Running a wholesale distribution operation means managing accounts, sourcing, fulfillment, and invoicing all at once. Local delivery — getting your product from your warehouse or production facility to your retail accounts, restaurants, or business customers — is one of the most operationally complex parts of the job. And it’s often the part that’s most expensive to do in-house.
If you’re running your own delivery fleet, you’re carrying fixed costs — vehicle leases, insurance, maintenance, and driver salaries — regardless of whether your order volume justifies it. When volume drops or routes change, those costs don’t flex. Metrobi gives you access to a network of highly rated local drivers on demand, so your delivery capacity scales with your actual order volume, not your payroll.
If your sales or warehouse team is handling deliveries, that’s revenue-generating capacity doing logistics work. Every hour your team spends driving a route to a retail account is an hour not spent on new account acquisition, order management, or fulfillment quality.
If you’re trying to add new retail accounts or expand into new neighborhoods, you don’t need to hire a driver to cover a new zone. Post the job and the platform finds a qualified driver already operating in that area.
Either way, you stay in control. Build a preferred team of drivers who know your accounts and your product. Specify handling requirements for fragile, heavy, or stackable goods. Get a support rep on every delivery, responding in 76 seconds, during business hours and beyond.
Getting your first delivery route out takes minutes. Here is how it works:
Most jobs are confirmed within minutes of posting. No dispatcher calls, no manual routing, no chasing drivers.
Yes, and for wholesale operations, driver familiarity with your accounts pays dividends well beyond reliability. A driver who covers your retail routes consistently knows which loading dock to use, which store manager to hand the invoice to, which accounts are strict about their receiving windows, and how your pallets or cases need to be unloaded. That operational knowledge reduces errors, speeds up each stop, and keeps your accounts satisfied.
Preferred Drivers. After a strong run, add that driver to your Preferred network. They get priority on your future jobs — the same person covers your Monday route and your Thursday restocking run every week.
They become an extension of your account management. A driver who runs your routes regularly represents your business at the store level. Consistency there reinforces the reliability your buyers expect from a wholesale partner.
Ban the ones that don’t meet your standard. If a driver misses a receiving window, handles product carelessly, or creates a problem at one of your accounts, remove them permanently. They’ll never be matched to your jobs again.
Retail buyers and store managers don’t want to be caught unprepared for a delivery. A driver who shows up without notice during a floor rush or outside a narrow receiving window creates friction at the account level. Metrobi’s Receiver Platform keeps your accounts informed automatically, before the driver arrives.
SMS and email notifications go out when the driver is dispatched, en route, and once delivery is confirmed. Your buyer knows their order is arriving and can have the right person at the receiving dock on time.
Live tracking link gives each account real-time visibility into where the driver is. Receiving managers can time staffing accordingly and avoid holding the loading bay unnecessarily.
Proof-of-delivery documentation is captured at every stop — photos of the delivered goods and the option to collect signed acknowledgment. That documentation protects you in any invoice dispute and creates a clean record for your accounts receivable team.
Traditional couriers and regional freight services are built for point-to-point shipments, not multi-stop local distribution to a network of retail accounts. They assign drivers you’ve never vetted, apply rate structures you didn’t negotiate, and offer limited recourse when a delivery is missed or a receiving window is blown.
You control who delivers to your accounts. On Metrobi, you build a preferred team of drivers who know your routes, your products, and your buyers. Not whoever a dispatcher assigns on a given morning.
You control what you pay. Traditional couriers present a rate card with fuel surcharges and minimum fees built in. Metrobi works differently. You set the delivery price. Metrobi suggests a competitive rate based on the market, but the decision is always yours. The only platform fee is a flat driver pool access charge — not a percentage of your invoice value.
You get full visibility. Live GPS tracking, proof-of-delivery documentation, and automated account notifications are standard on every Metrobi delivery. Not add-ons or premium features. Part of every job.
You get real support. If a driver is running late to a receiving window or an account has a last-minute issue, a Metrobi support rep picks up in 76 seconds to help resolve it while the driver is still in transit.
Getting started is simple. Book a call with our team and we’ll walk you through everything step by step.
We’ve helped wholesalers across categories get their local distribution running more efficiently — from specialty food producers restocking their retail accounts to non-food distributors delivering candles, kitchenware, and branded goods to boutiques and retail chains. The goal is always the same: reliable, accountable drivers who know your accounts and keep your retail relationships strong.
Book a call with our team and get started as early as your next delivery run.
You set the price upfront. Drivers apply based on your rate, so there are no surprise fees. Cost varies by distance, vehicle type, number of stops, and load size.
Typical ranges for wholesale businesses:
Use the Metrobi pricing calculator for an instant estimate on your specific route. No commitment required.
Yes, completely. You set the rate when posting a job. Drivers see it and choose whether to apply. You pick from qualified applicants. No minimum rates are imposed and no fees are added without your knowledge.
No contracts, no minimums. Metrobi works on a pay-per-delivery model. Use it for a single restocking run or for daily recurring routes across multiple retail zones. No lock-in period, no cancellation fees.
A small producer restocking five boutique accounts once a week gets the same platform access as a larger distributor managing daily multi-stop routes to dozens of retail locations across a city.
Beyond transparent pricing, Metrobi reduces costs in three concrete ways that matter specifically to wholesale operations.
Route optimization cuts miles and time. Metrobi automatically sequences your account stops for the most efficient path. No manual planning between order confirmation and dispatch. Wholesale businesses typically save up to 30% on mileage compared to manually planned routes. On routes that run weekly or daily, that saving adds up significantly across a full quarter.
You pay for delivery capacity when you need it, not when you don’t. Owning or leasing a fleet means fixed costs regardless of order volume. Metrobi lets your delivery cost flex with your actual shipment volume. Slower weeks cost less. High-volume periods scale without adding permanent headcount.
You decide what you pay, not a platform. The only platform fee is a flat driver pool access charge, not a percentage of your invoice value. For high-value wholesale orders, that distinction matters significantly. A percentage-based model penalizes you for order size rather than delivery complexity.
Wholesale deliveries are rarely light. Cases of product, palletized goods, bulk packaging, and display units require drivers who know how to load, secure, and unload cargo without damage. A general courier who shows up unprepared for the weight and volume of a typical wholesale drop creates problems at the account level and risks product loss.
Specify load requirements on every job. When posting a delivery, you describe exactly what’s being moved — case count, total weight, whether the load requires a hand truck or liftgate, and any stacking or fragility requirements. Only drivers with the appropriate vehicle and capability can apply. Your requirements are sent directly to the driver’s app before pickup.
Vehicle matching matters. A driver who arrives in a vehicle too small for your load wastes your time and theirs. Metrobi matches your job to drivers with the right vehicle for the volume. You specify cargo van or box truck depending on the run.
Proof-of-delivery documentation at every stop. Photos of the delivered goods confirm what was received at each account. If a buyer claims a short shipment or damage, you have a timestamped record from the moment the driver left the vehicle.
Metrobi’s driver network covers the range of vehicles needed for local wholesale distribution. When posting a job, you specify the type and any load or handling requirements. Only drivers with the right vehicle can apply.
You’re never matched with a driver who shows up in a vehicle that can’t carry your full shipment.
Every driver is reviewed by the businesses they deliver for after each job. Metrobi tracks three metrics to surface the best performers:
When multiple drivers apply for your job, Metrobi connects you with the best fit based on these metrics. Higher-rated drivers get priority access to jobs. They’re motivated to perform professionally on every account delivery, including yours.
A last-minute driver cancellation before a scheduled restocking run puts your retail accounts in a difficult position. Buyers who have cleared shelf space, coordinated their receiving staff, or placed your order into their weekly sell-through plan don’t absorb a missed delivery gracefully. Repeated reliability failures cost you accounts.
Metrobi is built around reliability for exactly this reason.
99.3% reliability rate. Only 7 out of every 1,000 delivery requests go unfulfilled. That’s across all routes, including recurring weekly account runs and same-day restocking jobs.
Backup drivers are always in the pool. If your primary driver cancels, the job is immediately available to other qualified drivers in your area. Your account routes don’t go uncovered because one person had an issue.
Support available in 76 seconds. If a cancellation happens, a Metrobi support rep picks up immediately — not a voicemail, not a ticket queue — and works to find a replacement driver before your delivery window closes.
Yes. Multi-stop local distribution is one of the core use cases Metrobi is built for. Add as many account stops as your route requires — the route optimizer automatically sequences them for the most efficient path, reducing time in transit and fuel cost per stop.
Works well for wholesale businesses delivering to:
One driver, one optimized route, all accounts covered. With proof-of-delivery documentation at every stop.
Metrobi covers up to 100 miles from your warehouse, production facility, or distribution point. Enough to serve your existing retail accounts across a full metro area and expand into surrounding markets without adding vehicles or hiring new drivers.
Adding a new account in a neighborhood you don’t currently cover is a route adjustment, not a fleet decision. Post the job with the new stop included and the platform handles the rest.
Metrobi currently operates in 15+ cities across the US, with new markets launching regularly.
