Project Overview

Felix, a hair extension wholesaler in the U.S., faced mounting pressure due to quality inconsistencies, delayed shipments, and a lack of product variety from his former supplier. He wanted a new partner who could not only match existing SKUs but help build a new, higher-margin premium line while streamlining operations.

Challenges

  1. Unstable product quality and narrow catalog from former vendor.

  2. Need for high-speed, reliable delivery to reduce inventory holding cost.

  3. Sourcing challenges across both hair products and accessories.

Alpha’s Solutions

  • Product Strategy Consulting: Suggested top-selling SKUs for both value and premium lines; introduced cuticle intact double drawn hair with seamless Genius Weft technology.

  • Integrated QA System: Applied violent wash testing, color match assurance, and sample archiving for 6+ months, ensuring any complaint could be traced with physical evidence.

  • Speed Optimization: Provided semi-finished inventory planning using Alpha’s standard color ring system, cutting delivery times to 5–10 days post-order.

  • One-Stop Fulfillment: Enabled full accessory procurement (tapes, pliers, glue, hooks, packaging) through Alpha’s sourcing team, reducing Felix’s time managing external vendors.

Results

Felix successfully launched a dual-line product strategy—retaining cost-conscious customers while opening a new premium segment. Customer satisfaction improved, returns dropped, and operational efficiency increased.
