For Distributors

Turn dead inventory into cash without disrupting core sales

Dead stock consumes space, ties up capital, and drags on carrying costs. As a StokTap partner, you gain access to demand capture infrastructure that moves slow-moving inventory without cannibalizing your primary sales channels.

The Distributor Challenge

Dead stock is a universal problem with limited good solutions

Every electrical distributor has dead stock. Products that seemed like good buys. SKUs from discontinued lines. Surplus from projects that did not materialize. Over time, this inventory accumulates and becomes a silent drag on your business.

The Cost of Inaction

  • 12-18% annual carrying cost on dead inventory
  • Warehouse space consumed by non-turning SKUs
  • Capital locked in inventory that could be working elsewhere
  • Eventual write-offs that hit the bottom line

The StokTap Partner Program

As a StokTap fulfillment partner, your dead and slow-moving inventory is published to demand capture channels that find buyers actively searching for electrical products.

  • Automated identification of dead and slow-moving SKUs
  • Product data normalization and enrichment
  • Publication to search, shopping, and SEO channels
  • Order routing back to your fulfillment operation
  • Performance reporting and demand insights
