Case Study: Wabanaki Maple doubles sales without hiring with Katana

How Wabanaki Maple got out of a sticky situation — doubled sales without increasing costs

Wabanaki Maple, a barrel‑aged maple syrup producer based in New Brunswick, Canada, outgrew its Excel-based processes as it scaled into a larger facility and began selling in Canada and the U.S. To gain batch-tracking, multicurrency support and real‑time visibility into ingredient consumption, they implemented Katana’s cloud manufacturing and inventory software along with integrations to Shopify, QuickBooks Online and Prospect CRM.

Using Katana, Wabanaki Maple automated inventory, batch tracking and currency conversions, nailed down costs and margins, and tied ecommerce and accounting systems together—saving hours of manual data entry. The result: smoother fulfillment, easy product recalls and more than doubled sales volume without hiring additional staff, all managed through Katana as the central hub.
