For produce wholesalers, distributors, brokers & retailers
Your best peopleshouldn't be stuck doing busy work.
Datajolt ties together the ERP and systems you already run. We automate the busy work, streamline the reactive work, and put high-impact work in front of the right people at the right time.
Running today at
A layer on top of the ERP you already run, however your team uses it. Connected both ways. Nothing to migrate, nothing to rip out.
How the day changes
Cut down busy work.Focus on the work that makes money.
No two produce businesses run the same way. We start where your team loses the most time. Then we point those hours at declining customers, aging lots, and opportunistic buys to recover and grow margin.
Taken off your plate
The typing and data entry that never ends.
- Orders from PDFs, emails, texts, or even a photo of a handwritten sheet, keyed into your ERP
- BOLs and price confirmations out in one click (or less)
- Price sheets built from live inventory, trimmed to what each customer buys
Handled before it piles up
The manual work that lingers.
- Past-due invoices followed up automatically, so collections don’t depend on hours of manual follow-up
- Credit holds and exceptions flagged, using the rules your ERP already holds
- Short stock flagged to buyers the moment the order comes in
Put on the right desk
The calls and buys that make money, while there’s still time to act.
- Quiet or declining accounts flagged the day their buying frequency breaks
- Aging lots matched to the customers who buy them, offered from your rep’s own inbox
- What your customers bought, in front of you before you commit to a grower’s load
Taking the order is where most systems stop.In produce, the money is in the lot that's turning and the account that's going quiet.
We start with whatever takes up most of your team's day. For most teams that's order entry and manual customer outreach, along with the price confirmations, BOLs and collections that come with every order. Each component is set up around how your office already works.
Take the orders
Your customers keep sending orders the way they do now: PDFs, emails, texts, even a photo of a handwritten sheet. Each one is matched to the right account, every line is scored against what you carry, and the stock is reserved. Your reps check the flagged lines and approve, and the order lands in your ERP ready to pick. It picks up each customer's shorthand, and the price confirmation and BOL go out in one click. The rep who used to type the order is free to make the call.

Keep the customers
Customers rarely leave loudly. An account that took 1,000 cases a month takes 800, then 600, and nobody notices, because nothing changed on any one day. We watch every account's buying rhythm and put a task on the right rep's desk the day it breaks, while there's still a relationship to save.

Get paid
When an invoice goes past terms, a reminder goes out with the invoice attached, either on its own or after a quick look. Each morning you see who owes what, the chasing is already under way, and the phone calls are saved for the accounts that need one. One produce house chases 100+ customers a week this way. By hand, that took a day and a half of someone's week.
This morning's past-due accounts, reminders sent, invoices attached.
Stop the waste
As a lot ages, it gets flagged with someone's name on it and matched to the customers who've bought it before. One click sends the offer from your rep's own inbox, so it lands as a note from someone they know, not a blast from a system. More of what used to hit the dump pile gets sold while it's still worth something.

Hold the line
Before you commit to volume from a grower, you see which of your customers have bought the commodity before and your cost against the terminal market. Price sheets come from live inventory, trimmed to what each customer actually buys. Margin by rep on the same commodity shows who's dropping price before it becomes a habit.

Watch an order go from inbox to ERP.
A PO arrives by email. The agent finds the account, keys every line, matches it to your SKUs and reserves the stock. A rep approves it in one click.

A new system means moving off the ERP everyone knows
It sits on top of the ERP you already run. Nothing to migrate
A new system means someone in your office becomes the trainer
We set it up with you, around how your team works
Customers have to learn a new way to order
They keep ordering the way they do now
The new system needs more checking than the typing it replaced
It learns as it goes, so there's less to check each week
Automation that acts without anyone seeing it
You decide what runs on its own and what waits for a yes

We've run a business like yours.
Before Datajolt, the three of us ran EatStreet, a Madison food delivery company: from under $10M to $50M on thin margins, with a product that spoiled by the hour. No two produce businesses run the same way, and most don't even use their ERP the same way. So we don't hand you a login and a help page. We sit down with your team and learn how orders and collections actually move through your systems and your business. Then we adapt Datajolt to fit and roll up our sleeves with you as an extension of your team, taking the manual friction out of the processes you already have and refocusing everyone on the most profitable use of their time.
