PAX Partners with Headset Inc. to Provide Better Inventory Management

Headset, the leading provider of data and analytics to the cannabis industry, announced that it has entered into a partnership with PAX Labs, a leading consumer technology brand in the design and development of premium vaporizers. The relationship will provide real-time insights that enable PAX and its brand partners to better anticipate device and pod inventory needs within dispensaries and market intelligence to inform business decision making. PAX’s Era vaporizer was the single best-selling SKU across all product categories in CA, CO, OR and AZ in 2018.

Through Headset’s vendor-managed inventory (VMI) technology, PAX, their brand partners and retailers have a shared line of sight into product availability and sales velocity — critical insights for production and inventory management. If retailers under-stock, they risk unsatisfied customers waiting for orders to be filled. But too much inventory can tie up working capital or, even worse, lead to losses if it is difficult to move. With Headset, when PAX inventory is low, retailers can generate reorder reports suggesting “just right” reordering levels. PAX brand partners are then alerted to low inventory levels, so they can proactively drive conversations with retailers for the benefit of consumers.

“We’re excited that PAX chose Headset to help them and their brand partners integrate their inventory data in order to better serve retailers and ultimately customers,” said Cy Scott, CEO and Co-founder of Headset. “VMI technology is a powerful tool that enables better collaboration and trust between retailers and producers, availability of high-margin product and consumers that keep coming back.”

“We chose to integrate with Headset because they have one of the best VMI platforms in the market, with the most comprehensive data analytics and reporting dashboards,” said Kristen Winterbotham, Director, Commercial Enablement at PAX Labs. “We’re excited to be able to seamlessly provide our brand partners with the insights they need to grow their businesses while ensuring that our consumers have access to the products they know and love.”
