Overview
When Smithers-Oasis acquired Design Master in 2021, Design Master had a significant amount of inventory that came with the acquisition but was not directly tied to demand. They needed to organize it and distribute it to customers. Reviving their broken supply chain fast was the key to the survival of this specialty paint brand
beloved by florists. Recognizing this, Larry White, the VP of Corporate Technology at Smithers-Oasis, reached out to Mike Jarrett, President & CEO of Jarrett, who Larry had worked with almost two decades before.
What began as a friendly reunion between friends led White to realize that what Design Master needed, was exactly what Jarrett did. An agreement was reached
and operations started six weeks later.
