What it is
BlueCart is wholesale business software connecting food and beverage distributors with restaurants, cafes, hotels, and other foodservice buyers. It combines a digital storefront, buyer-specific catalogs and pricing, order management, inventory tracking, delivery routes, invoicing, payment collection, and buyer CRM. Buyers and suppliers can create, track, and fulfill purchase orders, including recurring orders and invoice-to-PO matching. Endless Aisle shows vendor catalogs to buyers in their delivery areas, while Pricing Insights groups products as Great Value, Good Value, or Fair Value. BlueCart Pay supports credit card, bank transfer, and ACH payments, with invoice and payment status tracking. A sales rep app lets field teams view catalogs, manage buyer accounts, place orders, review order history, and check delivery status. BlueCart documents a REST API using AWS Signature authentication v4 and JSON responses; it handles one object per request and does not support bulk updates. The BlueCart for Buyers iPhone app requires iOS 15.6 or later. Pricing varies with selected features and is available on request.
