Mable specializes in connecting emerging specialty food and beverage brands with distributors seeking innovative products.

The company operates a marketplace platform that facilitates interactions between these brands and distributor customers, allowing for streamlined procurement of unique food and beverage items. Mable's services cater to retailers and distributors by offering a diverse selection of products that address the growing consumer demand for specialty goods. The platform aims to simplify the wholesale process, enhancing the efficiency of inventory acquisition for retailers across various geographical markets, including North America and Europe.

Mable generates revenue through a business-to-business (B2B) model, primarily engaging with distributors and retailers rather than direct-to-consumer sales.

The company may employ a subscription model or charge fees associated with product listings, enabling retailers to browse and acquire specialized products efficiently. While specific pricing plans for subscriptions or product costs are not disclosed, Mable's operational framework is designed to facilitate seamless transactions between food and beverage brands and the distributors who serve them.

The company’s revenue structure leverages the burgeoning interest in specialty products, positioning it advantageously in the evolving wholesale landscape. Mable Wholesale, Inc. plans to utilize its recent Series A funding of USD 8. 5 mn to expand its platform capabilities and enhance user experience.

The company is actively exploring the introduction of new product categories aimed at meeting emerging consumer preferences, though specific launches have yet to be announced. Mable is also targeting expansion into additional markets within Europe and Asia by 2023, seeking to capitalize on growing demand for specialty food and beverage products. Recent funding will support these initiatives, including technology enhancements and market outreach efforts.
