Wholesale Inventory Management

Inventory and B2B order management for small wholesale businesses

Stowed replaces the spreadsheet-and-text-message routine with one iPhone app: accurate stock counts, an order pipeline built for repeat B2B customers, and pricing that's different for every account -- automatically.

If you sell the same products to the same business customers again and again -- a wholesale coffee roaster, a beverage or food distributor, a maker selling into retail accounts -- generic inventory apps and retail point-of-sale tools don't fit how you actually work. Stowed is built around the parts of running a wholesale business that spreadsheets and consumer apps get wrong.

What "wholesale inventory management" actually needs to solve

Most small wholesale operations start on a spreadsheet, and it works right up until it doesn't: two people update stock counts at once and one version wins, a customer's negotiated price lives in someone's memory instead of the system, and nobody can say with confidence what's actually on the shelf versus what's already been promised to an order.

Stowed is designed around the three things that actually break first:

Stock that stays accurate

Barcode scan in and out, with a full movement ledger, so the count on your phone matches the count in the warehouse.

An order pipeline, not a checkout

Orders move draft → confirmed → packed → shipped → completed, with stock updating automatically at every step.

A price per customer

Set each wholesale account's negotiated rate once. Every order after that bills correctly without anyone doing the math.

Built for the businesses that actually run this way

Stowed's first customers are small wholesale coffee roasters, food and beverage distributors, and makers who sell into repeat retail or food-service accounts. If your business bills the same customers over and over at negotiated prices, out of a real warehouse, this is what Stowed was built for.

Frequently asked questions

What makes Stowed different from generic inventory apps?

Stowed is built specifically for wholesale B2B selling, not retail. Every customer can have their own negotiated price, orders move through a draft-to-shipped pipeline instead of a single checkout, and the Money page tracks what each business customer owes you -- not what one consumer paid at the register.

Can I replace my inventory spreadsheet with Stowed?

Yes. Stowed replaces the two things spreadsheets are worst at for a wholesale business: keeping stock counts accurate as multiple people sell from the same inventory, and remembering which customer gets which price.

Does Stowed work for coffee roasters, distributors, and makers?

Yes -- Stowed is built for any small business that sells repeat B2B orders out of a warehouse: wholesale coffee roasters, beverage and food distributors, makers selling into retail accounts, and similar operations.

How much does wholesale inventory management with Stowed cost?

Plans start at $19.99/month (Starter), $49.99/month (Growth), and $149.99/month (Pro), with a 2-month free trial for every new signup during launch. A subscription covers your whole organization, not per seat.
