Challenges we hear about

The pain points that drove us to build for importer / broker.

These are the realities that came up on every conversation with importer / broker distributors. APFoods was built to make them go away.

FX moves eat your margin

POs in EUR settle in USD weeks later. By then, the dollar moved 3% and your margin is gone.

Container costs aren't allocated

Freight, duty, broker fees land as separate bills. Your unit-cost shows the supplier price only — and your buyer sees a different reality.

EDI is a separate, brittle integration

850/856/810 files mapped by hand. Every customer onboarding takes weeks.

What's purpose-built for you

Six modules tuned for importer / broker.

Not just generic ERP — every screen and workflow shaped by the way importer / broker operations actually run.

Multi-currency POs

POs in any currency. FX rate captured at receipt; settled value tracked. Margin reflected in real time.

Container-level cost allocation

Freight, duty, broker fees allocated by weight/value/units across all items in the container.

Blanket POs with releases

Annual contract, monthly releases. Each release tracks against the blanket without duplicate entry.

EDI 850/856/810 built-in

Standard EDI flows for major retail and foodservice customers. Mapping done by us, not your IT team.

Multi-warehouse routing

Inventory in Newark + Long Beach + Houston. Orders routed to closest stocking warehouse automatically.

Tariff & duty tracking

HTS codes captured per SKU. Duty rates flow into landed cost. Audit-ready records when CBP asks.

Estimated savings

What modern software typically saves.

The math behind the pitch.

These are estimates from industry benchmarks and what comparable distributors typically save by moving to a modern platform — not promises, not customer testimonials. Your numbers will vary based on current spend, fleet size, and order volume.

If any of these sound like you…

APFoods was built for these use cases.

I import 50 containers a year and need landed cost allocated per item, not per shipment.

I issue blanket POs to my suppliers and release against them monthly.

I sell to a major retailer who requires EDI 850/856/810.

I need multi-currency PO and AP, with FX captured on receipt.
