Overview
Dirt Face Distribution is wholesale fence software for distributors and dealers. Your fence catalog becomes a branded storefront with retail and wholesale price tiers, POS, online orders, and inventory. Dealers order without a separate Shopify rebuild.
The store lives at a subdomain such as yourstore.fence-store.online. You can keep that URL or serve the same store on a subdomain of your own website so product pages count toward your domain in search.
Step 1: Activate the store
Turn on ecommerce for your company and claim a storefront subdomain. Categories come from the parts you already sell.
Step 2: Set retail and wholesale prices
Define retail plus wholesale groups. Assign each dealer to a group from the customer record. Contract pricing can override specific items.
Step 3: Invite dealers and take orders
Dealers get accounts for catalogs, quick order, credit, and statements. The counter uses POS for walk-up sales. Card checkout uses your payment processor when you take cards online.
Step 4: Fulfill from the same stock
Online and POS orders pull inventory. Shop-fabricated goods can sell after they hit the warehouse. See fence inventory.
Who this is for
- Fence wholesalers and distributors
- Manufacturers with a dealer network
- Contractors who also run a supply yard
FAQ
Can Dirt Face replace Shopify?
For a fence dealer store, yes. The catalog and price groups already live in Dirt Face. You do not rebuild SKUs in a generic ecommerce app.
Do I have to sell retail and wholesale?
No. Use retail only, wholesale only, or both.
