OUR EXPERTISE
Why Founders Choose Us
01
CPG Is All We Do
We know the complexities unique to CPG, from trade spend and co-man terms to the nuances of individual retail banners. That depth makes us a trusted partner throughout your organization, well beyond finance.
02
The Experts Do The Work
We have served as finance leads for growing brands, and we're the ones on your account. We know the why behind each number, and nothing gets handed off or outsourced.
03
Confidence in Every Number
We give you full trust in your finances so you can focus on what matters: building the brand, the product, and the sales.
04
A Short Client List, By Design
We'd rather go deep with a handful of brands than spread thin across many. Fewer clients means real attention on yours.
05
Built Around Your Business
We meet you where you are and tailor the engagement to fit your stage, your team, and your goals — no one-size-fits-all package.
06
Trusted Thought Partner
From pricing and fundraising to retail expansion and exit prep, we're the trusted sounding board founders turn to when the decision isn't obvious.

When Founders Call

"I need finance help, but I'm not ready for a full-time hire."
We do the job of an in-house finance team at a fraction of the cost, and we've scaled brands from their first million to well beyond — so we can take you further than the typical fractional CFO. When the day comes that you've outgrown us, we'll tell you ourselves and help you make the hire.

"Retail is knocking, but where do we start, and where do we go?"
We know which retailers fit your brand at each stage, the margin and velocity benchmarks to hit, how to set price-pack architecture and distribution, and how to plan for the cash and inventory big POs demand — from your first buyer meeting to Costco and beyond.

"Revenue is growing, but our bank account isn't."
We build accurate budgets and cash forecasts that keep you ahead of surprises, pressure-test your spend against industry norms — trade spend, marketing, hiring — and map your path to profitability. A lens into the future, not just the past.

From board reporting and investor relations to prepping your next raise or a debt facility, we know what investors care about, what you need to show, and how to tell your numbers' story. They have questions; we have answers.

The Duo Behind Castle Hill
The Duo Behind Castle Hill
Each client gets full attention from both Andrew and David, two complementary backgrounds working as one team on your business.
Each client gets full attention from both Andrew and David, two complementary backgrounds working as one team on your business.
Andrew began in investment banking before moving into corporate development and strategic finance at high-growth companies, then led finance for emerging CPG brands. Blending rigorous financial training with hands-on operating experience, he helps founders turn strategic ambitions into actionable financial plans.
David was Graza's first hire, with a front-row seat to one of the fastest-growing CPG brands of the past decade, leading everything from long-range planning and fundraising to cash management and operations. Having helped scale it into a brand doing hundreds of millions in retail sales, he knows what it takes to build, fund, and grow a category-defining consumer brand.

The brands we work with tend to look a lot alike: early traction, small team, big decisions landing faster than the finance function can keep up. That's the moment we're built for.
