What We Do
Tactiq, formerly DSD Partners, is on a mission to eliminate the headaches and hassles of retail by streamlining the direct store delivery distribution model.
Retailers, manufacturers, and distributors deal with poor communication, out-of-stocks, invoicing errors, and price book challenges. These problems hurt sales, profits, and customer loyalty.
At Tactiq, we believe DSD can be done better - and consumers deserve that.
We get it. Inefficiencies cause many challenges in business. The last thing you want is to lose money or customers because of poor direct store delivery systems and processes.
That’s why for over two decades, Tactiq has been developing technologies, acquiring like-minded partners and providing services that maximize operational efficiencies.
We work with leading manufacturers, distributors, and small-and-large-format retailers across the country, reaching over 75,000+ stores.
With Tactiq, you don’t have to worry about empty shelves, error-riddled invoices, inconsistent price books, slow processing, or payment errors. You’ll keep your customers happy, your DSD partners satisfied, and your business growing.
Win retail with smart technology, simplified services, and profitable DSD.
