Practical business advisory for the whole business.

Strategic Business Consulting Inc. (SBCI) provides practical business advisory for owners and leadership teams focused on growth, operations, performance, market development and change.

Founder Wayne MacLean brings more than 40 years of experience across food manufacturing and processing, distribution, procurement, operations, sales, commercialization and international market development.

His work has included leading major operational improvements; building and commissioning a $10-million food-processing facility; growing business units and improving profitability; implementing systems; negotiating major contracts; and developing international markets.

His experience also includes P&L accountability and M&A evaluation and integration. This gives SBCI an operating and commercial perspective on how business decisions affect performance and what it takes to carry them forward.

That breadth gives SBCI a whole-business perspective: operations, finance, supply chain, sales and leadership are considered together, so recommendations stay practical, connected and focused on results.
