Built for food & drink wholesale
Plan every load a food and drink wholesaler runs - early-morning restaurant and cafe drops, school and care home mealtime windows, multi-drop convenience and vending, on-trade and off-trade wine and spirits delivery, overnight depot trunking and same-day urgent runs - across mixed fleets of vans, multi-temperature rigids and curtain-siders.
TRUSTED BY FOOD & DRINK WHOLESALERS WORLDWIDE
Foodservice, bakery, ambient and wine and spirits wholesalers all share the same problem: too many shapes of work for one tool. eLogii plans every job in a single optimization, from early-morning hospitality to overnight trunking.
Early-morning, service-ready deliveries to kitchens before prep, with live ETA to the head chef.
Pre-mealtime SLA windows for contract foodservice, signed-for and contract-compliant.
Multi-drop ambient, snack and confectionery replenishment to high-frequency retail networks.
Wine, spirits and beer delivery to on-trade and off-trade, with age-verified, signed-for drops.
DC-to-satellite-depot trunks and branch replenishment, planned across multiple shifts.
Forgotten cases, top-ups, returns, kegs, baskets and dollies on the same vehicle.
The reality of running a 50+ vehicle food and drink wholesale fleet on spreadsheets, WhatsApp and tribal knowledge.
Configure your fleet with vehicle compartments and temperature ranges - frozen, chilled and ambient - and eLogii treats them as hard constraints when assigning orders. Frozen ice cream doesn't end up next to ambient pasta, a chilled-only van isn't sent a frozen pallet, and a multi-temp rigid is loaded correctly for its drop sequence. The cold chain stays intact from yard to goods-in.
Every customer carries its own time window and service duration. Restaurants pre-service, schools pre-lunch, care homes pre-mealtime, pubs pre-opening, retail goods-in cut-offs - all enforced as hard constraints by the optimization engine. The plan is service-ready before vehicles leave the DC, and live ETA updates keep chefs, kitchen managers and goods-in teams informed as the route progresses.
Photo POD, electronic signature, temperature reading per drop, age verification for alcohol, crate count, and custom forms for damage, refusal and credit notes. POD PDF generated automatically. Combined with Samsara fridge telematics, the audit trail is built before the driver gets back to the depot.
Overnight DC-to-depot trunking, early-morning multi-drop, same-day urgent additions, and returnable asset collection - all optimized together across multiple depots and shifts. The forgotten Friday-night case for a service, the keg swap before opening, the empty baskets at the school - they go in the plan, not on a WhatsApp group.

eLogii integrates with Samsara for live vehicle and fridge telematics, location and driver behavior - so the plan you build is grounded in what your fleet is actually doing, and the cold chain is monitored end to end. Beyond Samsara, our class-leading REST API and webhooks connect eLogii to any ERP, WMS or e-commerce platform a food and drink wholesaler runs - including Sage X3, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, SAP, Aurora WMS, Manhattan, Mintsoft and Shopify. No middleware. No bespoke connector project. Live in weeks.
Route planning software for food and drink wholesalers automates the daily process of assigning orders to vehicles and drivers, then sequencing the drops to hit every customer time window while respecting temperature, capacity and driver-skill constraints. For foodservice, bakery, ambient and wine and spirits distributors it replaces spreadsheets and tribal knowledge with an optimization engine that plans multi-temperature loads, hospitality service windows, age-verified delivery and returnable asset collection in a single run.
Yes. eLogii is built for 50+ vehicle distribution fleets and is used by food and drink wholesalers including JJ Food Service, Pilgrim Foodservice, Q Catering, BakeMark, Berkmann Wine Cellars and Unisnacks. Multi-depot, multi-day, overnight trunking and same-day dispatch are core to the platform.
Yes. Configure your fleet with vehicle compartments and temperature ranges - frozen, chilled and ambient - and eLogii treats them as hard constraints when assigning orders. A multi-temp rigid is loaded correctly for its sequence, and a chilled-only van is never sent a frozen pallet.
Yes. The driver app supports configurable forms for temperature readings at every drop, plus photo POD, electronic signature, barcode scan, checklists and POD PDF generation. Combined with Samsara fridge telematics, eLogii gives you a complete cold chain audit trail for HACCP and BRC compliance.
Yes. The driver app supports configurable forms for age verification (Challenge 25), with required photo and signature capture. Failure reasons and refusal workflows are configurable, so drivers cannot complete an alcohol drop without the right evidence.
Every customer carries its own time window and service duration. Restaurants pre-service, schools pre-lunch, care homes pre-mealtime, pubs pre-opening - all enforced as hard constraints by the optimization engine. Live ETA updates and branded customer tracking links keep chefs, kitchen managers and goods-in teams informed as the route progresses.
Yes. eLogii supports route reoptimization for live routes, so urgent same-day jobs - a forgotten case for a Friday night service, a top-up to a school - can be slotted into a driver's run with one click and pushed straight to the driver app, with updated ETAs sent automatically to affected customers.
Yes. eLogii's class-leading REST API and webhooks connect to any ERP, WMS or e-commerce platform a food and drink wholesaler runs - including Sage X3, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, SAP, Aurora WMS, Manhattan, Mintsoft and Shopify. We also integrate natively with Samsara for live vehicle and fridge telematics.
Yes. eLogii supports pickups, returns, warehouse operations and reattempt workflows alongside outbound deliveries, all in one optimization. The driver app captures crate counts, returnable-asset numbers and damage notes via configurable forms.
Yes. eLogii supports multi-depot, multi-day and overnight routes, with driver depot and return location setup. DC-to-satellite-depot trunking, branch replenishment and early-morning multi-drop are planned together across multiple sites and shifts.
Most 50+ vehicle food and drink wholesalers are live in weeks, not quarters. The REST API and webhooks remove the need for middleware or a bespoke connector project, and our team supports data migration, integration, driver onboarding and route validation throughout.
eLogii is purpose-built for distribution fleets that need both planned multi-drop and dynamic same-day dispatch, with a modern driver app, branded customer tracking and a class-leading REST API. Compared to legacy planners like Paragon and Descartes, eLogii is faster to deploy, easier to integrate and far more flexible for foodservice operations that need to flex daily by tonnage, drivers and vehicles. Compared to lighter tools like Maxoptra and Podfather, eLogii scales to 50+ vehicle, multi-depot operations with full cold-chain, age-verification and returnable-asset workflows.
