Doudlah Farms FAIR Platform B2B Migration

Overview

During the October 2025 marketing sync, the team identified that Doudlah Farms' FAIR platform account needed a pricing update and that existing business customers on FAIR should be migrated to the new B2B wholesale site. This work runs in parallel with the broader [1] B2B site buildout and is part of a larger effort to consolidate wholesale ordering into a single, purpose-built channel.

Context

Doudlah Farms sells through multiple e-commerce platforms simultaneously — their own WooCommerce-based B2C site, Amazon, Walmart (pending restart), FAIR, and the new B2B wholesale site. FAIR has historically served a mix of retail and business buyers. As the B2B site nears completion, business customers currently ordering through FAIR represent a migration opportunity: moving them to the B2B platform gives Doudlah Farms better pricing control, order history, and invoicing workflows.

Key Decisions

Gift Box Pricing Review

A related pricing issue surfaced during the same discussion: gift box pricing across platforms is inconsistent and potentially counterproductive. Specifically, a single product listing was priced at $19 while a gift box containing two units plus recipe cards was priced at $18 — making the single-unit purchase a worse value proposition for the customer.

Action required: Review and correct gift box pricing across all platforms (website, Amazon, FAIR) to ensure single-unit and bundle pricing are logically structured and do not undercut bundle sales.

"Why would anybody buy one single one for $19 when you can get two in recipe cards in a gift box for $18?"

Action Items

Strategic Note

Consolidating business buyers onto the B2B platform reduces pricing fragmentation and gives Doudlah Farms a single source of truth for wholesale order history — important for sales forecasting and net-30 payment tracking. FAIR may continue to serve retail or discovery-oriented buyers, but business accounts benefit from the invoicing, packing list, and account history features being built into the WooCommerce B2B site.
