The Future in Stock: Announcing the 2026 Cin7 Award Winners

Every year, a handful of brands and partners show us where inventory management is headed. This year's Cin7 Awards go to the ones already there.

From founders rethinking how stock moves to partners rewriting what implementation looks like, these are the people pushing the Cin7 ecosystem forward. Here's who took home an award at the Cin7 Summit banquet in 2026.

Customer Awards

Inventory Icon of the Year: Baby2Baby

This award goes to a customer who turned inventory control into a competitive edge, sharper fulfillment, tighter accuracy, and fewer surprises along the way. Baby2Baby's operation shows that you can do more good when you’re more efficient. We’re happy to help them distribute diapers, formula, clothing, and other basic necessities to more than a million kids a year across all 50 states.

Brand Leader Award: Lemme

Lemme's growth shows what happens when a brand knows exactly who it's building for. This award recognizes a brand that's setting the pace for what a modern, customer-first business looks like. Cin7 helps keep that clarity running behind the scenes as they scale their gummy vitamin and wellness supplement line.

Operational Excellence Award: Brain Dead

Cutting the noise out of day-to-day operations takes more than good intentions, it takes automation and system integration done right. That's exactly what earned Brain Dead this award, streamlining the backend so they can keep pace with a steady stream of bold apparel drops.

System Innovation Award: Soom

Not every solution comes off the shelf. Soom built its own workflows and systems, and this award is a nod to what's possible when a team gets creative with the tools in front of them. We can’t wait to see what they do next as they grow the organic tahini and sesame products chefs reach for first.

Holiday Hero: Haute Diggity Dog

Peak season tests everyone. Haute Diggity Dog didn't just survive it, they ran it clean, with fulfillment and multichannel coordination that held up when it mattered most. But they aren’t just performing during the holidays. Their designer parody plush toys are stocked and moving all year long.

Omnichannel Mastery Award: Ripple

A real omnichannel strategy is more than a checklist, it's inventory and sales staying in sync across every channel at once. Ripple Foods turned that into one seamless experience out of many touchpoints so their pea protein milk and yogurt line connected from retail shelf to online cart.

Emerging Brand: Painterland Sisters

Some brands make their mark fast. Painterland Sisters is early in their story, and this award is a nod to how much ground they've already covered. We're proud to be one of the systems behind their organic skyr yogurt as they grow their fourth-generation family dairy farm into a national brand.

Partner Awards

Partner of the Year: Integration Kings

This award goes to the top-performing partner who exemplifies excellence across the board, delivering consistent customer success and driving adoption of Cin7. Integration Kings set that standard through a holistic, hands-on approach to business consulting helping clients across Australia and beyond improve control of their operations.

Agency of the Year: Four13

It takes smart design, strong strategy, and seamless execution to earn this award. Four13’s working helping businesses grow their e-commerce brands through storefronts, SEO, and paid media that actually convert while introducing them to Cin7 to help sync inventory, orders, and fulfillment across channels.

Accounting Partner of the Year: Fiskal Finance

This award goes to a partner that goes beyond the numbers to drive real value. We’re proud to honor a finance partner who helps clients gain clarity and control over their operations. Fiskal Finance connects accounting, inventory, and reporting into one reliable financial operating system for growing product businesses.

ISV Partner of the Year: iplicit

iplicit provides a seamless, high-impact integration and helps significantly extend what the Cin7 platform can do. They built their reputation on cloud accounting software with real-time reporting and multi-entity capabilities for growing businesses and continue to give finance teams the visibility that spreadsheets never could.

Client Support Award: Hawk Cloud Consulting & BlueHub

Showing up for clients with hands-on service and trusted guidance is exactly what Hawk Cloud Consulting and BlueHub did to deserve this award. They’re both true customer heroes who act as an extension of their clients' teams. They both built their reputations helping inventory-led businesses untangle disconnected systems. We're confident they’ll both keep answering the call when clients hit a wall.

Implementation Design Award: Symphony Development Group

We’re proud to give this award to Symphony Development Group for their tailored implementations built on a strategic, customer-first approach. They’re a partner who knows great outcomes come from great collaboration and we’re happy to continue to collaborate with them to help small businesses grow.

Breakthrough Partner Award: tick9

It takes an outsized impact in a short amount of time to earn our Breakthrough Partner Award. This year we’re giving it to tick9 as an emerging partner who's quickly proving to be one to watch. They’ve built a name helping UK mid-market businesses connect finance, inventory, and intelligence into one system and keep turning legacy setups into something faster and smarter.

Tech Impact Award: Beyond Expectations

Beyond Expectations earned this award for simplifying complex workflows through seamless, automated data exchange. They have spent over a decade integrating complex systems through APIs, including their own custom-built tool, to eliminate manual work. We're happy to help them keep living up to their name for clients who need more than an out-of-the-box setup.

Congratulations to all of this year's winners. If this is what's already happening in the Cin7 ecosystem, the next twelve months should be worth watching.
