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.

Marketplaces

Faire and Mable orders in the same inventory

Marketplace profiles are built from your catalog and draw from the same stock count as the portal and your store.

How it works

  1. Tell us what you make

    What you make and what you use now. A spreadsheet and a Square account is a fine answer.

  2. Get a short plan

    Keep this, replace that, connect these, and the cost.

  3. We set it up

    Setup and migration done for you. You approve before anything goes live.

  4. Run it or hand it off

    Take it from there yourself or keep us on for the upkeep.

A good fit if

  • You spend evenings re-typing orders
  • You want to be on Faire but the setup scares you
  • You sell to ten or more accounts and have no system

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.
