Do you have inventory with long lead times? Want more clarity from your business forecasting? Hear what our Castaway Forecasting customer Anna Fisher said.

"Wine businesses have a long [ridiculous] inventory lead time. Castaway Forecasting lets us set up and isolate grapes, bulk wine, and then packaged goods across two-to-three-year periods. The agility to transfer inventory over a period of time and set up our forecasting rules lets me create business forecasting that works for us.

The 3-way forecasting works in ways that you just can't get in other platforms and our financial institutions are comfortable with the system/reports for cashflow projections."
