A POS system designed specifically for bookshops and bookstores in Malabo, helping stores simplify ISBN lookup, control large book catalogs, manage pricing across editions, and gain clear visibility into daily sales and inventory performance. ## Problems We Solve - **Thousands of Titles and No Real Sense of What's Moving** — New releases, backlist, and slow stock all sit on the same shelves. Without proper tracking you reorder by gut, the bestseller runs out the week everyone wants it, and cash stays tied up in titles that have not sold in months. - **A Customer Asks "Do You Have It?" and You Walk the Shelves to Find Out** — Someone wants a specific title and you are scanning the spines by hand, hoping it is in stock and shelved right. With tens of thousands of titles, a book that is technically in the shop but cannot be found is a lost sale and a customer sent to order online instead. ## How EliteTeQ Solves It - Track every title in real time with sell-through and low-stock alerts on fast movers. *You reorder the bestsellers before they run dry and stop tying up cash in titles that do not sell.* - Scan or search by ISBN for instant stock and shelf-location lookup across the whole catalogue. *You answer "do you have it?" in seconds, find the copy, and keep the sale in the shop.* ## How It Works 1. **Set Up Your Bookshop** — Import your book catalog, configure pricing for new and used books, and enable ISBN scanning. 2. **Train Your Staff** — Minimal training required. Staff can start selling books immediately. 3. **Sell More Books** — Use insights to manage inventory, track customer preferences, and grow sales. ## Features - **ISBN Scanning** — Fast ISBN barcode scanning with automatic book information lookup. - **Book Inventory Management** — Track thousands of titles with real-time stock updates. - **Customer Database** — Store purchase history and reading preferences for recommendations. - **Special Orders & Pre-Orders** — Manage customer requests and notify them when books arrive. ## Running a Business in Malabo Malabo sits in Bioko Norte Province and is Equatorial Guinea's capital, on the island of Bioko.

Business is conducted in Spanish, which makes Spanish-language receipts and product naming a practical requirement. Pricing is in CFA francs and the formal retail sector is relatively small but oil-linked and higher-value. Every restock depends on sea or air freight to the island, and trade is conducted in Spanish. The formal sector is small but oil-linked and higher-value. The binding constraint is stockouts between shipments, which no amount of local effort can fix after the fact. ## Frequently Asked Questions - **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Malabo?** EliteTeQ POS prices in XAF (FCFA) and records mobile payments, card and cash against the same sale, so bookshops businesses in Malabo close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three.
