Cash & Carry & Convenience Distribution Software — Cloud ERP

Cash and carry software has to keep up with a floor that never stops — a c-store owner filling three baskets before his shift, a case price that has to be right at the till, and a promotion that ends on Friday whether the system knows it or not. Ximple is cloud ERP for cash and carry and convenience distribution, running POS, inventory, pricing, promotions and B2B eCommerce on one platform.

Whether you operate a single high-volume warehouse or a network of cash and carry depots serving independent c-stores, grocers and foodservice, Ximple connects counter sales, telesales, eCommerce, finance and warehouse operations in real time — so you serve more customers, with fewer errors, at better margins.

See Ximple Run Your Depot and Your Till

Not a generic ERP demo. Show us how you sell today, and we’ll walk through the same workflow in Ximple.

Whether it’s a queue of c-store owners on a Friday afternoon, a promotion that ended yesterday but is still ringing up at the old price, or a rebate claim nobody has time to reconcile — see how Ximple keeps the price, the stock and the deal on the same record.

Customer→ Account→ Case or unit price→ Promotion→ Age check→ Till→ Will-call→ Invoice

See a busy till run start to finish — case, pack or unit pricing pulled correctly, a live promotion applied and expired on time, and age verification handled without slowing the queue.

Vendor deal→ Buydown→ Sell-through→ Scan data→ Rebate claim→ Reconcile→ True margin

See how a vendor deal is loaded once and applied everywhere, how scan data reporting is produced without a spreadsheet, and what a category actually made after buydowns and rebates land.


Have a workflow that is awkward in your current system — a customer whose case pricing never pulls through, a promotion that had to be fixed by hand, a rebate claim that took three months? Bring it to the demo. Use your own SKUs, your own customers, your own deals. We’ll show you how Ximple would handle it.

What we ask : Your depots, your current system, and where the margin leaks

What you see : A till transaction, a promotion applied, and a rebate reconciled

What you get : Fit, migration approach, timeline and next steps

Below are the four things distributors tell us matter most, and what changes when each one is handled properly.

    Challenges Cash and Carry and Convenience Distributors Face — Solved in One System

    Technology, customer expectations, and competitive pressure are reshaping the cash & carry model. Ximple ERP helps you turn those pressures into an advantage by connecting operations, finance, and customer experience on a single platform.

    Cloud vs On-Premise ERP — What Makes Sense for Cash & Carry?

    Ximple ERP can be deployed in the cloud or on-premise. The right choice depends on your size, budget, and IT strategy — but the goal is the same: reliable, fast, and secure operations.

    Feature Cloud ERP On-Premise ERP
    Setup & Maintenance No hardware required, rapid implementation, automated updates. Requires servers, backups, patching, and an internal IT team.
    Access & Collaboration Secure access from any site or device; scales easily as branches grow. Typically limited to office/VPN; scaling requires more hardware.
    Security & Compliance Managed security, encryption, monitoring, and compliance updates. Manual patching and monitoring increase risk if under-resourced.
    Upfront Cost Lower initial investment with subscription-based pricing. Higher upfront capital for servers, licenses, and infrastructure.
    Best For Growth-focused cash & carry distributors and multi-branch networks. Organizations heavily invested in their own data centers and IT staff.

    Outcomes That Matter for Cash & Carry Distribution

    Whether you run one depot or a network of them, the right cash and carry software should show up in three places: how fast the till moves at peak, how much margin survives after promotions and rebates, and how much stock you write off. Those are the numbers Ximple customers watch — and the ones we will ask about on a demo call.

    Faster Order Fulfillment

    Automate picking, packing, and delivery scheduling so orders flow quickly from receiving to checkout and dispatch.

    Enhanced Customer Experiences

    Provide accurate availability, real-time pricing, and clean invoices across POS and online channels.

    Better Margin Control

    Use data-driven pricing, promotions, and rebate tracking to protect margin in a competitive market.

    Lean, Scalable Operations

    Standardize processes across branches and sites so you can grow volume without growing headcount at the same pace.

    Fewer Errors & Less Rework

    Scan-based workflows and centralized data reduce mis-picks, mispriced orders, and manual corrections.

    Actionable Insights

    Dashboards reveal top-performing products, customers, and routes — and where to adjust inventory or pricing.
