We take full ownership of mission-critical functions - production, 3PL & co-man management, retail orders, demand planning, shipping & freight, and more - so brands avoid costly mistakes, free up bandwidth, and scale with confidence.
When operations break, margins struggle and growth becomes fragile.
As brands scale, operations and CPG supply chain management quietly become the biggest risks. Fire drills drain leadership bandwidth, small misses trigger stockouts and chargebacks, retail complexity grows fast, inventory mistakes trap cash, and margin leakage hides across procurement, packaging, freight, and fulfillment.
Operations shouldn’t be a constant source of anxiety or deterrent from growth. And with Bravo CPG, operations can be your competitive advantage.
What we can own for you
Bravo CPG is a one-stop fractional operations partner built around end-to-end CPG supply chain management. We combine hands-on ownership with senior-level guidance, helping brands improve margins, drive revenue, and build the foundation required to scale. We embed into your team like in-house staff, providing the right expertise, at the right cost, at the right time.
-
We manage & own retail orders from PO receipt to delivery confirmation and invoicing, so you drive OTIF, avoid chargebacks, and elevate your team so they can focus on strategy and growth. Get out of PO fire drill mode, and into growth mode.
-
We act as the operational “air traffic control” for production - owning co-man coordination & relationship, purchasing, QA, and run reconciliation - saving you time and money by avoiding missed runs, stockouts, and cash tied up in the wrong inventory.
-
We proactively manage your fulfillment partners, managing SLAs, inventory movements, fulfillment, and unblocking issues - so customers get what they expect, when they expect it, and you save money and headaches by hitting OTIF targets and eliminating chargebacks. Not happy with your 3PL? No problem. Our experts can help you source, analyze, choose and onboard a partner that is a great match for your brand.
-
Avoid the missteps others have already made. Bravo CPG gives you the ability to afford and plug in a seasoned COO who sets the operational roadmap, drives accountability, and mentors you and your team - so you scale faster with less risk, better margins, and stronger cash flow. You need more than a consultant. You need an embedded operations leader.
-
Gain the tightest 12-month forecast on inventory, production & producement that you’ve ever had. Let a highly-experienced Bravo CPG operations leader own your demand planning & supply planning, so you can produce confidently, reduce lost revenue due to stockouts/overstocks, and establish a cross-functional S&OP that drives material business growth.
-
Done-for-you inventory management so you always have an accurate view. Bravo CPG will own your inventory management - inventory placement, replenishment rules, accurate inventory counts by location, and month-end reconciliation - so you always have the right inventory in the right place at the right time, improving turns and protecting cash.
-
We own freight planning and execution - benchmarking carriers, coordinating domestic and international shipments, and tracking spend/performance - so you can prevent delays and stop margin leakage from avoidable freight costs and fire-drills.
-
System setups and integrations can be a time-suck, yet they are the bedrock of an operation. We help you select and implement the right ops tech tack (IMS/ERP/EDI) and lead the integration - so you get clean data, automated workflows, and real-time visibility into inventory, landed cost, and wholesale execution.

Food & Beverage
Food & beverage brands often underestimate how operationally complex scaling (especially retail scaling) really is. Missed delivery windows, poor demand planning, excess SKUs, and under-managed co-mans and 3PLs quickly turn into stock outs, chargebacks, and cash trapped in inventory. Fragmented data and unclear margins by channel make it hard to know if growth is actually profitable. Bravo CPG embeds as your fractional operations team, owning things like retail fulfilment, production planning, inventory, and fulfillment partners - so retail & product launches run smoothly, inventory is right-sized, margins are protected, and leadership can scale without constantly needing to jump into fire drills.
Wellness & Supplements
Wellness and supplement brands face high-risk decisions driven by long lead times, high MOQs, shelf-life constraints, and strict quality and compliance requirements. Production commitments are often made without reliable demand signals, while limited visibility into manufacturing, yields, and unit economics creates hidden cost and margin risk - especially as wellness brands expand into retail. Bravo CPG brings structure, senior ownership and CPG consulting across demand planning, production, inventory, and retail execution - reducing inventory risk, protecting cash flow, and giving brands the visibility needed to scale confidently and compliantly.
Beauty & Personal Care
Beauty & personal care brands struggle with high MOQs, rapid innovation cycles, and SKU proliferation before demand is proven. Things like color variants and weak lifecycle planning can quickly slow turns, create write-offs, and tie up cash - especially when inventory tracking and 3PL execution break down. Bravo CPG embeds directly in as your fractional operations team, owning demand planning, inventory controls, 3PL management, and production coordination - so launches are disciplined, inventory stays healthy, and growth is profitable, not chaotic.
Other CPG Brands
Although our focus is on the above categories, we've worked with brands across home goods, apparel, electronics, and more. Any CPG consultant need that touches operations, supply chain, or scaling - we've likely handled it.
