Built For

Every product type. Every way you sell.

Local Line's inventory tools are built around the complexity of real farm products.

Packages & Variants

One product. Every package size.

Selling the same product in multiple pack sizes, cuts, or formats? Local Line lets you track inventory separately for each variant. Update once at the product level or manage each package independently.

Track stock per package size, cut, or format

Pooled inventory option: one total deducted across variants

Barcode scanning to update incoming stock at the package level

Variable Weight Products

Track by weight. Charge what you pack.

Made for selling meat, poultry, and seafood. Sell by weight seamlessly and accurately with Local Line.

Track inventory by weight — lbs, kg, or oz

Pre-authorize cards at order time, charge at actual weight

Mix tracking and selling units. Track by bird, sell by lb

Works for subscriptions and one-time orders alike

Boxes & Bundles

Bundle products. Track everything inside.

CSA boxes, meat bundles, gift boxes, or meal kits. Local Line’s Box Builder lets you create bundles from your existing products and tracks inventory at both the box level and the individual item level inside.

Track total box inventory and per-item stock inside each box

Sell boxes as one-time purchases or recurring subscriptions

Let customers swap items — choices flow into pick & pack lists

Real-time inventory sync across all connected farms and vendors

Farmers who stopped worrying about_inventory management._

★★★★★

“ The great thing about Local Line is I'm still able to list products by the piece or, for lettuce as an example, by the head. The inventory and pricing for that product are based on the unit, not by weight. I have the flexibility to select which option works best for each product. It's a HUGE lifesaver.”

Karin

Owner, Wolf Creek Family Farm

★★★★★

“ Local Line is a game changer for small-medium Market Gardens. It opens up a bigger customer base at a very affordable cost. Local Line pays for itself and then some every month.”

Steve

Owner, Just Farmin' CSA

★★★★★

“ Better inventory management and a support tool our bookkeeper loves too. We used to track everything in spreadsheets and reconcile manually. Now it just happens. I don't think about it anymore.”

Co-Owner, Whiskey Creek Ranch
