Supply Chain Advisory Group

What Supply Chain Advisory Group does

Supply Chain Advisory Group is a Coral Gables, Florida-based boutique consulting firm founded in 2016 that advises e-commerce, retail, consumer electronics, fashion CPG/FMCG, and technology companies on international supply chain operations. Its service portfolio spans international expansion, global freight, supply chain consulting, reverse logistics with FCC and EPA regulatory compliance, and supply chain turnaround engagements. The firm operates with 1–10 employees under a three-person leadership team (CEO, CTO, Operations Manager) and covers at least eight international markets, including the US, Canada, UK, Mexico, Japan, the EU, Australia, the UAE, and China, with a multilingual team supporting five languages and leadership experience spanning three continents.

The firm's delivery model relies on a curated partnership network that includes freight carriers, 3PL warehouses, tax and customs experts, and regulatory specialists, allowing it to offer end-to-end cross-border services without holding physical assets or large internal headcount. Beyond advisory work, the firm has built API integration capabilities connecting client payment gateways, 3PL providers, ERP, and CRM systems, which represents a modest move into technical implementation work. The business model is fee-for-service consulting, with engagement revenue generated from project-based advisory and integration mandates rather than software licensing, recurring SaaS, or transaction-based fees. No pricing model, contract structure, or revenue figures are disclosed in the available information, and the firm is privately held with no external funding disclosed.
