Description
Client Snapshot
A globally respected regenerative ingredient company supplying forest-based botanicals to some of the world’s most design-forward personal care brands.

The Invitation
Forested had strong founder vision and global traction—but needed a clear operational backbone to meet rising demand while staying true to its ecological values.
What We Did
We co-led early business development, built global sourcing partnerships across South Asia, South America, and East Africa, and created systems to hold the company’s growing complexity. That included standardizing procurement flows, streamlining client onboarding, and aligning export procedures with FDA and EU compliance. Internally, we designed rhythm documents, supplier dashboards, and financial workflows to support steady, mission-aligned growth.
The Shift
Forested went from ambitious pilot to trusted global supplier—serving indie and multinational beauty companies alike. With a stronger foundation, the brand could scale without compromising its ecological roots.
