The easy solution for complex DTC food and beverage operations

DTC brands that love Luminous

Made for the DTC food and beverage journey

Just about every DTC food and beverage brand experiences the same evolution: Experimental madness to operational scaling to market expansion. Yet, almost all the growing pains happen in the first stage, before $1MM in revenue. Watch our video below to see how this journey unfolds and how Luminous makes it easier to escape stage one.

The three stages of DTC food and beverage growth

  • Passion product business
  • First online sale
  • Peak complexity early on, before $1mm revenue
  • Regulatory compliance starts
  • Sources specialized packaging
  • Cold chain logistics complications begin
  • Adds subscription model, e.g. Shopify Recharge
  • Forecasting and inventory are difficult
  • Using multiple Google Sheets and ShipStation, but can’t handle complexity
  • Brain exploding
  • Past $1mm in revenue
  • Must perfect operations to get past the experimental madness stage
  • May use an overpriced ERP that costs multiple thousands a month
  • May use a cheap point solution that doesn’t solve their needs
  • May use Luminous, the only option that handles all this complexity at an affordable price
  • Owns a large chunk of the market
  • Focuses on sales and marketing
  • Hires a full-time team
  • Has comfortably solved the complexity they faced early on

Become a well-oiled forecasting machine

Most DTC food and beverage brands sell with a subscription model. This can make forecasting and inventory management much more challenging. By integrating your logistics and inventory data across all platforms, Luminous puts forecasting and stock replenishment on auto-pilot.
