Pepper's $30 Million Series B Milestone: Empowering the Future of Food Distribution

At Pepper, we’ve always been tracking toward one goal—to reimagine the way technology serves the independent food distribution industry. Today, there are more than 25,000 independent distributors that serve as the backbone of the food industry. Yet they have been largely overlooked and underserved by existing tech solutions. In an era of increasing consolidation and competition from large corporate distributors, we believe it’s critical to preserve the diversity of the industry. That’s why, since our inception, we’ve been obsessed with building software to both elevate and future proof the role of independent food distributors.

Elevating User Experience: How Pepper's UI/UX Design Leads the Food Distribution Software Industry

When it comes to software in the food distribution sector, the importance of an intuitive and efficient User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX), especially across mobile devices cannot be overstated. Mobile phone usage is trending upwards and accounts for over 60% of daily web traffic. A complex or confusing interface can create barriers, waste time, and ultimately cost businesses money. On the flip side, Forrester Research report states that, "a well-designed user interface could raise ecommerce conversion rates by up to 200%". Pepper understands this all too well, which is why we've committed to creating an industry-leading UI/UX experience across all devices, with a special emphasis on mobile. In this blog post, we'll delve into the design principles and forethought that make the Pepper platform stand out in the market.

6 Ways that AI Plays in Food Service Distribution (For Real)

One topic consistently captures the collective imagination in food service, especially if you work in distribution or manufacturing: the evolving role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its implications for the industry. The conversation around AI is not about an abrupt emergence reminiscent of sci-fi scenarios—far from being a sudden apparition akin to Jarvis from Ironman or Skynet from Terminator. In reality, AI has been subtly weaving its way into the fabric of food service for quite some time, albeit in less conspicuous ways. With that, let's take a look at where AI has been in food service, then dig into 6 ways we see AI playing in food service right now.‍‍

6 Ways Pepper Uses AI To Help Distributor Sales Reps Work Smarter

We love the AI excitement here at Pepper, but if there’s one thing we know for certain, it’s that distributor sales representatives (DSRs) are not going to be replaced with autonomous agents. Distributors are not merely transaction machines between suppliers and buyers, but are increasingly strategic partners that help buyers identify opportunities, suppliers, and ingredients that matter to their businesses. There’s a relational and human element to that that’s not going away.‍
