About
Growing a CPG brand isn’t just about selling more product.
It’s about building the financial infrastructure required to support that growth.
Many founder-led brands expand distribution, increase production, and raise capital before they have the systems needed to understand their real profitability, working capital needs, and contribution margins.
The result? Brands that appear to be growing but are quietly losing money.
In this masterclass, we’ll walk through the financial systems and metrics scalable brands use to maintain visibility and control as they expand.
We’ll cover how to build financial infrastructure that supports retail growth, how to evaluate contribution margins across channels, and how investors and distributors assess financial strength when deciding which brands to support.
