MakanaLine is an ASI- and SAGE-listed supplier of drinkware, bags, blankets, beverage insulators and USA-made products. We built and run the wholesale site their distributors order from.
“Tony has been great working with over the years. One of the things I appreciate most is that everything just works. On the rare occasion something does come up, he is always quick to figure it out and get it taken care of. It’s nice having someone we can count on without having to worry about the website.”
MakanaLine sells through promotional products distributors, and new items often come in many colors. Distributors need to find an item fast, see what it costs at their account’s pricing, and get artwork specs and terms without a phone call.
Instead of starting from scratch, we built MakanaLine on the same platform that runs Liqui-Mark’s distributor site. MakanaLine got a proven, tested base on day one, and improvements to the shared platform can reach both.
A wholesale site for distributors and the back office behind it.
In October 2026 we moved the site onto new servers, retired an outdated database and an old shared mail relay, and carried the past inquiries over so nothing was left behind. In November 2026 it moved again, onto Makana Line’s own new server.
How the move went
Product categories, search, specials, videos, artwork specs and ordering terms, all managed by MakanaLine’s team from the admin.
Distributors see the pricing that applies to their account.
The contact form saves every message first, then emails the team, and records whether that email went out. The admin has an Inquiries tab with search, archive and CSV export. In November 2026 we added quiet bot checks, so spam is set aside instead of emailed.
We host it, watch it and fix it. The owner texts us when something needs to change.
For $300 we go through your whole site and send a short, prioritized list of what to fix within 5 business days. Hand it to your own web person or have us do it.
