How wholesale distributors operate
Wholesale distributors run on account coverage and order frequency. Outside reps cover geographic territories; inside reps handle phone orders. Most distributors use Acumatica, NetSuite, Infor, or SAP for ERP.
Common challenges we see
- Outside reps lack route optimization and drive-time awareness
- Customer-specific pricing from ERP isn't visible to reps in the field
- Category-level cross-sell opportunities go unflagged
- Customers order via phone/email, creating entry errors
- Account visit cadence drifts without systematic tracking
