Listen "Transforming inventory management with automation | Arjun Aggarwal @ Mandrel"
Episode Synopsis
In This episode of Blue Ocean by StartOps
We sit down with Arjun Aggarwal, founder and CEO of Mandrel.
Arjun envisions a future where a small team can run a $100M consumer brand. In this future, “inventory management” isn’t a discrete problem for operations teams — it’s part of the larger challenge of automating the whole business.
The first step towards this future is to unshackle operators from the worst parts of their work: data entry and data organization.
Starting with their AI-driven “no-touch” data entry, Mandrel is redefining how brands approach supply chain operations and defining a new category of Inventory Automation systems as an accompaniment to — or replacement of — traditional ERPs.
We cover topics like:
How Arjun ended up running product for a publicly traded company in his 20s
The surprising thing SMB and enterprise supply chains have in common
How inventory management complexity kills product innovation, not just cash flow and margins
The journey to the 1-person, $100M brand
