Gulu is the commercial centre of northern Uganda, supplying surrounding districts and trade heading north toward South Sudan. Mobile money is the everyday way to pay, wholesale and retail often run side by side, and power and network interruptions are part of normal trading.

What EliteTeQ gives back to your beauty supply store
Every part of EliteTeQ, described by what it does for a beauty supply store.
Buy the colours that sell

Reordering without overstocking →Easy swaps for the wrong shade
Exchange a pack for the right colour or length without breaking your stock count.
The sales reports worth running →Nothing past its date on your shelf

What POS system is best for beauty supply stores in Uganda?
The best fit in Uganda is POS software that runs your shades, expiry dates and salon accounts, not just payments. EliteTeQ tracks hair by colour, length and texture, warns you before skincare and relaxers reach their date, gives salons trade prices on account, prices in UGX and keeps working offline. It records mobile money, card and cash against each sale and keeps sales records ready for URA.
Can EliteTeQ track hair by colour, length and texture?
Yes. Each hair product holds its colours, lengths and textures as variants, each with its own stock and price, in every branch.
Can salons buy at trade prices on account?
Yes. Salons and trade customers have their own price level and a credit account with a limit, the till applies the right price for each customer, and statements can go out on WhatsApp.
Does it track expiry dates on skincare and relaxers?
Yes. Batch and expiry dates are captured at delivery, with alerts before stock turns, and anything that expires is written off as a damage.
Can I get alerts before a popular brand sells out?
Yes. Low-stock alerts on fast movers and a reorder list built from real sales help you order in time, or move stock from another branch.
Can I run brand promotions?
Yes. Set the promotion once and it is applied automatically at every till in every branch.
Can customers pay with mobile money?
Yes. EliteTeQ records mobile money, card and cash against each sale, so every payment method is accounted for and reconciles at closing.
Can I run more than one shop?
Yes. Each branch keeps its own stock, transfers are confirmed on arrival, and you see everything from one account.
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.
Can I see which brands make the most money?
Yes. Reports show sales and margin by brand, category, colour and customer type, retail or trade, for every branch.
