Challenge	Mary’s Medicinals, a leading manufacturer and wholesaler of cannabis-based nutraceutical products, was facing challenges with their inventory management. They had to manually count inventory each week, which was causing problems when it came to accurately forecasting material and production needs. The company needed a tool that could automate this process and provide accurate forecasts. Additionally, they needed to track the potency of the cannabis oil they used in their products, not just its volume. Read More
About Customer	Mary’s Medicinals is a company that operates at the intersection of technology and horticulture. They are one of the leading manufacturers and wholesalers of cannabis-based nutraceutical products. With more than 80 employees, they manufacture and sell their products in 11 states where cannabis products are legal. Their product line includes topicals, pain relief gels and balms, transdermal patches, tinctures, oils, and vape cartridges. The company does not grow cannabis plants or extract from plants. Instead, they buy extracts from their partners and infuse their recipes to make the actual products sold through licensed cannabis retailers. Read More
Solution	Mary’s Medicinals started using Fishbowl Manufacturing to address their inventory management challenges. Initially, they had a hard time getting it to do what they really needed it to do. They worked with Fishbowl to develop a customized plugin that would accurately track their oil inventory based on active grams instead of just total mass. This was very important to them since they needed to track the potency of the oil that they were using. The plugin provided a button that allowed for the measurement of the potency of the oil, a key aspect of each of their products since they are determined by potency of oil used – not just volume of oil. Mary’s connected their Fishbowl data to their CRM to take orders. They also integrated it with their QuickBooks files and set it up on their hosted environment. Read More Log in to view content
