Certified Supply Chain Management helps growing food, agriculture, and consumer-products companies buy better, ship smarter, carry the right inventory, and get ready for California’s new packaging laws. You work directly with a CPSM-certified supply chain director who runs these operations every day.
No sales pitch. A practical conversation about your suppliers, freight, inventory, or packaging.
Most growing brands reach a point where supply chain decisions are too important to run on spreadsheets and spare time, but a full-time VP of Supply Chain isn’t in the budget yet. That’s the gap we fill.
Start with the one that matches your most pressing problem. Every engagement begins with a free 30-minute discovery call.
Start with a one-time assessment, then add a part-time senior leader (about 6–15 hours a week) who owns your suppliers, purchasing, planning, and logistics, builds the processes, and coaches your team.

California’s SB 54 makes brand owners, and in some cases importers and distributors, responsible for the packaging they put into the state: register, report packaging data, pay fees, and help hit plastic-reduction and recyclability targets. SB 343 restricts recyclability claims on labels. A Packaging Compliance Readiness engagement gives you a clean packaging inventory, a clear answer on what applies, and a practical plan to reduce cost and risk.
