Use web ordering for larger baskets that need room to review.

Hand off clean orders

One order, two perspectives
Cash and carry web ordering must feel private to the trade account.
A buyer builds the order from the products, prices and history available to their account. When they press submit, desktop catalogue search, repeat baskets, personalised pricing and delivery run notes stay with the order, so the supplier can check it without retyping a call, email or message.
Customer side
Desktop buyers need
- Searchable catalogues that work for larger planned orders.
- Repeat baskets, account prices and delivery expectations.
- A supplier-owned web route instead of a public consumer store.
Supplier side
Supplier teams need
- Approved customer access rather than open retail demand.
- Account terms and fulfilment notes attached to every order.
- Cleaner order review before warehouse and invoice preparation.
