Food Distribution & Wholesale Management

21 products listed

Introduction

A wholesaler sells hundreds of products to hundreds of customers, each with their own prices, and delivers them on tight schedules. Distribution software handles the order desk, customer price lists, stock, purchasing, invoicing and delivery. Food adds extra needs: best-before dates, lots, items sold by weight and, for drinks, deposits on crates and bottles. The profiled products fall into a few groups. Some serve beverage wholesalers, especially in German-speaking countries. Some serve fresh food and foodservice distributors. Others are billing tools for distributors in India, or trade-spend and rebate software for suppliers.

Who needs it

Food and drink wholesalers, foodservice and fresh food distributors, cash-and-carry markets and van-based delivery rounds. It becomes worth having when price lists differ by customer, when best-before and lot records matter, or when order entry and invoicing take a full-time job.

What to look for

  • Deposit and empties handling. Several beverage-trade products manage crates, kegs and deposit returns, which general wholesale software does not. It matters if you sell drinks in returnable packaging.

  • Catch weight and lot control. Fresh food distributors sell by variable weight and need lots for recalls. Check that pricing by actual weight and lot tracking are built in, not add-ons.

  • Delivery rounds and van sales. Some products include delivery tours, driver apps and proof of delivery, while others stop at the warehouse. Choose according to whether your own vans do the delivering.

  • Local tax and billing rules. Products come from Germany, India, France, the UK and the US, and invoicing rules differ by country. An Indian GST billing tool will not suit a UK wholesaler.

  • Contract length and pricing model. Of the 21 profiled products, 15 are quote only. One publishes per-workstation and per-till fees with a 36-month term for new customers, so read the term before signing.
