How Nutrition Warehouse grew from 3 to 90+ stores nationwide with Maropost

Since its founding in 2008, Nutrition Warehouse has grown from three humble stores into one of Australia’s largest and most trusted fitness nutrition retailers – with over 90+ stores nationwide and a passionate team of more than 390 employees.


But before its nationwide success, Nutrition Warehouse faced a familiar challenge: scaling fast-growing operations while maintaining efficiency, cash flow, and customer connection.

The challenge: uncontrolled growth without visibility

As Nutrition Warehouse expanded, so did its operational complexity. With multiple stores and thousands of SKUs, manual processes made it difficult to track performance and manage stock efficiently.

Before implementing Maropost’s platform, the company routinely carried between $10,000 and $20,000 in excess stock per store, locking up cash that could have been fueling growth.

“Multiply that now by all our stores and we’d have serious cashflow issues,”

explains Grant Mayo, Founder & CEO

Stock management was guesswork. Purchasing was time-consuming. And without a centralised view of inventory, every decision carried risk. The leadership team knew they needed more than a traditional POS system – they needed a platform built for growth.

Why Maropost

Maropost provided Nutrition Warehouse with a single source of truth for its operations –connecting sales, inventory, purchasing, and customer data across all locations in real time.

From the start, the impact was transformative. With live visibility into sales, stock levels, and gross profit across every store, Grant and his leadership team could finally manage performance proactively from anywhere in the world.

The results

Smarter inventory management:

Using Maropost’s inventory control algorithms, Nutrition Warehouse shifted from reactive ordering to predictive, data-driven purchasing. Instead of each store placing separate orders, a central purchasing manager can now leverage the company’s full buying power to place one consolidated, precisely informed order for all stores. This has saved hundreds of staff hours and eliminated waste – while keeping shelves stocked with the right products at the right time.

With Maropost, Nutrition Warehouse achieved:

  • Real-time visibility across 90+ stores, enabling data-led decision making.
  • Significant cashflow improvement by eliminating overstock.
  • Streamlined purchasing and distribution, saving time and reducing human error.

Detailed customer profiling:

Additionally, at the point of sale, Nutrition Warehouse captures rich customer data – from demographics like age and gender to detailed product preferences. This enables the team to segment their audience and deliver highly targeted marketing campaigns.
