Finance for brands that ship physical product
Inventory accounting, landed cost, trade spend, and channel-by-channel margin are the difference between a profitable brand and a busy one. We build the discipline to see all of it.
What we focus on for CPG
CPG brands often grow fast on the top line and then realize gross margin has been quietly eroding. We rebuild your cost accounting so unit economics are visible at every channel and SKU.
- Landed cost: freight, duty, broker fees, allocations
- Inventory accounting (FIFO, weighted average)
- Channel-level P&L: DTC, retail, Amazon, distributors
- Trade spend, slotting, and chargeback tracking
- Cycle counts and inventory reserves
Common CPG finance problems
"My gross margin doesn't tie out"
Landed cost is almost always the culprit. We rebuild your COGS to include freight, duty, and allocations - and keep it that way.
"I can't tell which channels actually make money"
We split your P&L by channel with chargebacks, slotting, and trade spend allocated where they belong.
"Inventory shows up wrong on my balance sheet"
Reconciled subledger, cycle counts, and aging-based reserves. Audit-ready, financing-ready.
