E-commerce for food importers and distributors

Your customers order in cases, on terms, at their own price.

Retail platforms assume one price, one unit, and one customer type. Foodservice does not work that way. We build commerce sites that handle contract pricing, case and unit ordering, split shipments, and reps ordering on behalf of accounts — then connect them to the systems that already run your business.

The challenge

Food distribution breaks standard e-commerce

A restaurant buyer, a regional chain, and a home cook cannot see the same catalog at the same price. Your chef customer orders four cases and expects them on Thursday. Your distributor customer orders on net-30 against a contract negotiated last spring.

Most platforms treat all of that as an edge case, so it ends up handled by phone, fax, and email — and every one of those orders is retyped by someone in your office.

Complex pricing

Customer-specific contracts, volume breaks, and promotional pricing that standard carts cannot express.

Case and unit logic

Pack sizes, split cases, and minimums that have to be enforced at the moment of ordering, not after.

System integration

Orders that have to land in the ERP, and inventory that has to be true when the page loads.

Manual order entry

Phone and email orders retyped by staff, with the error rate and labor cost that implies.

Retail platforms vs. foodservice reality

Built for a shopper, not a buyer.

What an off-the-shelf platform assumes
One price, visible to everyone
One unit of measure per product
A credit card at checkout
One person buying for themselves
A first-time visitor browsing for ideas
Integration as a plugin someone else maintains
What your customers actually do
Buy at contract pricing tied to their account
Switch between case and unit on the same item
Order on terms, against a credit limit
Have a rep place the order on their behalf
Reorder the same forty items every week
Expect stock and pricing to match the ERP exactly

We start from how your business already sells, then build the platform around it — including the integrations, because the integration is usually where these projects fail.

Live platforms

Four sites, four different buyers

Importer wholesale, foodservice distribution, and direct-to-consumer brand retail — all running today, all built on the same foundation and shaped to a different customer.

01 — De Medici Imports

A product page a chef can actually buy from

Unit or case toggle, pack size, country of origin, region, monovarietal type, and the producer story on the same record. Shoppers filter a 24-product category by fruitiness or varietal. Every field comes from the product data, not a hand-built page.

Unit / case Pack size Faceted search Producer detail
De Medici product page with unit and case options, pack size, origin, and producer story
Atalanta Premium Pantry category page with deep faceted navigation and live stock status
02 — Atalanta Premium

A wholesale catalog that stays honest

Hundreds of SKUs across brands, filtered by category, varietal, aging, and origin, with in-stock status and case pack on every tile. Buyers see live availability instead of calling to ask.

03 — Cipriani Food

The same foundation, in a luxury brand's voice

A direct-to-consumer storefront for a heritage brand: editorial imagery, gift boxes, multi-currency and multi-language, corporate gifting and scheduled holiday shipping. Wholesale rigor underneath, retail polish on top.

Buy It Again reorder page listing previously purchased items with quantity and case pack
04 — Reordering

Most orders are the last order again

Buy It Again puts a customer's purchase history on one page with quantity steppers and live stock, so a weekly forty-item order takes a minute instead of a phone call. This is the single feature that moves order volume most.

Core capabilities

Three things that move revenue

Account-level pricing

Every customer sees their own contract price, volume breaks, and payment terms. No spreadsheets, no exceptions handled by phone.

ERP order flow

Orders post directly into your system and inventory reads back out, so nobody retypes an order and nobody sells stock you do not have.

Rep-assisted ordering

Your sales team selects a client, sees their history and pricing, and places the order with them on the call.

Case and split-case rules

Pack sizes, minimums, and unit conversions enforced in the cart, not corrected afterward.

Multi-currency and language

Sell across markets from one platform, with pricing and content localized per region.

Faceted product search

Filters built from your real attributes — origin, varietal, pack, certification — not generic retail tags.

PIM-fed content

Product data, imagery, and documents flow from SolarJet PIM so the site is never the stale copy.

Sales reporting

Order lookup, low inventory, aging, and rep performance available to the people who need them.

Ongoing engineering

Platform upgrades, security patching, and new integrations handled by the team that built the site.

Results

What happens when ordering stops being manual

Swiss Chalet Fine Foods moved its distribution business onto a platform with rep-assisted quick order, account-level pricing, and direct ERP order flow. The pattern has held across every platform we have built since.

288%
year-over-year revenue increase from automated online orders
150%+
growth in average transaction value as reordering got easier
Millions
in annual revenue processed through the platform
Zero
orders retyped by office staff from phone, fax, or email

Swiss Chalet Fine Foods has since been consolidated into Atalanta Premium, which runs on the same platform today.
