## Problems We Solve

- **Cables, Drives, and Chargers Walk Out Untracked** — Accessories are your steady margin, but they are small, fast-moving, and easy to lose count of. The mouse display empties, the popular SSD is "out" when a customer wants it, and at stock-take the numbers never match — shrinkage you cannot even pinpoint.
- **A Warranty Claim and No Record to Stand On** — A customer returns with a failed drive insisting it is under warranty. You are flipping through receipts and supplier emails trying to confirm the purchase date and coverage. Without a warranty record tied to the serial, you either eat a claim you should not, or refuse a valid one and lose the customer.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Track accessories in real time with barcode scanning, reorder points, and the option to bundle them onto a hardware sale. *Shrinkage drops, the popular SSD is in stock, and your steady accessory margin stops leaking.*
- Manage suppliers and purchase orders with stock levels and lead times, so reordering is driven by data, not instinct. *You stop tying up cash in slow stock and stop running dry on the lines that actually sell.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Products & Services** — Add hardware, accessories, repair services, and suppliers.
2. **Sell, Repair & Support** — Process sales, repairs, warranties, and technical services.
3. **Track, Optimize & Grow** — Use insights to optimize pricing, inventory, and services.

- **Computer & Hardware Sales POS** — Sell laptops, desktops, servers, and components.
- **Serial Number Tracking** — Track serial numbers, IMEI, and device specifications.
- **Repair & Service Management** — Log diagnostics, repairs, parts, and technician work.

## Running a Business in Kisumu

Kisumu's business landscape is evolving rapidly as Western Kenya's growing middle class drives increased spending on healthcare, retail, and dining. The pharmacy sector is particularly strong, with over 400 registered pharmacies and chemists serving Kisumu and the surrounding Lake Region counties. Supermarkets like Naivas and local chains compete for market share in Kisumu CBD and the Milimani residential area. Agricultural trade remains central to the economy, with fish from Lake Victoria, sugarcane, and rice creating supply chains that connect rural producers to urban retailers. M-Pesa adoption is above 88% for retail transactions, and businesses are increasingly expected to provide digital receipts. KRA eTIMS enforcement in Kisumu has intensified, with tax authorities conducting regular compliance audits on retail and pharmacy businesses. For Kisumu business owners, a POS system that handles pharmaceutical batch tracking, agricultural inventory, and automated tax compliance is essential for sustainable growth.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Kisumu?** EliteTeQ POS prices in KES (KSh) and records M-Pesa, card and cash against the same sale, so computer stores businesses in Kisumu close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to KRA requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Can I manage accessories and peripherals?** Yes, accessories and peripherals such as cables, cases, chargers, mice, keyboards, and storage drives are fully supported within the same inventory system as your main product lines. You can set reorder points for fast-moving accessories, bundle them with computers or laptops as part of a sale, and track their stock levels across multiple locations or display cases. This means your team always knows what is on hand and can upsell confidently without leaving the point-of-sale screen.
- **Is it suitable for IT shops and computer distributors?** Yes, EliteTeQ is built to handle the full range of computer retail and IT reseller operations, from a single-location computer shop to a multi-branch IT distributor managing trade and retail customers simultaneously. The platform supports different customer pricing tiers, purchase order management with supplier lead times, serial-level stock control, and service workflows, covering the distinct needs of both over-the-counter retail and business-to-business supply. Whether you sell walk-in to consumers or fulfil bulk orders for corporate clients, the same system manages your inventory, invoicing, and reporting in one place.
- **Can the POS track serial numbers and IMEI?** Yes, EliteTeQ POS tracks each device individually by serial number or IMEI throughout its entire lifecycle in your store. When a unit is received into inventory, the identifier is recorded against that stock item, so you can pinpoint exactly which physical device was sold, returned, or sent out for repair at any time. This level of traceability is essential for computer stores handling high-value goods, warranty claims, and theft prevention, giving you a complete audit trail from purchase order to customer receipt.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We have sold the wrong identical laptop too.** We know the warranty claim with no record to stand on, and the counter and the repair bench running on separate notebooks. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real computer shops in Nairobi, tracking serials, linking sales to repairs, and chasing accessory shrinkage.
