Solutions
Sunhub for distributors
Channel analytics, liquidation, white-label portals and warehousing built around the margin and inventory-turn pressures distributors actually manage.

Built for Distributors
A slow manual quote hands the deal to whoever answered faster, and every order is scattered across email, spreadsheets and calls while your cash sits in upfront inventory. Connected Supply Chain Management Services and the Fulfillment Center pull quoting, deal tracking and stock into one place so you answer first and carry less.

Tools built for distributor margins
Channel analytics
Demand and pricing data across the categories a distributor carries, surfacing where margin is compressing and where a new SKU is picking up demand before it shows up in a quarterly review.
Digital catalog distribution
A distributor's catalog reaches thousands of B2B buyers digitally, extending reach beyond whatever a regional sales team can cover by phone and site visit.
B2B customer management
Account pricing, terms and order history managed in one place, so a growing account base doesn't outgrow a spreadsheet or a rep's personal notes.
Liquidation & overstock
Aging and excess inventory reaches a wider buyer pool than a distributor's existing relationships, recovering more value than a fire-sale write-off.
White-label sales portal
A branded B2B storefront running on Sunhub's infrastructure, so a distributor's own brand stays front and center with its buyers.
Cross-docking & warehousing
Overflow and forward-stocking capacity without building a new warehouse, scaling storage to demand instead of a fixed lease commitment.
Defend margin and inventory turn
Protect margin as manufacturers sell direct
Channel analytics and demand data give a distributor the visibility to compete on service and speed where price alone is under pressure.
Move aging inventory before it's a write-off
Liquidation access reaches buyers a distributor's existing book never would.
Scale storage without a new lease
Cross-docking and forward-stocking flex with demand instead of committing to fixed warehouse space.

FAQs
How does Sunhub help distributors manage margin pressure from manufacturers selling direct?
Sunhub gives distributors tools to defend margin as manufacturers go direct, including channel analytics to see where they compete, white-label portals to hold their own customer relationships, and liquidation to move aging inventory before it becomes a write-off. The aim is to protect turn and margin rather than race the manufacturer to the bottom on price.
Can a distributor run a private, white-label storefront through Sunhub?
Yes. Sunhub offers a white-label sales portal so a distributor can run a branded storefront under its own identity, keeping the customer relationship and catalog experience its own while using Sunhub's underlying platform.
Does liquidation reach buyers beyond a distributor's existing customer base?
Yes. Selling overstock through Sunhub's liquidation channel exposes aging inventory to the wider marketplace of buyers, not just the distributor's existing accounts, which helps move stock before it turns into a write-off.
