# 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

### Step 01

#### Choose a track

Each lab is built around one operational area. Pick the one where you're losing the most time.

### Step 02

#### Build with our team

We meet regularly, get into your actual tools and data, and build alongside you. No slides, no homework.

### Step 03

#### 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.

## Apply to CPG Labs

Spots per lab are limited. We review applications on a rolling basis.
