Executive summary

Accendo came to KOEIGO Supply as a new vendor with no existing presence on base. Getting a product onto a DeCA commissary shelf normally means navigating unfamiliar logistics, manual paperwork, and zero visibility into how the product actually performs once it's delivered.

Using KOEIGO Supply, Accendo launched at Kadena AB Commissary and โ€” within the first month of verified deliveries โ€” sold through 66% of its initial placement (318 of 481 units). Every delivery was verified on time, with an average lead time of 2.4 days from request to shelf, and not a single damage report or dispute along the way.

Just as importantly, every figure on this page came straight out of the platform. Shipments, invoices, and case-level inventory all live in one system โ€” so the pilot's performance was measurable in real time, not reconstructed after the fact.

The challenge

Selling into an overseas military commissary is hard for a vendor that hasn't done it before. Orders, deliveries, and billing typically live across email and spreadsheets, and once product ships, the vendor is effectively blind โ€” no way to know what's on the shelf, what's selling, or what's about to expire. Accendo needed a way to launch quickly and actually see whether the product was working.

The approach

KOEIGO Supply onboarded Accendo as a vendor and stood up the full workflow on day one:

  • Shipment requests submitted and approved through a single pipeline.
  • Deliveries to Kadena AB Commissary verified and flowed straight into inventory.
  • Case-level stock tracked unit by unit, with expiration and low-stock awareness.
  • Commissary invoices and supplier payouts generated automatically on delivery.

The result

Across 7 shipments and 24 tracked cases, Accendo placed 481 units and sold 318 of them โ€” a 66% sell-through in the first month โ€” while KOEIGO Supply recorded ยฅ348,400 in gross commissary sales. Lead times averaged 2.4 days, and every verified delivery landed clean: zero damage, zero disputes.

About these numbers

Figures reflect Accendo's first month of verified deliveries (june 2026) and were taken directly from the KOEIGO Supply platform's production records โ€” shipments, invoices, and case-level inventory. Sell-through is units sold divided by units delivered; lead time is the average days from request creation to verified delivery across completed shipments. This is a pilot dataset: as Accendo's presence grows, these numbers will be updated to match.
