POS System Designed for Small Businesses
Before partnering with Blackpaw Innovations, Berrybox relied on a basic POS and manual tracking, which made financial management and stock tracking challenging. The absence of an online sales platform limited their growth potential. Choosing Blackpaw and Odoo provided Berrybox with a scalable, flexible, and consultative technology partner capable of supporting every stage of their operations.
Implementation Journey: Small Business ERP and Ongoing Support
Blackpaw’s tailored Odoo setup transformed Berrybox’s processes, incorporating modules such as POS, Sales, Purchase, Inventory, Website, Accounting, and Expenses. The integration provided Berrybox with:
- Expense and Purchase Tracking: A detailed view of stock flow, from purchasing to final sale, offering unparalleled insight into finances and inventory.
- Real-Time Operations: Improved daily operations, accurate scheduling, seamless online presence, and a better customer experience overall.
In a memorable part of the transition, Blackpaw customized the Odoo interface to replicate Berrybox’s previous POS layout, easing the team into the system and enhancing adoption.
Digital Transformation Experience in Kenya's Business Landscape
Post-implementation, Berrybox experienced significant business growth and operational efficiencies:
- Increased Sales: Sales grew by approximately 25% within the first year, largely due to streamlined operations and an enhanced online presence.
- Improved Speed and Customer Retention: Sales transactions became 60% faster, contributing to better customer retention.
- Enhanced Staff Skills: The team gained proficiency in inventory management and accounting, discovering new insights through Odoo’s robust reporting.
