Wholesail builds custom B2B ordering portals for auto parts distributors, automotive wholesale suppliers, and shop supply companies. Mechanics and shop owners search by part number or vehicle fitment and place orders directly — live inventory, per-account pricing, and same-day delivery cut-offs included. Live in under 2 weeks.
Mechanics need the part today. Every minute they spend on hold with you is a minute they spend looking elsewhere.
Shops call four times a day just to check if a part is in stock before they even think about ordering — tying up your counter staff constantly.
Part number searches over the phone require your staff to navigate multiple systems and read numbers back — it's slow and error-prone.
Same-day delivery cut-offs are communicated by word of mouth, and shops miss the window and blame you when their part doesn't arrive.
Each shop has different negotiated pricing and credit terms, and your team adjusts invoices manually after orders come in by phone.
Live inventory is visible in the portal by part number, make, and model. Shops check availability in 10 seconds and place the order without calling.
Shops search by part number, OEM number, or vehicle fitment directly in the portal. Results appear instantly with stock levels and pricing.
Same-day cut-off countdowns are displayed on every product page. Shops see exactly how long they have to order for same-day delivery.
Per-shop pricing and credit terms are built into every account. The price a shop sees in the portal is the price on the invoice — no adjustments.

We used to get 60 inbound calls a day, half of them just asking if we had a part in stock. Now our shops check inventory online, place the order, and we see it in the fulfillment queue. Call volume is down more than half and we haven't lost a single account.
