Maverick Sales is a Canadian FMCG broker and sales agency specializing in national retail accounts including Loblaws, Walmart Canada, and Sobeys. We have a strong Quebec and West presence too.

How we work

Navigating CPG sales requires discipline, process, and data. It requires critical thinking, careful planning, and the experience to meet the needs of both retailers and shoppers. 

Here’s how Maverick Sales gets retailers on your team:


1

We build relationships

Your brand is our priority. Our brand to account manager ratio is extremely low. We believe dedicated time and attention is the best way to learn and grow your business.

2

We help retailers help you

Retailers are confident in our team: we invest in the right tactics, effectively communicate your brand’s contribution, and demonstrate the benefit when your product succeeds.

3

We keep you on shelves

We work with retailers to leverage their strengths, from basics like shelving and distribution, to complex tools like Retail Media. Our sales planning team makes sure your brand is always in stock. Whether shelf minimums need adjusting or we have to sell in displays, we prioritize visibility and availability no matter what.

How we help you grow

Account Management

Maverick's key account managers are elite. Our depth of experience comes from Tier 1 CPG and also from the retailers our KAMs negotiate with; including Loblaws, Walmart, Amazon, and wholesale. Our brand-to-KAM ratio is kept deliberately low so each brand gets genuine attention, not fire drills and copy- pasted plans. Not only are we hyper-focused on long term healthy growth, we execute the discipline of the best KAMs. We track weekly shipment sell-in and POS sell-out, run bottom-up annual planning, and report to you monthly with a Gross-to-Net view across every retailer. Our first pride is in distribution growth. Last year, we secured 13 new listings atour regional retail partners generating $600K in new growth for clients in our FMCG portfolio.
We set ambitious targets. Then we beat them.

Digital Commerce

CPG brands often manage Amazon in silos: account management, PPC, and content run by three separate parties who rarely talk. The result is wasted spend, lost sales, and no one owning the flywheel. Maverick integrates all three. We manage your Amazon.ca Vendor Central account, handle Seller Central, own Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, and manage DSP and display, A+ content and PDP quality. In a recent Prime Day campaign, we delivered 2X year-over-year growth through suppression resolution, inventory optimization, and premium deal pinning. We also manage your product pages on Walmart.ca, Loblaws.ca, and other retailer ecom stores because Amazon isn't the only digital shelf that matters.

Retail Media

Maverick treats retail media as a commercial instrument, not a media buy. We plan and execute it as part of the same strategy we use to manage pricing, promotions, and shelf.
To get an emerging hand and body lotion brand at Walmart from stagnant to growth, one of the actions we took was a targeted retail media campaign. Our goal: signal to the buyer that this brand deserved more shelf. The campaign delivered 412% ROAS and 85% new-to-brand buyers. More importantly, the brand went from 3 SKUs to 6 at the next planogram update.
The media and the buyer conversation were run by the same team. That's the difference.

Sales and Operations Planning

Maverick runs your business like its our business. We own monthly demand planning cycles with weekly shipment and POS reconciliation so stockouts don't become lost distribution. Our S&OP team tracks Gross-to-Net actuals against budget, manage chargeback disputes, and makes sure your invoices are being paid. We have saved a brand $3M in fines, recovered hundreds of thousands in delayed invoice payments, and significantly reduced supply chain constraints through our ownership of the process. We use technology including Krunchbox, Storesight, and Claude to ensure clarity and effective execution.

Customer Insights

We aggregate retailer POS data across Loblaws, Walmart, SDM, Sobeys, Amazon.ca, and regional accounts into a single monthly view. Our insights team identifies distribution gaps, tracks promotional ROI, and surfaces risks before they become problems. This intelligence feeds directly into our KAM's account plans and your S&OP cycle. This is not a standalone report no one reads.

"When looking for broker support, we were immediately drawn to Maverick’s eagerness to tailor their approach around our needs.  Their unique capabilities to view the business with a fresh perspective, their attention to detail and knowledge of the Canadian market, truly sets them apart from the rest."

Maverick Sales are great partners for our organization."

"It is evident that your firm is on top of its game – it is such a pleasure to work with an organization that is “awake” and thinking critically about the business. Well done!"

Brenda Embree
