA shelf-life floor, per-batch NSF/Eurofins ±5% potency assays, and a cohort-indexed 12-week production commit.

DTC + Wholesale

A U.S. premium pet brand

A $22M Austin pet brand with 320 SKUs was capped by 22% on-arrival breakage on bulky beds and crates, a 45-day sea-only cycle, and 21-day buyer-sample lag closing every Chewy and Petco window. We rebuilt the lane on reinforced bulky-item packaging, in-line factory QC with timestamped photo evidence, and a sea-air multimodal top-50 SKU channel.
