A multi-market franchise on a regional platform
The same catalogue operated in several countries on a platform with no public API, where every market has its own prices, its own compliance answers and its own idea of what a product is called.
For distributors & franchise operators
One catalogue, several operations, and buyers who are companies.
Zuduno gives distribution and franchise teams a shared product, availability and order foundation, with customer-specific workflows scoped on top.
Common operating models
One catalogue across several commercial operations.
B2B orders next to retail orders
A buyer who is a company: a VAT id, reverse charge, a price context that is not the retail one, and an order that arrives as a file rather than through a checkout.
Availability shared with suppliers
The people upstream need to know what you can promise, and the people downstream need to know what you have. Without one availability number both get a spreadsheet emailed on a Monday.
Distributor requirements
Four workflows to map during evaluation.
Price contexts per customer type
Retail, B2B and per-contract prices as contexts on the same variant rather than as duplicate products.
B2B order intake
Orders from business customers land in the same worklists as marketplace orders, with the VAT id and the tax treatment attached.
Availability sharing
Available-to-promise, shared upstream and downstream, computed from the same reservations the channels see.
Multi-market operation
Readiness resolved over the markets a channel serves, so an obligation in one country is not assumed to hold in the next.
Platform foundation
The capabilities that support the operating model.
One record for a catalogue that several operations sell from.
Availability per location and reservations on the shared operational record. Distributor workflows use the same product and stock context.
The documented contract gives a regional platform without an API a consistent import, mapping and validation path.
FAQ
Two objections worth making
Our platform has no public API. Are we out?
That is why Zuduno starts with a documented import contract. If your platform can produce products, customers, orders, lines or refunds as structured files, the contract provides a consistent mapping and validation path.
How do we scope distributor workflows?
We start with the shared product record, locations, availability logic and source data. B2B intake, customer-specific price contexts and supplier-facing availability are then scoped against the processes you actually run.
