POS for Kenyan supermarkets and mini-marts
Queues on a Friday evening, distributors delivering every day and thin margins on unga, sugar and cooking oil: a Kenyan supermarket needs a till that is fast and stock that is right. Scan the barcode or search by name, take M-Pesa, cash or a split, and print or share the receipt with your KRA PIN.
Every delivery from your distributors is recorded with its cost, so you know your margin on every item and what you owe each supplier. Close each till with a cash count and see shortages at once.

- ✓M-Pesa, cash and card, or a split

How a day runs with the supermarket POS
Each cashier opens a shift with a float, scans and sells all day, and closes with a cash count; any shortage shows at once. Deliveries are received with their cost and the supplier's invoice, so stock and what you owe are right before the next customer walks in. The owner sees sales, profit and M-Pesa against cash from anywhere, branch by branch.
What to look for in a supermarket POS in Kenya
Speed at the till, M-Pesa codes recorded with each sale, your KRA PIN and VAT on receipts, stock you can trust across branches, and reports that show profit, not just sales. Afritelligence gives you all of these without a POS machine to buy.
