Plant-based skin and wellness brand scaling direct-to-consumer and retail channels
Cliganic is a natural personal-care brand (founded 2015, 11–50 employees) selling USDA-organic, third-party-tested formulations across Shopify, Amazon, and retail media networks. The tech stack is lean and commerce-focused—NetSuite, Shopify, Google Analytics—with active hiring in marketing and product roles. Current project work centers on retail media scaling (Walmart Connect, Target Roundel, Macy's) and paid-media optimization, revealing a shift from pure e-commerce toward omnichannel retail placement.
Cliganic formulates and sells plant-based skin and wellness products positioned as synthetic-additive-free alternatives for daily use. The product line is EWG-verified, GOTS-certified, and Non-GMO Project Verified, targeting customers across ages, skin types, and genders. Operations span direct-to-consumer channels (Shopify storefront, Google and Microsoft paid search) and wholesale partnerships via Amazon Seller Central and emerging retail-media platforms. The company is headquartered in Covina, California and currently faces operational bottlenecks in procurement cost and lead-time reduction alongside channel-specific challenges in CAC efficiency and retail-media spend ROI.
Core platforms include Shopify (e-commerce), NetSuite (ERP), Google Analytics + Google Ads, Amazon Seller Central, and Microsoft Advertising. Productivity tools: Google Workspace and Microsoft Office.
