Wholesale Distribution Use Cases

From restaurant supply to industrial distribution, Maptera powers locators across B2B industries.

Restaurant & Foodservice Supply

Help restaurant owners and caterers find showrooms with commercial kitchen equipment and supplies.

Plumbing & HVAC Wholesale

Contractors need fast access to supplies—show will-call hours and trade account availability.

Electrical Distribution

Display inventory specialties so electricians find the right branch for their project requirements.

Industrial & Safety Supply

Show which branches carry specialty MRO items, PPE, and offer technical support.

Why Wholesale Distributors Need a Location Finder

B2B customers don't browse casually—they have specific needs and tight timelines. When a contractor needs pipe fittings for a job site or a restaurant owner needs commercial kitchen equipment, they need to find the nearest distributor that carries what they need, confirm hours, and understand any account or membership requirements. A comprehensive distributor locator removes friction from this process and positions your company as the go-to supplier in your market.

Whether you operate restaurant supply houses, electrical distributors, plumbing wholesalers, or industrial parts suppliers, an interactive locator helps B2B customers self-serve their location research while capturing valuable lead information for your sales team.
