Built for Distributors,
by Distributors
Our journey began not in a boardroom, but in the trenches of distribution. Our founder, Pete Eardley, faced a common frustration: his existing ERP system simply couldn’t keep up with the real-world demands of his distribution business. He needed a solution that could truly streamline operations, tighten margins, and drastically cut down on manual work. Pete had a bold vision: 10x profits while working half the time.
So, Pete built the solution he needed. He developed software to take complete command of two critical areas: the profit levers inside each order and the data trail left behind from every transaction. In 2003, this hands-on, distributor-first mindset became the bedrock of what is now Cavallo. It’s this deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities within distribution that continues to drive us today, powering tools specifically designed to help distributors work smarter, grow faster, and maximize profit.

Meet the Profit Scientists
We don’t just build tools, we engineer better margins. Cavallo was founded by distributors who were fed up with clunky systems and razor-thin profits. So we got nerdy about it. Really nerdy. We dissect workflows, obsess over order economics, and turn ERP data into a crystal-clear map for profit. Our Science of Profit approach blends gritty operational experience with cutting-edge AI, so you get smarter insights, stronger margins, and a partner who gets just as excited about fixing profitability as you do about growing it.
Profit Is Our Passion. Science Is Our Edge.
Proven. Preferred.
Relied on by Customers.
Distributors don’t just choose Cavallo, they rely on it. Our platforms earn lasting trust by consistently delivering measurable results.
