A 6-week hands-on program
A 6-week hands-on program
Has your CPG brand outgrown how you're running it?
Most CPG brands are still running critical operations on spreadsheets and email. CPG Labs is a hands-on program that helps you replace those with AI-powered systems — built into how your team already works, six weeks at a time.
How it works
Choose a track
Each lab is built around one operational area. Pick the one where you're losing the most time.
Build with our team
We meet regularly, get into your actual tools and data, and build alongside you. No slides, no homework.
Leave with something running
At the end of six weeks, you have an AI-powered system embedded in how your team actually operates.
Current tracks
Each lab focuses on one area. The specifics depend on your business — how you distribute, what channels you sell in, and where the friction lives.
Retailer Management
New item setup, category review deadlines, and promotional submissions — systematized so you're not starting from scratch every time.
New item form automation, category review tracking, promotional submission systems
Distributor & 3PL Coordination
Every retail authorization triggers a chain of distributor communications. This track builds the system that handles it.
Distributor activation, store-level mapping, purchase order processing
Inventory Management
Staying on top of what you have, where it is, and when to reorder — across multiple locations and channels.
Reorder alerts, out-of-stock visibility, safety stock tracking
Production Planning
Keeping co-packer relationships and production schedules from becoming a source of surprises as you scale.
Production run scheduling, co-packer communication tracking, lead time visibility

Who this is for
CPG Labs is for operators at growth-stage CPG brands. You should already be selling — through retail, wholesale, e-commerce, or some combination — and have a specific part of your operations that isn't keeping up with the rest of your business.
You don't need to be technical. You do need to know where the problem is.
