Stomp Distribution has selected ShipEarly as its enterprise B2B Commerce platform, replacing its legacy in-house ordering system with a modern, scalable commerce solution designed to support continued growth, international expansion, and an enhanced dealer experience.
As Stomp Distribution expanded its product portfolio and dealer network, its home-built commerce platform increasingly became difficult to scale. Years of custom development had created complex business rules that made it challenging to introduce new capabilities, onboard new markets, and support global sales operations.
ShipEarly provides the flexibility, performance, and enterprise architecture required to support Stomp Distribution’s next phase of growth.
Overcoming the Limitations of a Home-Built Platform
Many distributors begin with internally developed ordering systems that evolve over many years.
While these systems often meet immediate business needs, they frequently become increasingly difficult to maintain as the business grows.
For Stomp Distribution, years of customizations and embedded business logic created challenges around:
- Scaling to support growing dealer volumes
- Supporting global sales teams across multiple regions
- Introducing new business rules without extensive development
- Managing account-specific pricing at scale
- Delivering modern dealer self-service capabilities
- Supporting multiple currencies and payment methods
- Accelerating new feature releases
Rather than continuing to invest in maintaining legacy infrastructure, Stomp Distribution chose a purpose-built B2B Commerce platform designed specifically for manufacturers and distributors.
A Personalized Dealer Experience
Every dealer now receives an account-specific storefront tailored to their relationship with Stomp Distribution.
The platform automatically displays:
- Customer-specific pricing
- Personalized product catalogs
- Contract pricing
- Open orders
- Shipment tracking
- Invoice history
- Credit availability
- Payment history
Each dealer experiences a storefront unique to their business, eliminating manual quoting while improving accuracy and efficiency.
Real-Time and Future Inventory Visibility
Dealers can now view both current inventory and future inventory availability directly within the portal.
This includes:
- Real-time inventory
- Future available inventory
- Incoming purchase orders
- Expected availability dates
Sales teams and dealers can plan purchases with confidence while reducing calls to customer service.
Embedded Invoice Payments
ShipEarly enables dealers to manage invoices and payments directly from their account.
Features include:
- Outstanding invoice visibility

ERP Integration
ShipEarly integrates directly with Stomp Distribution’s ERP, synchronizing:
- Products
- Customers
- Pricing
- Inventory
- Orders
- Shipments
- Invoices

This creates a single source of truth while eliminating duplicate data entry.
Built for Global Sales Teams
One of the primary goals of the new platform is supporting continued international growth.
ShipEarly provides capabilities for distributed sales organizations including:
- Multi-currency support
- Region-specific pricing
- Territory management
- Sales representative ordering
- Dealer account management
- Mobile access
- Customer-specific catalogs

Rather than forcing every region to operate the same way, the platform adapts to different sales models while maintaining centralized control.

Unlike traditional custom-built systems that require software development for every workflow change, ShipEarly enables business administrators to configure many rules without writing code.
This includes:
- Approval workflows
- Spending limits
- Purchasing permissions
- Account hierarchies
- Customer segmentation
- Pricing visibility
- Payment options
This flexibility allows Stomp Distribution to adapt quickly as the business evolves without accumulating technical debt.
