Serve retail and wholesale customers from the same counter.
Shops, supermarkets and distributors run Sokora as till, stock room and accountant in one - with prices, payments and units that match how goods really move.

The four ways a good shop loses money.
01
Two price lists, one till
The kiosk buying two sachets and the reseller buying twenty cartons stand in the same queue - and the cashier is doing wholesale maths from memory.
02
Power and network cuts stop sales
When the connection drops, cloud tills stop scanning. Customers don't wait for the network to come back.
03
Margins are a guess
Purchase prices move with the exchange rate, but the till only knows selling prices. Nobody can say which products actually earn.
04
The drawer never quite matches
Cash in two currencies, several cashiers, no shift discipline - small differences disappear daily and add up monthly.
Retail speed, wholesale discipline.
One tap between retail and wholesale
Every product carries retail and wholesale prices; regular resellers are flagged so their pricing applies automatically. Units go from sachet to carton to pallet - 35 of them. And it all works offline, because the whole catalogue lives on the device.

Margins from real costs
Stock arrives in batches with actual purchase costs; sales consume them first-in-first-out. Gross profit per product is computed from what you paid - so you learn which fast movers earn nothing, and price accordingly.
Every shilling belongs to a shift
Cashiers clock in before selling and count the drawer at close - expected vs counted, USD and KSh side by side, variance on the record. Honest staff love it; the other kind leaves.
Shift close-out

“Wholesale clients used to negotiate against a notebook. Now the price list is the price list, the stock is the stock, and closing the till takes ten minutes.”
