Success story

Gainz & Airplanes

From bold concept to launch-ready supplement fulfillment.

Gainz & Airplanes set out to build a premium pre-workout for serious lifters — and needed infrastructure that matched the ambition of the brand.

Gainz & Airplanes

Before EPC

  • A premium pre-workout concept built around a bold brand philosophy — but no operational infrastructure to scale it.
  • Needed a partner that understood supplements, marketplace requirements, and fulfillment — not just a warehouse that ships finished inventory.

They didn't need a warehouse that ships boxes. They needed a supplement-ready partner that understood product execution and marketplace requirements.

What EPC did

01

Launch-ready product model

Helped translate the brand concept into a launch-ready pre-workout product and operating model.

02

Supplement fulfillment strategy

Supported a fulfillment strategy appropriate for a high-value supplement product.

03

Lot & expiration tracking

Established receiving, lot and expiration tracking, inventory management, storage, and order fulfillment.

04

DTC & marketplace prep

Prepared inventory for direct-to-consumer and marketplace distribution so founders could focus on growth.

05

Scalable launch backend

Provided infrastructure to launch without investing in warehouse, labor, systems, or fulfillment build-out.

The results

  • 1 Integrated partner
  • 24 HR Fulfillment capability
  • $10K+ Startup costs avoided vs. internal build
  • LAUNCH Ready U.S. infrastructure

Gainz & Airplanes launched with a scalable backend — without leasing space, hiring fulfillment staff, or building internal systems.

Supplement prep has zero room for labeling errors. EPC's inspection and FNSKU process keeps our Amazon account clean and in stock.
