Tony Horner, CEO and Founder of Fermented Felon, agonized over whether his retail partners had enough inventory of the fast-moving kombucha.

Hours and hours spent on the phones, miles and miles just to check.

Thanks to Retail Aware, Tony knows exactly how many cans of the gut guardian kombucha is on shelves at any given time.

The two Proven Ventures portfolio companies partnered up to streamline operations, specifically customer repeat buying for Fermented Felon. Meanwhile, Retail Aware is able to show off the smart sensor technology within new or hard-to-reach grocers and retailers.

A win-win that is proving profitable for both companies.
