Keep prices, stock and accounts current without it living in one person's head.
A wholesaler runs on margin and turnover, and both are quietly eroded by admin nobody has time for: price files that arrive and sit, stock reordered from memory, accounts chased when somebody remembers, faulty product credited out and never claimed back. None of it is hard. All of it is constant, and most of it is held by one person who cannot take a fortnight off.
The bottlenecks in this industry.
Supplier price files arrive in whatever format the supplier uses, and updating your own prices and customer price lists is a manual job that waits for a quiet week.
Recommended retail prices are given to stockists without anyone checking what the market is actually charging for the same product.
Reordering depends on one person knowing which lines move, what the minimum order quantity is and how long the supplier takes.
Overdue accounts are chased when somebody remembers, credit limits are often not set at all, and faulty stock is credited to the customer but never claimed back from the supplier.
Built around how this work runs.
Supplier price files in, price lists out
A supplier file is read, your markup or margin rules applied by brand or category, your rounding applied, and an updated customer price list produced for review before anything changes.
Market-checked pricing guidance
Your recommended prices tested against what is advertised publicly, so the guidance you give stockists is based on the current market rather than last year's sheet.
Reordering with approval
Lines that drop below their minimum turned into a draft purchase order against the right supplier, with order quantities and lead times applied, waiting for somebody to send it.
Debtors, credit and claims
Staged reminders on overdue accounts, a flag before an order goes out to a customer already over their terms, and faulty-product claims assembled and drafted to the supplier while the detail is still fresh.
Where this usually lands.

AI Agents
For work that is never quite the same. It works out the steps rather than following a path somebody wrote, you can direct it when something unusual turns up, and what it may do without asking is set down in writing.
AI Automation
Set up once, then left alone: the same job done the same way every time, handed over for your team to run. You only hear from it if something breaks.
