The problem is that you are not actually setting the fields on task2.
  
public PageReference Save() {
        odd.Distributor__c=acc.Id;
        odd.Retailer__c=ret.id;
        insert odd;

        List<Task> tasks = new List<Task>();

        tasks.add(new Task(
            Subject = 'Order/Visit',
            Status__c = 'Order Taken',
            Whatid = ret.id,
            Date__c = odd.Order_Date__c,
            Comments__c = ret.Comments__c,
            Country__c = ret.Billing_Country__c,
            State__c =  ret.Billing_State__c,
            City__c = ret.Billing_City__c,
            Street__c = ret.Billing_Street__c,
            Zip_Postal_Code__c = ret.Billing_Zip_Postal_Code__c,
            Province__c = ret.Billing_Province__c
        ));

        tasks.add(new Task(
            Subject = 'Order/Visit',
            Status__c = 'Order Taken',
            Whatid = acc.Id,
            Date__c = odd.Order_Date__c,
            Comments__c = ret.Comments__c,
            Country__c = ret.Billing_Country__c,
            State__c =  ret.Billing_State__c,
            City__c = ret.Billing_City__c,
            Street__c = ret.Billing_Street__c,
            Zip_Postal_Code__c = ret.Billing_Zip_Postal_Code__c,
            Province__c = ret.Billing_Province__c
        ));

        insert tasks;
}

This code is not ideal but it will do what you want.  What you should really have is a utility method that takes in a subject, status, Id, an odd and a ret (whatever those are) and generates a task.  That would turn your code into this.
  
public class TaskUtils {
    public static Task createTask(String subject, String status, Id id, Odd__c odd, Ret__c ret) {
        return new Task(
            Subject = subject
            Status__c = status,
            Whatid = id,
            Date__c = odd.Order_Date__c,
            Comments__c = ret.Comments__c,
            Country__c = ret.Billing_Country__c,
            State__c =  ret.Billing_State__c,
            City__c = ret.Billing_City__c,
            Street__c = ret.Billing_Street__c,
            Zip_Postal_Code__c = ret.Billing_Zip_Postal_Code__c,
            Province__c = ret.Billing_Province__c
        );
    }
}
  
public PageReference Save() {
        odd.Distributor__c=acc.Id;
        odd.Retailer__c=ret.id;
        insert odd;

        List<Task> tasks = new List<Task>{
            TaskUtils.createTask('Order/Visit', 'Order Taken', ret.Id, odd, ret),
            TaskUtils.createTask('Order/Visit', 'Order Taken', acc.Id, odd, ret)
        };

        insert tasks;
}

You'll need to update Odd__c and Ret__c to be whatever they really are.
