Operational Excellence for Growing CPG Brands
We help food CPG founders build operations that scale without breaking the bank - or your sanity.
Here’s how we could work together:
Operations-Finance Audit
We’ll do a deep dive into your current ops and/or financials and and identify what’s working, and what can be improved. You’ll walk alway with a better understanding of your ops and a to-do list of ways you can improve.
Fractional COO
We’ll start by auditing your operations and financials (if needed) holistically and will do a deep dive into your supply chain, production, warehousing, transportation, inventory, and distribution. From there, We’ll work with you and your team to make improvements that will save you money. As we continue to work together, we’ll make sure the business continues to run efficiently - including accurate forecasting and cash flow management - and that you’re prepared for the growth coming down the pipeline.
Strategic & Go To Market Sprint
We’ve all been there. You’ve been working on a problem or a new product launch, and just aren’t getting where you need to be. We’ll work to gether closely over a 2-3 month period to complete an overhaul or create a full system set up so you’re back on track and can focus on growth.
Shutdown Ops-Finance Support
Shutting down your business is the hardest professional thing you may ever do. Not only are you dealing with feelings of shame and loss, but you’re probably also feeling some kind of financial stress. We’ll walk you through the shutdown process with compassion and will work with you to put together a concrete plan that will minimize your risk and help you move forward.
Let’s talk.

About
Tenacious Ops
When I launched my food CPG company in 2018, I’d already been working in food for years - As a Specialty Buyer for Whole Foods, as a researcher, and in recipe development and food media/ecomm. I thought I knew the food industry.
I’d really only scratched the surface.
Now, with almost 15 years of food experience, more than half of which has been focused on ops and finance in startups, I’ve developed a knack for creating and improving scrappy operations with a combination of acumen, a suite of tools I’ve developed, and a roster of outstanding industry folks in my corner.
With Tenacious Ops, I’m bringing those systems to clients every day. I can’t wait to help you.
