For food & beverage, supplement and beauty brands · $300K–$5M

Your product is ready to scale. Your ops aren't.

Custom operational software for CPG brands outgrowing spreadsheets. We build the connective layer your tools were missing — so your inventory, suppliers, compliance and wholesale operations finally work together.

An ERP is overkill. A spreadsheet isn't enough. We built the thing in between.

Why We Built This

The Problem · You're probably here because

Something stopped working. Probably a while ago.

It might be one of these:

A supplier changed and you're not sure what documents are out of date
You manage 30 wholesale accounts from memory and a spreadsheet that's always slightly wrong
"Is this batch safe to ship?" takes an hour to answer
Every new SKU creates more manual work, not less
Your team spends more time updating data than making decisions
The operation runs through you because there's nowhere else for it to go
That's exactly where we come in.
How It Works · You don't have to figure this out alone

You don't need to know what to build. You just need to know what's breaking.

Most founders who work with us don't come in with a software brief. They come in knowing something costs them time every single week — and not knowing how to fix it. That's fine. The first step is just a conversation.

01

Discovery call

Free, thirty minutes. You tell us what's breaking; we tell you honestly whether custom software makes sense — and if it doesn't, we say so.

02

FoundationSprint

Two weeks mapping how your operation actually runs. You get a blueprint of what to build first, with a fixed price — whether you build with us or not.

03

Build

Working software in four to six weeks. Regular check-ins, live demos, no six-month silence.

04

Stay

Monthly retainer. Same team. The software grows as your business does.

It all starts with a conversation — free, thirty minutes, no obligation. Bring the thing that's eating your week.

Why Custom Mango · You've probably tried one of these

An honest comparison.

We didn't write this to make ourselves look good. We wrote it because you've probably already been burned by at least one of the alternatives.

We're not for every brand. If you want a platform, buy one. If you want software shaped like your actual business — talk to us.

FAQ · The obvious questions

Answered plainly. No jargon.

Do I need to understand how software works?+

No. You understand your business. We understand the software. Our job is to translate between the two. Every conversation is in plain language.

Why not just buy another SaaS product?+

Because every CPG brand operates differently. Generic platforms solve generic problems. Custom software solves yours — built around how your business actually works, not how the platform expects you to work.

Can you work with the tools we already use?+

Yes. Shopify, QuickBooks, Google Workspace, Airtable — we build around what you already rely on, not instead of it.

Who owns the software?+

You do. Every line of code belongs to your business from day one. No licensing fees, no lock-in. If you ever stop working with us, you keep everything.

Do you only work with food, supplement and beauty brands?+

That's our focus — it's where we know the operational problems inside out. But if you're an adjacent physical-product brand with the same batch, wholesale or compliance headaches, we're happy to talk.

How do we start?+

Book a free discovery call. Thirty minutes, no obligation. If it's a fit, we kick off a FoundationSprint — two weeks to map your operation and tell you exactly what to build first.

Let's figure out what your business actually needs.

Maybe it's one workflow. Maybe it's an internal platform. Maybe it's something in between.
The first conversation isn't about selling software. It's about understanding your business.

If custom software makes sense, we'll tell you. If it doesn't, we'll tell you that too.
