Use case
Food and beverage
For distributors that sell on credit to supermarkets, shops and restaurants, and buy from producers and importers.
How credit sales and purchases work in food and beverage
The distributor gives each retailer a limit and a term based on the trust built along the route, and in turn buys on credit from its suppliers. Everything moves fast, with many small customers and invoices every week.
What takes the most work today
- Limits and terms that live in spreadsheets and in the salesperson's memory.
- Collections that depend on one-by-one messages and calls.
- Customer payments that have to be reconciled by hand against the bank.
- Supplier invoices that arrive by email and are entered one by one.

An example
A distributor gives each shop a limit of USD 1,500.00 at 15 days. The shop receives its link, sees its balance and pays through its bank. After three months of paying on time, Fluye suggests raising its limit and the distributor decides.
