Yet most food and beverage manufacturers and distributors are still operating with legacy ordering systems. Your team is drowning in order emails. Your customers are frustrated. You're losing deals to suppliers who actually have functioning online portals.

Uncap builds B2B ecommerce platforms specifically for food and beverage companies. Your customers get a self-service ordering experience built for how they actually buy. You get 30 percent reduction in technology costs, automated workflows, and a real competitive advantage.

The global food delivery market exceeded 1 trillion in revenue in 2023. B2B ecommerce will hit 20 trillion by 2027. Your buyers are ready. The question is whether you are.

The hidden cost of manual ordering in food and beverage

Your sales team is stuck processing orders instead of selling

A buyer of packaged foods calls requesting a quote on bulk ingredients. Your rep emails a price sheet. The buyer replies with questions about availability. Your rep calls back. A week later the order comes via email attachment. Your team manually enters it into your system. The buyer's accountant calls asking for an invoice. By the time the order is processed, you've spent hours in admin work. Your rep hasn't spoken to a single new prospect all week.

Managing massive product catalogs is a nightmare

You're carrying thousands of SKUs. Packaged foods, beverages, alcohol and spirits, fresh and frozen goods, ingredients, snacks, coffee, tea, health and wellness products, dairy and alternatives. Your current system can't keep up. Search is broken. Filtering doesn't work. Buyers can't find what they need so they call your team. Or they shop a competitor.

Pricing complexity kills margins and trust

A restaurant chain gets volume discounts. A grocery wholesaler gets different rates. A mom and pop shop pays retail. Pricing changes by customer segment, by product category, by order size, by season. You're managing pricing in spreadsheets and emailing custom quotes. When customers see different prices than expected, you lose trust. When you miscalculate, you lose margin.

Inventory visibility is non-existent

A buyer asks if you have fresh frozen goods in stock. You check your ERP. You don't have real-time visibility to your warehouse inventory. You certainly don't know your supplier's stock levels. So you promise stock you don't have or tell them to call back. Meanwhile they order from a competitor who shows live inventory.

Payment and payment terms are inflexible

Restaurants need net 30 or 60 payment terms. Wholesalers need financing for bulk orders. Some buyers need deposits. Without flexible payment options built into your platform, you're handling every transaction manually. Your accounting team is drowning in credit management and collections work.

Built for how food and beverage buyers actually order.

• Massive catalog management: Thousands of SKUs across packaged foods, beverages, alcohol and spirits, fresh and frozen goods, ingredients, snacks, coffee, tea, health and wellness, and dairy alternatives. All searchable, filterable, and organized. Buyers find what they need in seconds. Advanced search with dynamic filtering and AI-driven recommendations power discovery across your entire range.
• Customized pricing engine: Different customers pay different prices. Set up pricing tiers for restaurants, wholesalers, corporate buyers, and retail accounts. When a buyer logs in, they see their price instantly. No manual overrides, no email negotiations, no disputes.
• Real-time inventory visibility: Buyers see live stock levels across your warehouses. If you don't have something in stock, they see the next available delivery date. No more promising stock you don't have. No more wasted phone calls.
• Flexible payment terms and financing: Offer net 30, 60, 90 terms. Support deposits and financing for bulk orders. Let buyers purchase with confidence. You get paid predictably. Your accounting team is freed from manual credit management.
• Automated quoting and CPQ integration: Buyers of bulk ingredients or specialty products often need custom quotes. Uncap's quoting system integrates with your CPQ platform to generate accurate quotes in real time. They convert quotes to orders with one click.

Integrated promotions and discounts: Move inventory on your schedule. Deploy promotions tailored for specific products, categories, or customer segments. Flash sales, seasonal promotions, quantity-based discounts. All managed from one dashboard with real-time analytics.
