From the EliteTeQ team
The order sold by piece, metre, and kilo all at once, the fittings that quietly walked off a busy counter, the contractor whose account nobody could quite reconcile. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to hardware and building-supply owners in Nairobi, where the stock is a thousand loose items and your best customers buy on credit.
EliteTeQ POS works across multiple business types in Berlin. If you also manage furniture stores, home decor stores, or electronics stores, the same system handles it all from one dashboard.
EliteTeQ POS delivers measurable business outcomes: accurate inventory management, streamlined operations, improved customer satisfaction, faster transactions, and data-driven insights that increase revenue and reduce costs for hardware stores businesses.
These aren't just promises—they're results our customers experience every day. Let's make them yours.
EliteTeQ POS provides a comprehensive set of general business management features including inventory tracking, sales reporting, customer management, employee management, multi-location support, payment processing, receipt printing, barcode scanning, tax management, discount management, and real-time analytics.

EliteTeQ POS serves hardware stores businesses across Germany — remotely set up, trained, and supported wherever you operate.
Berlin is Germany's capital and largest city.
Germany imposes the strictest till rules in Western Europe: under the Kassensicherungsverordnung every electronic point of sale must be protected by a certified technical security device, records must satisfy GoBD retention rules, and a receipt must be issued for every transaction. Berlin also retains a notably strong cash culture for a major European capital, so cash-drawer discipline matters alongside card acceptance. Tax administration runs through the Finanzamt with federal oversight.
A notably strong cash culture for a major European capital sits alongside modern card acceptance, and the law requires a certified technical security device on every electronic till with GoBD retention. The binding constraint is that a receipt must be issued on every single transaction, without exception.
