Route accounting for every industry on wheels
Every case. Every stop. Every dollar. One platform.
Retailer orders, warehouse picks, driver scans, delivery proof, and end-of-day settlement — live in one system instead of four spreadsheets and a phone line. For three-truck independents, mid-size houses, and enterprise fleets in any industry. Built by people who have actually loaded the trucks.

One platform. Every seat in the building.
The retailer, the dispatcher, the driver, and the owner all work off the same data — no re-keying between systems.
Retailer Portal
Your customers order 24/7 with their own pricing, par levels, suggested orders, and invoice payments. Phone orders and re-keyed faxes disappear.
Try the store login →Office & Dispatch Console
Live order queue, route assignment, pick tickets, dock scheduling, A/R, and an owner dashboard that leads with the money.
See the console →Driver App
Load-out scanning, delivery confirmation with signature, credits and shorts, COD collection, and settlement — fully offline-capable.
Driver workflow →Warehouse & Labels
GS1-128 case labels to any Zebra printer, inventory by product and lot, receiving, and scan-verified loading — no extra hardware required.
Warehouse ops →If it goes on a route truck, MohnMercantile runs it.
DSD is DSD — the product in the case is the only thing that changes. Any industry that warehouses, picks, loads, delivers, and invoices runs on the same platform.
🍷 Alcohol & regulated goods — Phase 2, in progress.
We're building license-on-file verification, per-state compliance flags, restricted-hours delivery windows, and COD enforcement for alcohol, tobacco, and age-restricted products. A working preview of the engine already runs in the demo — alcohol distributors can get on the platform today for non-regulated SKUs while the compliance layer finishes certification.
Beyond route accounting
The marketplace: manufacturer → retail shelf, no middleman.
MohnMercantile also runs as a B2B marketplace. Emerging brands list their catalog, independent retailers order direct, and the platform handles the rest — invoice, pick list, dispatch.
Consignment trial engine
Brands place one case on the shelf at zero risk. If it moves, the account reorders for real — velocity proven with data, not promises.
Gig logistics dispatch
On order confirm, the platform packages the drop into a work order and dispatches vetted 1099 drivers for white-glove DSD delivery.
Warehouse IoT boards
Low-cost wall displays show live pick counts and staging status the moment an order lands — nobody walks back to a PC.
Smart replenishment
Shelf cameras track product volume in the store; stock below threshold auto-generates the reorder. Coming to pilot accounts.
Pricing that fits a distributor, not a Fortune 500.
No per-seat licenses. No implementation consultants. Flat monthly platform fee scaled to your routes — hosting on Google Cloud typically runs under $40/month at independent distributor volume.

Questions owners actually ask.
Do we have to switch everything at once?+
No. MohnMercantile runs alongside what you have. Most deployments start with the retailer portal or the warehouse live board, prove themselves on the floor, then expand. Your physical workflow doesn't change — the information does.
What hardware do we need?+
Whatever you already have. The office console and retailer portal run in any browser. Live boards run on any HDMI screen, smart TV, or low-cost microcontroller. The driver app runs on any Android phone — no proprietary scanners required, though we support Zebra and other enterprise devices.
What does it cost?+
Hosting on Google Cloud typically runs in the tens of dollars a month, not hundreds — and your deployment is custom-priced for your size, not per-seat licensed. Call 804-898-5939 and we'll quote your operation specifically.
Can you migrate our customers and catalog?+
Yes — we import your account list, pricing tiers, and product catalog during onboarding. You don't re-enter anything by hand.
Does the driver app work without signal?+
That's the point of it. Scans, delivery confirmation, signatures, and COD all work offline in dead zones and sync when the truck has signal again.
What about alcohol and age-restricted products?+
Phase 2, actively in progress — license-on-file checks, state compliance flags, and COD enforcement. Every other product category works today, and alcohol distributors can onboard now while the compliance layer finishes.
See it running before you see a contract.
The live demo is a real deployment — place an order as a retailer, watch it hit the dispatch board, scan a case label. When it looks like your business, we talk.
