When Caraway was ready to launch its first eco-friendly product line in the summer of 2019, the team needed a way to quickly and efficiently monitor their production and shipment of ordered goods. As a new brand, Caraway did not have a large operations team in place to oversee every production milestone with its suppliers. The business needed to operate with a small but highly productive team as it looked to simultaneously produce and expand its product offering with other home goods.

Founded in 2018 in New York City, Caraway makes quality cookware, without the harmful chemicals. Caraway is committed to producing eco-friendly products and needed a robust system to manage its supply chain operations efficiently. As a new brand, Caraway did not have a large operations team and required a solution that could help them manage production and shipment of goods effectively. The company aimed to operate with a small but highly productive team while expanding its product offerings.

Prior to placing its first purchase order as a company, Caraway adopted Anvyl as its supplier relationship management platform. Anvyl served as Caraway’s supplier directory, parts library, and source of truth for the ongoing communications between their team and their suppliers. Anvyl provided Caraway an organized paper trail that was accessible and referenceable for anything production-related, from price changes to artwork files, and everything in between. In an effort to keep supply chain material and information in a single source of truth, Caraway leveraged Anvyl’s Integration Hub. Through this, they were able to connect Anvyl to its billing system and freight forwarding vendor for cross-functional visibility. The flexible technology took only a few days to set up a complete source-to-pay workflow, with pre-built integrations for both QuickBooks and Flexport. With added visibility across the three systems, every team member at Caraway was empowered to execute day-to-day tasks with all of the information they needed. Anvyl’s cloud-based system meant anyone could access the same information and work from any location in any time zone, with the most up-to-date information.

Caraway benefited from operational efficiencies using Anvyl’s Production Hub, which provided top-down visibility into where orders were in the production lifecycle.
The ability to split orders into multiple shipments on Production Hub, track those shipments on Logistics Hub, and reference this information for accurate accounting on Payments Hub, gave Caraway confidence in its resilient supply chain.
Caraway’s team had a solid foundation and never had to manually send a one-off email, transfer new information to an outdated spreadsheet, or fact-check any discrepancies off the platform.
