BANK FEEDS
Every till, branch and channel keeping its own books.
Retailers and distributors in East Africa usually run a POS that doesn't talk to the accounts, branches that each guess their own stock, and a webshop and wholesale arm bolted on the side. Counts drift, M-Pesa takes a day to reconcile, and nobody trusts the margin. Odoo runs POS, e-commerce, every branch and the wholesale price list off one stock ledger and one general ledger.

Odoo's Best Partner for Africa, 2023–2025
Retailers and distributors running on Odoo with us.
Single shops to multi-branch chains with a wholesale arm.
How it looks in practice
Two operators, anonymised.
A fashion chain with one stock figure.
A multi-branch clothing retailer ran each shop on a separate till and a webshop that never agreed with the floor. We put every branch and the webshop on one Odoo stock ledger, wired M-Pesa to the POS, and gave head office a live view of stock and margin per branch.
- POS across branches on shared stock
- Webshop on the same catalogue
- M-Pesa reconciliation
A distributor selling off the van and online.
An FMCG distributor managed trade customers on spreadsheets and reconciled van sales by hand. We set up wholesale price tiers, delivery routes and van-sales capture, plus a B2B portal where trade customers reorder, all posting to one ledger.
- Wholesale price tiers
- Van sales & delivery routes
- B2B reorder portal
FAQ
Retail questions.
The five we get asked on almost every retail and wholesale call.
Ask us something else →01 Does the POS work offline and take M-Pesa?
Yes. Odoo POS keeps selling when the connection drops and syncs when it returns, and we wire M-Pesa so till and paybill payments reconcile against the session automatically.
02 Can it show stock across all my branches?
Yes. Each branch is its own warehouse with its own stock and valuation, transfers move goods between them, and head office sees the whole picture on one database.
03 Does it handle wholesale price tiers and van sales?
Yes. Customer price lists give wholesale and retail tiers off the same catalogue, and we set up van-sales and delivery routes for distributors, with a B2B portal where trade customers reorder themselves.
04 Can the webshop share stock with the shops?
Yes. The Odoo webshop runs on the same product catalogue and stock ledger as the POS, so online and in-store sell from one source of truth and one general ledger.
05 Does it put eTIMS on POS receipts and invoices?
Yes. We connect Odoo to KRA eTIMS so receipts and invoices are transmitted to the tax authority, and to URA EFRIS and RRA EBM in the neighbouring markets.
