We help suppliers and retailers work better together
Today’s teams are stretched thin, and expectations haven’t slowed down. Our team is passionate about helping suppliers build stronger partnerships by using data and advisory services to define what great looks like to your retailers, where you stand, and how to close the gap. Success depends on aligned, capable partnerships—and the outcome is better coordination across teams, strategies, and stakeholders.

Our story
Over 30 years ago, in Toronto, Canada, founder Ron Pirie championed the belief that businesses work better together when they commit to actively listening and responding to each other’s feedback. Ron’s idea to have retailers rate and rank their suppliers was first conceptualized in 1988.
Not long after, fast-moving consumer goods suppliers and retailers throughout North America began recognizing that engaged and measurable relationships are foundational to business performance.
Core values
Our values aren’t just words—they shape who we hire, how we work, and how we collaborate with our clients. They drive our human-first culture and make us a great partner and a great place to work.
