Artisanal Solutions / Wholesale Ordering & B2B Portal
Wholesale ordering
Wholesale ordering portal for farms and food makers
Restaurants text their orders, stores email them, and the distributor wants a spreadsheet. We set up a portal with your price lists and minimums so buyers order themselves.
Built for farmers and makers. Set up for you, on the tools you already use.

Price lists
Buyers order themselves, at their own prices
Each account sees its tier, case packs and minimums, and can reorder last week's order in one click.

Questions
What is the best wholesale ordering software for a small food producer?
It depends on who buys. Farms selling to restaurants often fit Local Line. Makers selling to shops usually start with Faire plus a simple portal. Stores already on Shopify can use Shopify B2B. We set up the one that matches your accounts.
Should I sell on Faire?
It is a good way to reach independent shops, at the cost of a commission on marketplace orders. We build the profile and keep your own portal for accounts you already have.
Can restaurants set standing orders?
Yes. Standing orders repeat on their delivery day until the buyer changes them, and each account gets a statement.
