Built by merchants, for merchants

We got tired of running a drinks business across five disconnected tools. So we built the one we always wanted.

Why B2 exists

The independent beverage merchant sector has been underserved by technology for decades. Merchants cobble together separate tools for their website, their trade portal, their warehouse, their courier bookings, and their accounting — spending more time managing software than managing their business.

B2 was created to change that. We built a unified commerce platform specifically for wine, whisky, and premium drinks merchants — one that understands the nuances of bonded stock, duty deferment, trade pricing, and consumer compliance in a single, coherent system. Our goal is simple: give every merchant, from a five-person independent to a 200-staff regional distributor, the operational infrastructure that was previously only accessible to the largest players in the industry.

Our values

Quality

We build software the same way great merchants build their selections: with care, precision, and an obsessive attention to detail. No shortcuts. No half-measures.

Transparency

Simple pricing. No hidden modules. No lock-in. We tell you exactly what you're getting before you sign anything, and we stick to it.

Craft

We care deeply about the industries we serve. B2 is built by people who love wine and whisky, which means we understand the edge cases that a generic platform never would.
