From messaging chaos to professional wholesale ordering.

A unified B2B platform for food wholesalers that turns scattered WhatsApp messages, calls, and emails into one elegant operational workflow - so you can protect customer relationships while taking back control of orders, pricing, and inventory.

Your current workflow works, until it doesn't.

Receiving orders through WhatsApp, phone, and email is personal and fast. But as order volume grows, keeping track of customer-specific pricing, seasonal availability, and fragmented order histories across different channels becomes operationally difficult.

Keep the relationships and flexibility you already have - organize the operational layer around them.

Everything in one place.

Mercante1 replaces the spreadsheets and fragmented messages with a connected, professional operational flow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do restaurants need to download an app?
No. The customized ordering portal runs perfectly in any mobile or desktop browser. Restaurants simply save the link to their home screen.
Can every restaurant have different pricing?
Yes. You can assign specific prices for specific products per restaurant. They will only see their own agreed pricing when they log in.
Can I control which products each restaurant sees?
Yes. Customer-specific visibility lets you hide scarce products or allocate exclusive ranges only to certain clients.
Can I still take orders through WhatsApp or by phone?
Absolutely. Mercante1 is designed to organize your workflow, not force your customers into a box. You can easily enter manual orders yourself.
How does Mercante1 handle limited or seasonal products?
You can set products as 'Request Only'. Instead of ordering directly, restaurants send a request. You review total requests, allocate stock, and send binding offers.
Does Mercante1 generate invoices?
No. Mercante1 tracks what 'Needs Invoicing' and what is 'Invoiced'. You continue to generate official invoices in your existing accounting software.
Does Mercante1 process payments from restaurants?
No. Restaurant orders are not paid through Mercante1.
What is Stripe used for?
Stripe is used exclusively to handle your monthly Mercante1 SaaS subscription.
Can I use my own logo and branding?
Yes. The restaurant portal is branded with your logo, colors, and business name.
Is Mercante1 an ERP?
No. It is intentionally more focused and lightweight than a full ERP or WMS, prioritizing fast, practical ordering and allocation.
