Built for Scale
Turning Distribution Complexity into Advantage

How a Leading FMCG Brand Modernized Dealer Operations with AI-Powered Distribution Management

A leading snacks manufacturer partnered with Myridius to modernize a legacy Dealer & Distributor Management System that slowed onboarding, disrupting sales, and limiting visibility at scale. By implementing an AI-powered DDMS on Salesforce Consumer Goods Cloud—enhanced with Agentforce and offline-first mobility—the company transformed dealer onboarding and field execution into a resilient, scalable, and insight-driven operation across 12 states.

Preparing Operations for the Next Phase of Growth 

The client is a market-leading FMCG snacks brand with a vast distribution footprint operating across 12 states, managing relationships with 1,200+ distributors, and serving over 450,000 retailers. 

As the business expanded, dealer onboarding, order execution, and sales visibility became increasingly complex. What once worked at smaller scale manual applications, disconnected systems, and legacy infrastructure began to slow the organization down. 

Sales and Operations teams spent excessive time managing exceptions instead of driving growth. Dealers lacked transparency into application status and performance. Leadership lacked a unified view of demand, supply, and sales execution.

The challenge wasn’t just efficiency…it was resilience, visibility, and scalability.

From Operational Friction to Measurable Business Impact 

Rather than viewing this engagement as a simple system replacement, the transformation is best understood by examining what fundamentally changed.

Why Myridius? More Than a Technology Upgrade 

The client needed more than a new platform. They needed a partner who understood how distribution complexity shows up in the real world and how to simplify it without introducing risk. 

Myridius brought

  • Deep consumer goods and distribution domain expertise 

  • An AI-first, agentic approach grounded in real workflows 

  • Proven Salesforce Consumer Goods Cloud architecture 

  • A collaborative, outcome-driven delivery model 

Rather than digitizing broken processes, Myridius rethought dealer operations end-to-end. 

A Distribution Platform Built for Scale, Resilience & Insight 

Myridius designed and implemented a modern Dealer & Distributor Management System using Salesforce as the core platform, reinforced with AI and offline-first capabilities. 

Myridius Delivered

Dealer portal & offline
mobile app

A self-service dealer portal built on Experience Cloud, paired with an offline-capable mobile app that ensures uninterrupted field execution even in low-connectivity regions. 

End-to-End Sales Operations Digitization

Presales, van sales, warehouse sales, and inventory movement were unified into a single operational flow, eliminating silos & manual handoffs.

Automated Documentation & Invoicing

Invoice generation and supporting documentation were automated to remove bottlenecks and improve accuracy.

Agentforce AI Assistant

An AI-powered assistant provides dealers with instant answers on onboarding status and process requirements reducing dependency on support teams and improving partner experience.

Real-Time Visibility & Reporting

Dashboards provide instant insight into paid, unpaid, and pending jobs, with full drill-down visibility into deposits, back-charges, and adjustments.

Automation Without Losing Control

When a dealer submits an onboarding application, Agentforce surfaces relevant requirements and knowledge in real time. Salesforce workflows automate verification and approvals. Dealers track progress transparently through the portal or AI assistant. Field teams continue operating offline when needed, syncing automatically when connectivity returns. 

Every interaction is tracked. 
Every decision is visible. 

Technical Debt Paralysis
Years of accumulated complexity made even minor updates risky and time-consuming 

Performance Degradation
Page load times suffered during high-traffic events, directly impacting user experience and conversion rates

Scalability Ceiling
Traffic spikes caused system slowdowns despite significant infrastructure investment

Development Bottleneck
Creating new features or components takes days per element. This throttled their marketing agility, limiting the ability to maintain reusable components and slowing parallel development

Accessibility Gaps
Creating new features or components takes days per element. This throttled their marketing agility, limiting the ability to maintain 
reusable components and slowing parallel development

Continuous feedback loops improved AI output quality over time.
Measurable Outcomes
Clear metrics tracked efficiency gains and business impact across high-traffic digital platforms supported by generative AI workflows.
Hybrid Expertise
Human architects guided strategy while AI accelerated execution.
Strategic AI Integration
AI wasn't bolted on—it was architected into the development workflow from day one.

 

Looking Forward
The Competitive Advantage
This transformation wasn't just about migrating technology—it was about establishing a new operating model where -

Speed becomes a strategic weapon 
Quality scales automatically 
Innovation capacity multiplies 
Technical debt stops accumulating 
Developer talent focuses on differentiation 

As AI-assisted development matures, the efficiency gains compound, creating widening competitive moats for organizations that embrace this methodology early.

Operational Confidence, Built Into Distribution

This wasn’t just a DDMS upgrade. It was a shift from manual dependency to operational confidence at scale.

In high-volume consumer goods environments, inefficiencies in dealer operations quietly erode margins and slow growth. This case shows how modernizing distribution management when done with the right architecture and AI controls can become a strategic advantage. 

If your organization is managing dealer onboarding, field execution, or distribution visibility across a growing network, Myridius can help you simplify, scale & stay in control.
