AI-native operations for FMCG and food manufacturers
Adaptiv AI helps FMCG and food manufacturers in Nigeria connect production, stock, orders, distribution and finance into one system. We start with the workflow that costs you most, such as WhatsApp orders, batch tracking or month-end reporting, build it on your own data, and add the next piece when you are ready.
What we hear from FMCG teams
Orders from supermarkets, distributors and reps arrive on WhatsApp and are retyped.
Production and stock figures are posted in groups and rebuilt in Excel for the monthly meeting.
Short shelf life makes stock rotation and batch tracing critical, but both are tracked on paper.
The owner cannot see sales, stock or debtors without calling someone.
What we hear from operators
“When there's an order a sales person forward[s] that particular message to that platform [our sales orders WhatsApp group]... Then that is when I... as the account person, will now print it out.”
“Whatever production they meet so they will send to the platform... she collected and put it in... form of Excel and display[ed] it on the PowerPoint during the... monthly performance.”
Quoted word for word from conversations with operators. Names and companies are withheld.

Questions
What people ask us
What size of business do you work with?
Operations-intensive businesses of roughly 10 to 200 staff, where orders, stock and deliveries are real but the systems have not kept up. Low digital maturity is not a problem; it is usually where the biggest gains are.
What does a first project look like?
One workflow, chosen on a free discovery call, scoped in writing after a free scoping session, and built in weeks on your own data. When it works, we add the next piece.
Who owns what you build?
You do. It runs on your own data, in accounts you control, with no per-user fees. Your team or a local developer can take it over later, and an optional monthly care plan covers support and changes as you grow.
Where are you based?
Lagos, Nigeria. We work with businesses across Nigeria.
