Baraka General Shop located in Nyahururu. Despite its compact physical size, the shop maintains an extensive inventory of over 200 unique product lines, ranging from fast moving consumer goods you find in a normal shop to hardware supplies and household cereals.

The Challenge

1. The owner is frequently away from the premises and had no way to monitor sales or shop performance.
2. It was impossible to keep track of stock levels across 200+ different items, leading to a "blind" operation where the owner didn't know what stock was in the shop.
3. Perishable goods like milk were expiring on the shelves unnoticed because there was no way to track how long items had been in inventory.

The Solution

1. A comprehensive count of all 200+ items was conducted and registered into the system.
2. Every item was catalogued to ensure that even the smallest items are easily searchable.
3. A new feature was added to the system to track exactly how many days an item has been on the shelf.

The Outcome

1. The owner can now track the shop’s progress and daily sales from any location, providing total peace of mind.
2. The system highlights aging stock, allowing the shopkeeper to prioritize selling items before they go to waste.
3. There is now a clear, digital record of the entire inventory, ensuring that nothing is lost or forgotten on the shelves.
