Food and beverage runs on cash flow.

Octet helps food and beverage wholesalers, manufacturers and suppliers manage stock, fund growth and keep cash flow moving across short shelf-life cycles and long payment terms.

Common challenges in the food and beverage industry.

The Food & Beverage supply chain is high-pressure and fast-moving. When cash flow stalls, so does your ability to fulfil orders, meet demand, and stay competitive.

Upfront inventory and supplier costs

You pay for goods long before you sell them. And if you buy in bulk, the pressure on working capital grows quickly.
