The standing-order rhythm of restaurant supply, codified.
Per-customer catalogs, route-day cutoffs, repeat orders, and a B2B storefront so chefs can self-serve at midnight.
The pain points that drove us to build for foodservice.
These are the realities that came up on every conversation with foodservice distributors. APFoods was built to make them go away.
Standing orders forgotten
Tuesday's route is supposed to include the same six items for Pho 24, but a tired order-taker missed one. The chef calls Wednesday morning, angry.
Inconsistent customer pricing
Rep-A quotes $24, Rep-B quotes $26 — for the same SKU, same customer, same week. Margin walks out the door.
Order-takers drowning
Every restaurant calls between 3pm and 4pm. Your six order-takers can't pick up. Customers go to a competitor.
Six modules tuned for foodservice.
Not just generic ERP — every screen and workflow shaped by the way foodservice operations actually run.
Standing orders by route day
Recurring orders auto-generate by customer route day. Pho 24's Tuesday list shows up on every Tuesday route, automatically.
Per-customer catalog & pricing
Each restaurant logs in to see only what they're approved to buy at their negotiated price. No catalog surprises.
4pm cutoff workflows
Hard cutoff at 4pm; orders after that ship the next route day. Customers know where they stand.
B2B storefront on your domain
shop.yourdistro.com lets chefs place orders themselves at 11pm — and the order lands in your ERP as a real SO.
Credit-limit enforcement
AR + confirmed-unbilled exposure checked before every order. The slow-pay restaurant can't blow past their limit.
Driver delivery proof
Photo of every drop, signature on every invoice. Disputes resolved before they happen.
