Choose the right perspective
Match the person's company type to your question, since a global beauty group, an indie brand scaling through retail and a contract manufacturer face different supply and launch pressures. Ask which parts of the operation they owned directly, such as planning, manufacturing, logistics or new product development, before relying on their view.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How do you plan inventory for a product launch when retail and direct-to-consumer demand are hard to forecast?
- 02What do you look for when choosing and managing contract manufacturers, fillers and 3PL partners for cosmetics?
- 03How do quality and regulatory requirements for cosmetics change the way you run production and distribution?
