For Suppliers & Brands
Walk into every distributor meeting with the exact numbers.
Set your FOB price, see how margins land at every tier, and share pricing that updates itself — instead of another stale spreadsheet.
Set your FOB price, see how margins land at every tier, and share pricing that updates itself — instead of another stale spreadsheet.
Spreadsheets don't understand FOB structures, depletion allowances, or how a distributor margin compounds into a shelf price. Alculator does — every field on the page is a beverage-industry concept, not a cell reference.
Forward mode answers "what will my beer cost at retail?" Reverse mode answers the harder question: "what FOB do I need so it lands at $9.99?" Flip between them per SKU; the engine keeps both directions in exact agreement.
Depletion allowances and post-offs are modeled where they belong — in the landed cost — so the margin you quote a distributor is the margin they'll actually see.
How FOB pricing works →Generate a read-only link to your pricing that any distributor or buyer can open in a browser — no login, no software. Your live data stays private; the link shows a snapshot you control.
Each link tracks how many times it's been viewed, so you know whether that buyer actually opened your pricing before the meeting. Deactivate any link, any time.
Unlimited links on Pro →Distributors on Alculator send suppliers a request link. You fill in your SKUs and FOB prices right in the browser — completely free, no account required — and submit.
They import your line at their own margins, and you keep a free copy of your pricing to build on. It's the fastest way to get your brand into a distributor's book looking professional.
How distributors use requests →Three steps, no imports, no setup calls.
Pick a category template, enter your SKUs and FOB prices, and watch the three-tier math fill itself in — freight, excise, depletion and all.
Send distributors a read-only link instead of an attachment. They see clean, professional pricing in their browser — you see when it's been viewed.
Change an FOB or a margin, publish the new version, and move any live link to it with one click — everyone holding that link sees the new snapshot, with no attachments to re-send.
