Ollie: Harnessing the power of plants for ethical and sustainable wellness

Ollie is a Singapore-based home and personal care brand harnessing essential oil blends in products ranging from cleaning supplies to body washes. Prioritising traceability and ethical sourcing, Ollie’s 100% plant-based solutions are safe for families and the environment. Since migrating from manual spreadsheets to Xero, Ollie has gained a bird’s eye view of their business operations and finances. This real-time visibility across multiple sales channels empowers the brand to confidently scale its sustainable sourcing model across Asia.

The Challenge

In earlier stages of growth, Ollie relied on manual spreadsheets to manage its finances, which became increasingly difficult as the business grew and sales channels diversified – from e-commerce platforms to physical pop-ups. This made it difficult for the team to achieve a full picture of their financial health and make decisions effectively, which in turn hampered their ability to scale.

The Solution

Adopting the Xero platform was a game-changer for Ollie, replacing guesswork with a comprehensive view of their entire financial landscape. The team digitalised their back office, from capturing receipts on-the-go to automating bank feeds for rapid reconciliation. By consolidating financial data from various e-commerce marketplaces into a single source of truth, Xero equipped Ollie with the real-time insights needed to turn numbers into growth. With their accounting now simplified and scalable, Ollie can focus on its mission of creating ethically sourced products that deliver mini spa moments to homes across Singapore.
