Build the Shop, Stockist Portal and Batch Records for Your Food Brand with AI
With Mythex a small-batch food brand can build its online shop for jars and gift sets, a trade portal where delis reorder by the case, stock tracked by batch code and best-before date, and a stockist finder for customers. Describe your products and channels in chat, check the live preview, and publish when it is right.
What a small-batch food brand needs from software
You make a batch of chili jam in a rented kitchen on Tuesday, it gets a batch code and a best-before date, and it has to reach three places: your own web shop, the Saturday market and a dozen delis and farm shops. The delis reorder by email, and you answer without knowing how many cases are left or which batch they would get. In November everything turns into gift sets with Christmas cut-off dates. The useful system ties each jar back to its batch, shows stock before you promise it, and makes allergen information impossible to leave off a product page.
- Stock by batch code and best-before date
- Ingredients, jars, lids and labels tracked separately
- Stockist reorders against real stock
- Allergens and ingredients on every product
- Gift sets with last order dates
- Batch codes on wholesale invoices for traceability
What you can build for specialty food brands
A shop for jars, bottles and gift boxes
Each product shows ingredients, allergens, heat level or flavor notes and a serving idea. Bundles and gift sets take a personal note, subscriptions suit regular buyers, and Christmas last-order dates sit at the top of the gift page. Card payment and shipping labels come from services you connect with your own account.
Build an online shop for my hot sauce brand with product pages showing ingredients, allergens, heat level and serving ideas, gift sets with a gift note field, a three-bottle bundle and a monthly subscription. Show Christmas last order dates on the gift page.
A trade portal where stockists reorder by the case
Delis and farm shops log in, see trade prices and current availability, and order by the case. Show the best-before date of the batch they would receive, because shelf life is what shop owners ask about. Order history, invoices and point-of-sale files live in the same place.
Make a stockist portal for my chutney brand. Shops log in to see trade prices per case, live stock, and the best-before date of the batch they will receive. They place reorders, see past orders and invoices, and download shelf talkers.
Stock you can trace to a batch
Finished stock is recorded by product, batch code and best-before date, with jars, lids and labels as their own items so you know whether you can actually make the next batch. Stock at a co-packer or warehouse is a separate location, and orders pick the earliest best-before first.
Create an inventory app for my food brand. Track finished stock by product, batch code and best-before date across my kitchen and a warehouse, plus ingredients and packaging like jars, lids and labels with reorder levels. Orders should pick the earliest best-before date first.
Wholesale invoices that carry the batch code
Put batch codes and best-before dates on each stockist invoice, apply payment terms and minimum order values, and issue credit notes for jars broken in transit. If a label error ever forces a recall, you can see which shops received that batch in seconds.
Build wholesale invoicing for my specialty food brand with batch codes and best-before dates on each line, 30-day terms, a minimum order value, pro forma invoices for new stockists and credit notes for damaged deliveries.
A stockist finder that stays honest
A map and town search of shops that carry your products, online retailers and the markets you attend. Drive it from real orders, so a farm shop that stopped ordering drops off before a customer drives there.
Make a stockist finder for my brand with a map and search by town, listing shops, online retailers and markets I attend, and flag stockists with no order in 90 days for removal.
Allergens and labels come first
Before the shop looks good, make sure the product data is right: full ingredient list, allergens highlighted, weight, storage instructions and a best-before format that matches the jar. Ask Mythex to make the allergen field required, so a new flavor cannot be published without it. Labeling rules differ by country, so check what applies to you rather than relying on the app to know.
- Allergen field required on every product
- Ingredients exactly as on the label
- Storage and after-opening instructions
Spot stockists going quiet
Record how often each deli usually reorders. When one that ordered every five weeks has not ordered in ten, it shows on a list. Often the product moved to a bad shelf or a new manager does not know you, and one phone call fixes what a discount never would.
Questions
Can I sell to shops and to the public from the same app?
Yes. Ask for a public shop and a separate trade login with case prices, so both draw from the same stock and batches.
Can it track batch codes and best-before dates?
Yes. Each batch is recorded with its code and date, orders deduct from the earliest batch first, and you can list which customers and stockists received a given batch.
Can I take payments and print shipping labels?
Payments and shipping labels work through providers you connect with your own account. Mythex builds the shop and order screens around them.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You describe your products and how you sell, and change anything by chatting. The code editor is optional.
Is it free to start?
Yes. The Free plan needs no card and lets you build and publish. Pro is $25 a month and adds a custom domain, code editing, export and more credits.
