About Visualfabriq

We are a company on a mission to revolutionise revenue forecasting and optimisation. We enable the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry to work with insight, using a single platform that delivers one version of the truth. Removing non-value added tasks, our platform covers three main pillars of revenue growth management (RGM): pricing, promotions and trade investments, and commercial planning. We empower CPG’s to move away from spreadsheets. We enable advanced automation and drive the transition to embedded artificial intelligence (AI) for revenue forecasting and optimization.

We are 100%  SaaS. Even our oldest clients are on the latest and greatest version of our codebase – without ever having to update. Our ultimate scaling capability allows organizations to use all data available on our platform. Unlimited.

Our story

How we started

After years in the CPG industry, it was the founders’ experience that optimal strategic decision making depends on the quality of the insights available.
At the time, the solutions available on the market were inert, inflexible, and extremely expensive. The reports were often static and always outdated. The industry needed a tool to unlock all necessary data, easily and instantly. A solution that could integrate Big-data and turn it into perfectly actionable insights.

This is why they founded Visualfabriq in 2013. Driven by the vision to radically improve revenue management for CPG companies, the platform drives profitable growth for CPG’s while empowering all teams.
