Forward-deployed planning & supply chain

We build the source of truth in place.

Floridge is a forward-deployed supply-chain and planning practice. We don't hand over a spec and leave — we embed in your own systems, your Cin7, your data, your channels, and build the planning engine and single source of truth in place.

Built on a decade of planning, operations, market-entry and export work for FMCG brands across North America and Australia.

What we are

We build the source of truth in place

Most consultants hand over a deck and leave. We work inside your systems and your numbers until the system of record is real — then we plan on top of it.

Embedded, not advisory

We work in your ERP and your numbers, not in a slide deck.

Bounded, not open-ended

Every engagement is scoped to a fixed shape — no drift.

Source of truth first

Establish one system of record, then plan on top of it.

Track record

How we engage

One ladder — a low-risk entry that earns the bigger build

A low-risk diagnosis first. If the fit is right, it becomes the planning setup — and, when the brand is ready, the full embedded build.

i

Diagnostic

Low-cost paid entry

A bounded, roughly one-day inventory diagnosis with real takeaways you keep. Assumes a working IMS and good data. It qualifies the engagement and credits toward it if you proceed.

ii

Planning setup

The base engagement · 4 weeks

We build the planning model in Excel on top of your existing IMS and data — the maths and system setup that turn your numbers into a plan you can run each week.

iii

Full package

Planning + ERP + inventory dashboard

Planning setup plus an ERP reset and a live inventory dashboard. The embedded, source-of-truth build — our most defensible, hands-in work.

How we stay bounded

A fixed scope box — and two clean ways in

Every standard engagement is scoped to the same shape, so timelines and costs hold.

1 entity
Single legal entity per standard engagement
1–2 markets
A primary market plus one smaller second
2–3 channels
Across DTC and marketplace
< 10 SKUs
Per channel / market
Cin7 + Xero + Shopify / Amazon
Standard integration set (+ IMS if already in place)
A

You have a working system

We go straight to the reset and planning build.

B

No system yet

We set up the IMS first and work on planning and integration.

Establish the source of truth.
Then plan on top of it.

Start with a short, paid diagnostic — findings you keep whether or not we go further. If the fit is right, it becomes the build.

Start with a diagnostic

Tell us where your inventory and planning stand today, and we'll come back with whether a diagnostic is the right first step.

Floridge works with a small number of growing FMCG brands at a time. Most engagements start with a warm referral or a short diagnostic.
