About Us
Why was Catalyst Commerce Created?
We’re a fractional B2B growth partner for founder-led D2C brands. Our job is to help ambitious, purpose-driven teams scale beyond D2C—unlocking wholesale, licensing and international routes to market with less risk and more clarity.
We’ve sat in the founder seat. That experience shapes how we work: practical, commercial and empathetic. Before anyone commits budget, we build the business case so you can see the numbers, risks and upside. When the decision is go, we plug in a fractional team—channel specialists, retail contacts and partners —to launch fast without adding permanent headcount.
