Advisory for trade, wholesale & retail
A working-capital business — where inventory, credit and cash flow decide the year
Wholesale, distribution and retail businesses operate on thin margins, heavy inventory and shifting demand. We help trade businesses see real profitability by product and channel, finance and control inventory, and keep cash flow ahead of the cycle.
The trade sector runs on working capital.
Competition is intense, demand shifts, and margin is easily lost between purchasing, inventory and credit terms.
Most trade businesses struggle to see where they actually make money — by product, customer or channel — and to fund inventory without straining cash. Getting that visibility, and financing the cycle, is where the year is won or lost.
