Your fcB2B 832 catalog, automated and in every partner’s hands

For flooring manufacturers and distributors, the hardest and most expensive part of fcB2B is getting the 832 price catalog automated and out to partners. PIMento™ creates it from your own data and makes it available to your retailers, installers and partners, who simply subscribe.

    PIMento Flow uses AI to map your data to the fcB2B 832 price catalog and generates it automatically, every time a price or product changes.

Why it matters

What being fcB2B-ready does for your business

Say yes to every partner

When a retailer or installer asks for your 832, they subscribe and start receiving it. No months-long integration per partner.

Catalogs that stay current

When a price or product changes in your ERP, a fresh 832 goes out automatically, so partners never sell from an old price list.

No more spreadsheets

Stop building, emailing and fixing price sheets by hand. Every delivery is logged, so you know who has what.

  • Your reps see every order and know who to call
  • One catalog behind fcB2B, your customer portal and your sales team
