Also serving Mangalore and Mangaluru
Bunder has been the wholesale heart of Dakshina Kannada since the old port days. Its distributors now serve a territory from Kundapura to Kasaragod, and memory no longer scales.
Trusted by 200+ organisations across India & overseas — including
Walk through Bunder on a weekday morning and the trade is visible: sacks of grain and pulses, arecanut, dry fish, spices, hardware, all moving by handcart and tempo. Newer distributors of FMCG goods, medicines and building materials operate from godowns in Kulur, Padil and Baikampady. They supply shops along the coast and up into the Malnad towns. Margins are thin, credit is long, and most firms run on Tally plus the owner's recall of who owes what.
ERPNext for wholesale and distribution manages price lists by customer group, schemes and discounts, sales orders from salesmen in the field, batch and expiry stock, multiple godowns, delivery trips, credit limits, collections and GST with e-way bills. Purchase planning uses real sales history. A Mangalore distributor can see route-wise sales, salesman-wise outstanding and item-wise margin without waiting for the accountant.
A salesman keen on targets books an order for a shop already overdue. Credit limits and overdue checks at the order stage stop the supply or send it for approval, before the goods leave.
Principal companies run overlapping schemes and claims. Unless each free unit and discount is recorded against the scheme, claims are under-filed. Scheme-wise tracking recovers what the distributor is owed.
Vans covering Bantwal, Puttur and Sullia sell from stock on board and settle by handwritten sheet. Mobile invoicing from the van updates stock and cash as each sale is made.
Healthcare
Pharmaceutical and surgical distributors supplying the hospital belt handle batch and expiry, near-expiry returns to companies, institution-wise rate contracts and drug licence details on invoices.
Fisheries and cashew processing
Suppliers of nets, engines, ice, packing material and tins to boats and factories manage seasonal credit, and commodity traders in cashew and arecanut track lots by quality and origin.
Port and shipping logistics
Importers bringing timber, edible oil and other bulk goods through the port track landed cost per consignment, including freight, duty and handling, and sell on to dealers across the state.
We begin with your item list, price structures and customer routes, which tell us most of what we need. After a discovery visit to your godown in Mangaluru, configuration and data upload are done remotely from Kochi in Kerala. Salesmen and van staff are trained in person, since their adoption decides the project. Dakshina Kannada distributors usually go live at a month start, after a supervised stock count.

Yes. Salesmen see the customer's outstanding, last orders, prices and schemes, and book the order on the spot. It reaches the godown immediately for picking, which can bring dispatch forward on outstation routes.
Items, prices and opening stock are uploaded in bulk from spreadsheets, not typed one by one. Barcode scanning speeds daily work. The heavy lifting is a one-time exercise that we do with your team.
Yes. Many Dakshina Kannada wholesalers also sell across the counter. The same stock can be billed through sales invoices for dealers and a POS screen for walk-in customers, with separate price lists.
