Here’s how it works

The First Supply mobile app has a built-in scanner – when you see that stock of a product is running low, scan the First inStock inventory tag with your smartphone. This will open the product tied to the QR code in the First Supply app. From there you can quickly enter a quantity and reorder that product.

Getting started is easy

  1. Contact your First Supply sales rep or local branch.
  2. Provide a list of your frequently ordered items.
  3. We’ll print shelf labels and deliver them to your location.
  4. Attach the labels & scan when it’s time to reorder.
