Sales and Growth Consulting
At Points North Certified, we help food companies expand their reach and increase sales while maintaining strict safety standards and operational integrity. Our approach is tailored to align your food safety and production capacity with your growth objectives. By thoroughly evaluating your current throughput, identifying bottlenecks, and understanding your facility’s safe scaling limits, we develop strategic, intentional growth plans.
No reckless expansion, only practical, sustainable strategies that reinforce safety, protect your team, and match your facility’s real-world capabilities. Whether launching new SKUs, entering new markets, or scaling production, we’ll build a solid growth foundation that supports long-term success.
Who We Work With
Our roots are in food manufacturing, and that’s where we thrive. We understand the unique challenges food companies face: strict regulatory demands, high SKU complexity, workforce turnover, production planning, and tight margins. We’ve built our consulting approach to solve these problems head-on with proven systems that align teams, clarify leadership, and create space for growth.
Great business fundamentals transcend sectors. We’ve seen firsthand that the same principles of organizational alignment, strategic planning, and process clarity can dramatically improve outcomes in any business.
That said, the principles we use, strategic alignment, organizational clarity, and daily improvement, apply to any industry. If you're ready to lead your business with less stress and more direction, we're here to help.
