Traditional FMCG stacks were built for a simpler world: one brand, one warehouse, one channel. Today you’re juggling niche brands, DTC and B2B, marketplaces, and a mix of in-house sites plus 3PL partners. Growth loves that complexity—most software doesn’t. EQUOS Business Suite was designed for this reality: one web app that cleanly separates multiple businesses and warehouses while keeping your operations lightning-fast and dead simple.

Built for high throughput—and for humans

Under the hood, EQUOS runs on technologies engineered for high throughput and real-time monitoring. In practice, that means you don’t babysit screens or mash F5. We use stream-driven interfaces (StreamBuilders) so the UI stays in sync with your operations automatically—no manual refresh, no spinning wheels. It isn’t just real-time; it feels real-time: stock counts, task statuses, pick progress, and order states mutate on screen as work happens.

Multi-business, multi-warehouse—without the mess

  • One app, many entities: Run multiple brands or legal businesses in clean, separated workspaces. Finance can see across; brand teams only see their own.
  • Warehouse-aware from day one: Add owned sites or 3PLs, set rules per location, and route orders by speed, cost, or inventory—down to zone/bin if you want it.
  • Channel-specific flows: Different confirmations, labels, and SLAs per channel without rebuilding five separate processes.
  • Role-based clarity: Warehouse teams see tasks; brand managers see brand performance; leadership gets cross-brand, cross-channel truth.

Small 3PL simplicity, big-brand outcomes

EQUOS was shaped around the day-to-day of a small 3PL—fast receiving, tidy storage, straightforward pick/pack, photo verification, and paper-light dispatch. That simplicity scales beautifully to broader FMCG use cases: pop-up brands, seasonal lines, marketplace mixes, and hybrid DC/3PL networks.

What “feels real-time” actually changes

  • Zero refresh fatigue: Orders confirm, allocate, and ship while your screen just…keeps up.
  • Cleaner handoffs: Pick tasks appear as waves are created; exceptions raise themselves.
  • Tighter SLAs: Alerts and dashboards surface drift before customers notice.
  • Better cash clarity: Per-brand and per-channel performance updates as transactions post.

A day with EQUOS

  1. Launch a new niche brand workspace before lunch; invite only the right users.
  2. Spin up a 3PL site with simple receiving and pick/pack flows—no replatform drama.
  3. Route marketplace orders to the 3PL for speed; hold DTC in your DC for margin.
  4. Watch live dashboards update as picks complete, labels print, and consignments manifest.
  5. Close the month with clean per-brand P&L—no spreadsheet archaeology.

Who benefits most

  • FMCG founders running multiple brands from a lean team
  • Ops leaders tired of reconciling siloed systems and stale screens
  • Small 3PLs wanting easy, reliable storage and fulfillment that scales with clients
  • Finance teams needing clean separation with instant roll-ups
