B2B Grocery Ordering
B2B grocery ordering is the process of businesses buying groceries and food supplies online from a wholesaler, distributor or retailer. Buyers include restaurants, cafés, hotels, offices and smaller shops, which typically order larger quantities, reorder regularly and may receive account-specific prices, payment terms and delivery schedules.
Why it matters
Moving B2B orders online reduces manual order entry, transcription errors and time spent on the phone, and gives suppliers earlier visibility of demand, which helps with purchasing, staffing and route planning. Many grocers serve both households and business customers, so their ordering tools need to handle both account-based business buyers and everyday household shoppers without separate systems. Wave Grocery's phone ordering module helps digitize orders that still arrive by phone.
