## Bakery 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 bakeries actually run

**Too much in the bin, or empty shelves by ten?** Sales and leftovers by product and by day show how much to bake tomorrow, and waste recorded every evening keeps the plan improving.

**Not sure what a cake really costs?** Build each product from its recipe. Purchases update ingredient costs, so every loaf and cake shows its real cost and margin.

**Butter gone at four in the morning?** Ingredients come off stock by recipe as products are made and sold, with low-stock alerts and supplier orders confirmed on WhatsApp.

**Custom orders on smudged slips?** Save the exact wording, design notes, collection date and the deposit paid in M-Pesa, card or cash, then confirm the details with the customer on WhatsApp.

**Wholesale customers paid by memory?** Each shop, café or hotel has an account. Deliveries are invoiced against it, balances build with due dates, and statements go out on WhatsApp.

**A queue out of the door at seven?** Quick buttons for loaves and pastries, with M-Pesa, card or cash on one screen and the change worked out.

## What EliteTeQ gives back to your bakery

**Know what is in every store room** (Stock · warehouses & branches) Live stock of flour, butter, sugar and finished products in every branch, without counting by hand.

**Costs that follow your suppliers** (Purchases · purchase returns) Every ingredient delivery updates your costs, and a bad bag of flour goes back to the supplier and off their bill.

**A morning queue that keeps moving** (Sales · sales returns) Quick buttons on the counter, and a returned item put back or written off properly instead of forgotten.

**Less in the bin every week** (Damages) Leftovers and spoiled trays are recorded every evening, so you see the waste and bake closer to demand.

**Bread where the customers are** (Stock transfers) Send trays or flour from the main bakery to a branch that is running short, with both counts right.

**Counter staff sell, you see the costs** (Roles & permissions) Each person sees what their job needs, and only you see recipe costs, margins and every branch.

**Every void has a name and a time** (Multi-user · audit logs) Each person has a login, so any gap in the drawer or the stock is traced to the shift and the person.

**Orders and statements without phone tag** (WhatsApp) Confirm cake orders with customers, send statements to wholesale accounts and order ingredients from suppliers on WhatsApp.

**Every tray accounted for** (Product movement reports) Baked, sold, delivered on account, transferred or left over: the full story of every product.

**Books that keep up with the ovens** (Accounting) Sales, ingredient purchases and expenses post to your accounts as they happen, with profit by branch and product.

**Bakers and counter staff in one place** (HRM) Staff records, roles and sales by person sit next to your stock and sales, not in a separate file.

**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.
