Our story

After spending many years leading operations teams, advising CEOs, and building operations tools at Deloitte and Goodfood, Maxime Lavoie realized many e-commerce businesses had the same urgent need. Those businesses do not proactively plan their operations, resulting in lost of sales and profitability.

Many e-commere businesses are losing sales because of inventory stockouts and their lack of operations planning. These businesses could lose up to 5% of their sales. Fortunately, better sales and operations planning allows these businesses to reduce their stockouts, and grow their sales.
