If you're a flooring or home improvement distributor, Ondustry was built with you in mind. Everything on the platform, from how catalogs work to how orders flow, is designed around the way distributors actually operate. Here's a full picture of what the Distributor role gives you.
What Is a Distributor on the Ondustry?
A distributor on Ondustry is a business that supplies flooring or home improvement products to a network of dealers. As a distributor, you are the driving force of the platform.
You publish your catalog, manage your dealer relationships, send out promotions, and process incoming orders. Your dealers connect to you, browse your products, and place purchase orders directly through the platform.
What Can a Distributor Do?
Manage Your Product Catalog: Upload your catalog once via CSV, XLS, or XLSX. Your Pricebook goes live instantly and updates in real time for every connected dealer.
Build and Manage Your Dealer Network: See every dealer in one place, their status, assigned rep, location, contacts, notes, and documents.
Share Announcements and Promotions: Broadcast product launches, promotions, and updates directly to your dealers. Schedule announcements with a start and end date.
Post on the Feed: Share product photos and updates with your dealer network. Use the built-in AI generator to create professional promotional visuals instantly, no designer needed.
Process Orders and Invoices: Incoming dealer orders are routed directly to your Orders section. Review, adjust quantities, generate invoices, or cancel all from one screen.
