Not a distributor
You keep supply, fulfilment and margin
Not a broker
We stay on the account after the door opens
Not an agency
Compliance and buyer process, not campaigns
Your brand already sells.
The shelf is the gap.
We are a market access and channel management partner. We open Chemist Warehouse Online, Australian grocery retail, and the UAE and GCC market for established brands, then run the channel once it is open.
Most brands do not have a product problem. They have an access problem.
You have proven demand in your home market. The retail channel you want next has a submission process, a compliance bar, and a buyer who has seen a thousand decks. That is a different discipline to the one that got you here.
LaunchGrid runs that discipline. We are one of very few firms that hold both the Chemist Warehouse channel competency and end-to-end GCC regulatory capability under one roof, with a Sydney and Dubai presence covering both ends of the route.

Chemist Warehouse Online access and management
Chemist Warehouse Online is a competitive buyer process, not a listing you can purchase. What we control is putting your brand in front of their team in a form they will accept and act on. Incomplete submissions are rejected outright.
You nominate which SKUs lead commercially. You know your range and your margins. Our role is to validate and pressure-test those picks against category and compliance requirements, and to tell you honestly which ones will stall in review before you spend a month finding out.
Once you are live, the work changes shape. We hold the seller portal, the listing accuracy, the order flow and the promotional calendar so your team is not learning a marketplace back-end on the job.
What this covers
Submission form preparation and lodgement
ARTG and claims compliance review
Listing copy and image spec QA
Buyer and onboarding liaison
Seller portal and account management
Order sheets and fulfilment coordination
SKU validation against category fit
Promotional planner submissions

UAE and the Gulf
UAE and GCC market entry, end to end
The Gulf is not a market you enter with a freight forwarder and good intentions. Product registration, labelling, and certification all sit upstream of the first order, and getting them wrong costs you a shipment and a season.
We run the regulatory pathway and the physical retail placement as one piece of work, because they are one piece of work. Our Dubai entity and our relationship with the NSW Trade and Investment Commissioner in the UAE mean the route is held at both ends.
This is the deeper of our two service lines and we reserve it for brands with the volume to justify it.
What this covers
MoHAP product registration
ECAS conformity
Arabic labelling compliance
Halal certification pathway
HS code classification
Importer and route structuring
Physical retail placement
Ongoing market management
