For beauty, FMCG, food & supplement brands doing $1M–$15M in revenue

Most founders who come to Luxphy aren't in crisis.

Revenue is holding. The ads are running. The team is executing.

But underneath the surface — in the supplier invoices nobody benchmarks, the freight lanes nobody renegotiates, the 3PL rate cards nobody challenges, the SKUs quietly tying up six figures in working capital — the business is bleeding.

Slowly. Invisibly. Consistently.

Here's what we see, repeatedly, inside $1M–$15M brands that look healthy on paper:

●   Suppliers charging 10–15% above what comparable factories actually quote — because nobody has ever gone back to the table.

●   Freight and 3PL invoices full of DIM weight surcharges, storage fees, and handling charges that were never in the original agreement.

●  Hero SKUs reordered on gut feeling and fear instead of a system — resulting in either dead stock eating your cash or stockouts destroying your retailer relationships.

●   Payment terms that haven't moved in years — while your competitors are operating on Net 60 and you're still on Net 30, strangling your working capital.

●   A single overseas supplier for your best-selling product — one tariff spike, one custom hold, one missed shipment away from a quarter that wipes out everything you built

This isn't your fault. Nobody teaches founders how to read a freight invoice. Nobody tells you that the trading company between you and your factory is adding a 12% markup to every order. Nobody flags that your 3PL has been billing you for storage space your products haven't occupied in three months.

The system is opaque by design. And in the current tariff environment — with duties on beauty and FMCG packaging components jumping from 10% to 25–30% overnight — opaque is expensive.

We've seen brands lose the equivalent of $60,000–$80,000 in a single quarter. Not because sales were bad. Because the supply chain was fragile, the costs were hidden, and nobody was watching.

That's exactly what Luxphy was built to fix.
