A POS system designed for gift shops in Port-au-Prince, helping retailers manage wide product variety, seasonal peaks, and personalized orders while maintaining accurate stock and fast checkout from a single dashboard.

## Problems We Solve

- **Hundreds of One-Off Items No Basic Till Can Track** — Gift shops carry a constantly changing wall of unique, seasonal, one-off pieces, and a till built for repeat SKUs simply cannot keep up. New stock goes in untracked, you lose sight of what is actually selling, and the count is fiction by the end of a busy week.
- **The Festive Rush Overwhelms the Counter** — Christmas, Valentine's, Mother's Day — your whole year is made in a few intense weeks, and a slow till during the festive crush means queues, abandoned baskets, and the sales you wait all year for slipping out the door.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Flexible product management handles unique, seasonal, and one-off items, with stock that deducts on every sale so the count matches the wall. *You always know what is selling and what you have, even across a fast-changing range.*
- Fast product search, barcode scanning, and instant MonCash, card, and cash keep the counter moving through the festive crush. *You serve far more customers in your make-or-break weeks instead of losing them to the queue.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Your Gift Catalog** — Add gift items, pricing, wrapping options, and categories.
2. **Sell & Personalize** — Process sales, add messages, wrapping, and bundles at checkout.
3. **Track, Analyze & Grow** — Monitor trends and optimize stock for future seasons.

## Features

- **Flexible & Seasonal Catalog** — Manage unique, seasonal, one-off, and bundled gift items with stock that deducts on every sale, so the count matches the wall through a busy week.
- **Personalisation Notes** — Capture names, messages, and customisation against each order — no sticky notes — so the workshop gets every engraving and card right the first time.
- **Gift Wrap & Add-Ons** — Wrapping, cards, ribbons, and bundles are one-tap add-ons that price correctly every time, so the easy extras stop being given away free.
- **Inventory & Seasonal Reports** — Track stock in real time and see seasonal sell-through by range, so you buy next festive season on evidence instead of last year's guess.

## Running a Business in Port-au-Prince

Port-au-Prince sits in Ouest Department and is Haiti's capital and commercial centre.

Port-au-Prince trades in two currencies at once — gourdes and US dollars — against an exchange rate that can shift materially within a single week, so the rate a business prices at in the morning may not be the rate that protects its margin by evening. Commerce is conducted in Haitian Creole and French, and is geographically split between the lower city near the port and the higher commercial districts around Pétion-Ville, which differ sharply in basket size. Electricity and connectivity both fail routinely, so a till that stops when the power does simply stops the business.

Commerce splits between the lower city near the port and the higher commercial districts around Pétion-Ville, which differ sharply in basket size, and trade runs in Haitian Creole and French. The binding constraint is a gourde–dollar rate that can move materially within a week, so the rate you priced at this morning may not protect your margin tonight.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Port-au-Prince?** EliteTeQ POS prices in HTG (G) and records MonCash, card and cash against the same sale, so gift shops businesses in Port-au-Prince close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We have seen a misspelled name ruin a gift too.** The festive rush that buries the counter, the engraving that went out spelled wrong, the wrapping done for free in the crush. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to gift shop owners in Nairobi, where the year is made in a few intense weeks and a personalised gift has to be perfect.
