## Baby shop POS software in Eldoret

Eldoret, in Uasin Gishu County: Kenya's agricultural breadbasket and athletics capital. Trade concentrates in Nairobi and along the Mombasa corridor, with county towns served by traders who restock weekly from the capital. Mobile money reaches further than banking does, so even rural shops settle by phone. Month-end and school-term dates move retail demand more than any promotion.

- **Currency:** KES
- **How customers pay:** M-Pesa (STK Push & Till/Paybill), cards, and bank transfers
- **M-Pesa:** Integrated: STK Push and Till Number
- **Tax:** KRA eTIMS invoices
- **Connectivity:** Keeps selling offline, syncs when back online

## Built for the way baby shops actually sell

**The 6–9 month size always gone?** Every item is tracked by age size and colour, so you reorder the sizes that sell instead of a whole range.

**Formula close to its date?** Batch and expiry dates are captured at delivery, and alerts tell you which tins and jars to sell first.

**Nappies running out unevenly?** Track nappies and wipes by brand, size and pack, with low-stock alerts for each size.

**Gift lists kept on paper?** Save each baby-shower list against the parent, tick items off as guests buy, and share what is left on WhatsApp.

**Tired parents at a slow till?** Scan and take M-Pesa, card or cash on one screen, so a full basket goes through in moments.

**Not sure which ages pay?** Sales and margin by age group, category and brand, so you buy more of what parents come back for.

## What EliteTeQ gives back to your baby shop

**The size they need is on the rail** (Stock · sizes & branches) Live stock by age size and colour in every branch, so a parent never leaves without the size they came for.

**Buy the sizes that sell** (Purchases · purchase returns) Reorder by size from what actually sells, and send damaged or wrong stock back to the supplier.

**Easy exchanges for growing babies** (Sales · sales returns) Swap a babygrow for the next size up without breaking your stock count.

**Nothing past its date on your shelf** (Damages · expiry) Formula and baby food are sold oldest first, and anything that turns is written off with a reason.

**Move sizes to where they sell** (Stock transfers) Send the 6–9 month size from a quiet branch to a busy one, with both counts right.

**Staff sell, you see the numbers** (Roles & permissions) Each person gets just what their job needs, and only you see costs and margins.

**Know who did what, and when** (Multi-user · audit logs) Every sale, price change and stock adjustment is tied to a login and a time.

**Parents come back when you call** (WhatsApp) Share gift lists and tell parents when the next size arrives, on WhatsApp.

**Every item has a full history** (Product movement reports) Received, transferred, sold, exchanged or written off, size by size.

**Books that keep up with your sales** (Accounting) Sales, purchases and expenses post to your accounts as they happen.

**Your team in the same system** (HRM) Staff records and roles sit next to your stock and sales, not in a separate notebook.

**Your business in your pocket, online or off** (Cloud · offline) Check every branch from your phone, and keep selling with M-Pesa when the network drops. Everything syncs when it returns.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What POS system is best for baby shops in Kenya?

The best fit in Kenya is POS software that runs your sizes, expiry dates and gift lists, not just payments. EliteTeQ tracks stock by age size, warns you before formula reaches its date, keeps nappies by brand and size on the shelf, prices in KES and keeps working offline. It integrates M-Pesa (STK Push and Till Number) and produces KRA eTIMS invoices.

### Can I track clothing by age size?

Yes. Every item is tracked by age size and colour, from newborn to school age, in every branch, so you can see which sizes sell out and reorder only those.

### Does it track expiry dates on formula and baby food?

Yes. Batch and expiry dates are captured when stock arrives, alerts tell you which tins and jars to sell first, and anything that expires is written off as a damage.

### Can I manage nappies by brand, size and pack?

Yes. Each brand, size and pack is tracked separately, with low-stock alerts per size and supplier purchases recorded as they arrive.

### Can I keep baby-shower gift lists?

Yes. Save a gift list against the parent’s profile. Guests buy from it at the till, items are ticked off as they sell, and you can share what is left on WhatsApp.

### Can I tell parents when the next size arrives?

Yes. Parents are saved at checkout, so when the next size comes in you can let them know on WhatsApp.

### Can I connect M-Pesa to my POS?

Yes. EliteTeQ integrates M-Pesa STK Push and Till Number, so an M-Pesa payment is matched to the sale it paid for, and cash, card and M-Pesa totals reconcile at closing.

### Can I manage several branches?

Yes. Each branch has its own stock. Move sizes between branches with a transfer, and compare branches side by side.

### Does it work offline?

Yes. The till keeps selling and printing receipts when the internet or power drops, and everything syncs when the connection returns.

Yes. Reports show sales and margin by age group, category, brand and branch.

### Is there support for baby and kids shops in Eldoret?
