The ordering app for food wholesalers

Your customers order in your own app, your field sales team on iPad. Prices, stock and credit limits come from your ERP, and every order goes straight back into it.

What orders by phone, fax and WhatsApp cost you

Every order someone types in by hand can arrive wrong. And if no one can see the stock, you sell what is missing or hold on to goods until they spoil.

  • Retyping takes time

    Your team types orders from calls, faxes, emails and WhatsApp messages into the ERP by hand, every single day.

  • Errors in transcription

    A misheard item, a wrong quantity, an illegible line: the wrong goods go out and come back.

  • Stock no one can see

    Your customer orders what is no longer there and only finds out on delivery.

  • Goods that end up in the trash

    Without a clear view of demand and stock, best-before dates pass and the goods are thrown away.

With Elix Suite, every order arrives in your ERP exactly as your customer placed it, checked against your current stock.

One system, three parts

The customer app, the field sales app and your ERP work together. Every order arrives in the same place, no matter who places it.

How an order reaches you

A restaurant orders its supplies for next week. Six steps, from opening the app to the sales order in your ERP.

01

The home screen

Your customer opens your app. The home screen shows offers, bestsellers and new products, plus the items they order most.

  • Offers, bestsellers and new products in one tap
  • A list of the items your customer orders most
  • Banners for your promotions
How an order reaches you

Ordering gets easier for your customers

Your customers always have your product range, their orders and their invoices at hand, in their own language.

  • Reorder in one tap

    Your customer puts a previous order back in the cart with one tap, quantities and units included.

  • Ready-made product groups

    Your customer adds the sets you have put together to the cart all at once with “Add all.”

  • Invoices as PDFs

    Your customer sees open and overdue invoices at a glance. They open invoices, order documents and account statements in the app, and share or print them.

  • In four languages

    German, Turkish, English and Arabic. In Arabic, the whole app runs from right to left. We add further languages as you need them.

  • Stock checked before every order

    Before an order goes out, Elix Suite checks every line against your current stock. If there is not enough, the app lowers the quantity or removes the item and shows your customer what changed.

Orders on iPad, on site with your customers

With the field sales app, your team has the figures, the customer account and your catalog on iPad during every customer visit, with that customer's prices. Your reps enter the order while the conversation is still going.

Target and revenue

The dashboard shows the month's revenue target and how much of it has been reached. Your team sees revenue, orders and average order value for the month, quarter or year.

You set the rules

You decide on prices, content and access. The app follows your rules with every order.

  • One price list per customer

    Every customer sees the prices from their own price list in your ERP, promotions included.

  • Stories and banners in one place

    You manage stories, banners and product groups centrally, and your customers see them on the home screen of their app.

  • News by push notification

    New products, discounts and stories appear as push notifications on your customers' phones. They choose which topics they receive.

  • Minimum order value and credit limit

    You set the minimum order value for each customer. If open invoices exceed the credit limit, the app does not accept any orders.

  • You grant access

    You invite existing customers, one by one or all at once. New customers apply for an account, and you approve it.

Prices that follow German rules

What prices and documents in German food wholesale must show, Elix Suite shows from day one.

  • Unit price per kilo and liter

    Below every item, in the list and on the product page, is its unit price as required by Germany's Price Indication Ordinance (PAngV).

  • Deposit on its own line

    Single-use, reusable and crate deposits each appear on their own line in the cart, in the order and on the invoice.

  • 7 and 19 percent kept separate

    Both VAT rates appear separately in the order and on the invoice.

  • Net prices

    Your customers see net prices; the gross amount appears only in the total.

Worked example

Your name, your logo, your colors

Your customers download an app that carries your name and your app icon. When they open it, they see your logo, and the app appears in your colors.

The app is published through your own developer accounts with Apple and Google or through the ASES account. You decide.
