A camera-store-ready POS system designed for photography and video retailers in Maradi, helping operators sell, rent, and service equipment accurately from one dashboard.

## Problems We Solve

- **A Customer Wants a Specific Body, Mount, and Lens Combo — and You're Guessing Stock** — Bodies, lenses, mounts, and adapters all have to match, and a photographer knows exactly what they want. Tracked by eye, you cannot confirm the exact model is in stock, you quote the wrong compatible lens, and a high-value sale slips to the shop that could answer faster.
- **Thousands of Dollars Per Item and No Tight Control** — A single body or lens can be worth a month's rent. Without serial-level tracking and audit trails, expensive gear goes missing, you cannot prove what was on the shelf, and shrinkage on high-value items quietly wipes out the margin on dozens of smaller sales.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Tie warranty start, duration, and coverage to each item's serial, with expiry alerts. *You confirm or deny any claim in seconds, and reach out before coverage lapses to offer an upgrade.*
- Track gear by model, mount, and spec as variants, with live stock and compatibility at your fingertips. *You confirm the exact body and lens instantly, quote right, and keep the high-value sale in the shop.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Products, Rentals & Services** — Add camera gear, variants, rental rates, and services.
2. **Sell, Rent & Service** — Process sales, rentals, repairs, and warranty jobs.
3. **Track, Optimize & Grow** — Use insights to manage inventory, pricing, and utilization.

## Running a Business in Maradi

Maradi sits in Maradi Region and is Niger's principal commercial and trading city.

Maradi is Niger's main commercial city, closely tied to trade with northern Nigeria in agricultural produce and manufactured goods. Wholesale lots, supplier credit and cross-border pricing are core to how businesses operate here, and trade volumes fluctuate with harvest and currency movements across the border.

The city's commerce is effectively an extension of the northern Nigerian trade network, with produce moving south and manufactured goods coming north. The binding constraint is supplier credit and lot pricing that survive currency movement across the border.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Maradi?** EliteTeQ POS prices in XOF (CFA) and records Airtel Money, card and cash against the same sale, so camera stores businesses in Maradi close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to DGI requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Is EliteTeQ POS suitable for camera stores businesses in Maradi?** Yes. Maradi sits in Maradi Region, and a POS here has to track cross-border wholesale lots and supplier credit as rates move. EliteTeQ POS is built for exactly that — XOF pricing, Airtel Money recorded against each sale, DGI-ready tax invoicing, and full offline operation so trading continues when power or network does not.
- **Can I manage camera repairs and sensor cleaning?** Yes, repair, servicing, and sensor cleaning job tracking is included in the platform. Each job can be logged as a service order with the customer's details, the specific equipment, the type of work required, and any parts used, so technicians and front-of-house staff always know the current status of every item in for service. Completed jobs are tied back to the item's serial number history, and invoicing for labor and parts is generated directly from the service record when the equipment is ready for collection.
- **Can I track warranties per item?** Yes, warranty information is linked directly to each serial-numbered item in your inventory. When a camera or lens is sold, you can record the warranty start date, duration, and coverage terms against that specific unit, so staff can instantly confirm coverage during a customer inquiry or return without searching through paper records. Warranty expiry alerts can also help you proactively reach out to customers whose coverage is approaching its end, creating an opportunity to offer extended protection or a trade-in upgrade.
- **Can the POS track camera and lens serial numbers?** Yes, every camera body and lens in your inventory can be tracked individually by serial number. When a unit is received, sold, rented, or returned, its serial number is logged against that transaction, giving you a complete history of where each item has been and who handled it. This level of traceability is especially valuable for high-value equipment, making it straightforward to verify authenticity, handle warranty claims, and resolve disputes over condition.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know one lens can be worth a month's rent.** We know the exact body-and-mount combo you cannot confirm in stock, the rental lens that comes back with fungus, and the warranty claim on a $2,000 body with no record. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real camera and photography retailers in Nairobi, tracking serials, running rentals with deposits, and logging repairs.
