For Distributors
Inventory management for regional distributors.
Bundles, slabs, and remnants from your supplier base, racked across your warehouses, queryable by stone type, lot, finish, and location. Cross-supplier inventory under one roof. Public records join the marketplace; private inventory stays inside your fabricator network. ERP, accounting, and shipping integrations on Business+.
The proposition
Multi-location single-source-of-truth.
Your business runs on the bridge between supplier inventory and fabricator demand. Honed Earth is the system of record across that bridge — every slab tagged with its quarry-of-origin AND its current warehouse, every inquiry routed to the right location.

The distributor workflow
Receive. Catalog. Distribute.
01
Receive from suppliers
Inbound shipments link back to their origin listings. The supplier's lot data + your warehouse rack assignment writes a single audit row.
02
Catalog across locations
Inventory is queryable by warehouse, by stone type, by lot, by finish. Fabricators search across your full network and see real-time availability per location.
03
Distribute to fabricators
Inquiries route to the right warehouse based on proximity + current stock. The fabricator gets a quote with shipping origin transparent.
What you get
Network legibility, without the spreadsheets.
Cross-location inventory visibility
Every slab carries its origin (quarry / supplier) AND its current warehouse. When a fabricator needs continuity, the system shows lots distributed across your network and routes accordingly.
Connected fabricator network
Your existing fabricator relationships migrate as connection records. Inquiries route to fabricators in your network first, with public marketplace as fallback.

Common questions
What about…
How do you handle inter-warehouse transfers?
Internal transfer is a status-change row in the audit trail with from-warehouse and to-warehouse fields. The lot continuity stays intact across the move.
Can fabricators see across all my locations?
Yes — that's the discovery layer. They see slab + lot + dimensions + warehouse origin. Pricing happens via inquiry, not on the public surface.
What about my supplier rate cards?
Stay private. Honed Earth never exposes supplier-side pricing on public surfaces. Your wholesale margins are not visible to fabricators.
Do I need to migrate existing systems?
No. Honed Earth is the discovery + audit layer. Your existing ERP, accounting, and shipping integrations stay; the API surface is documented for Business+ tiers.
The supply chain, in plain sight
Five categories. One ledger.
Suppliers, distributors, and fabricators manage their inventory of bundles, slabs, and remnants. The union of those inventories is the marketplace — searchable by the trade and by homeowners. From the quarry to the kitchen.
