Why Retail Is Different

What Changes When Your Snacks Land a Retail Account

  1. 1

    Orders Arrive as EDI

    Retailers send purchase orders electronically. We receive POs and send advance ship notices and invoices through SPS Commerce.

  2. 2

    Vendor Rules Come With the Account

    Each retailer has its own vendor and routing requirements. We review them with you and set up shipments to follow them.

  3. 3

    Retail Buyers Ask About Dates

    Lots and best-by dates are tracked in ShipHero WMS, so you can answer when a buyer asks what dates they received.

  4. 4

    DTC Can't Stop for a PO

    Retail purchase orders ship from the same inventory as your online orders, so a big PO doesn't pause your Shopify store.
