About Us

Finance-led EPR execution for consumer brands and retailer

The CF Team is a specialized advisory practice focused on packaging Extended Producer Responsibility compliance and its financial implications.

We work at the intersection of compliance execution and financial planning — collecting packaging data, preparing state filings, and building the accrual models and fee forecasts that let finance teams manage EPR as a recurring cost line, not a compliance surprise.

This work begins where legal counsel ends. Attorneys define regulatory scope. We execute it operationally and connect it to the numbers.
