Managing a produce or rural supply store requires a balance of traditional service and modern efficiency. From handling bulk goods to managing seasonal fluctuations, the right technology can simplify your daily tasks. Specialised point of sale software allows you to move beyond basic transactions and focus on growing a more profitable business.

Tower Systems offers Aussie made and supported POS software for produce / rural supply / stockfeed businesses.

Versatile Sales Tools for Rural Environments

Rural retail often happens away from the main counter. Whether you are at a local market, a field day, or making a delivery from the back of a truck, mobility is essential. Modern systems offer tools like Retailer Roam, which allow you to process sales and manage inventory on the go. These tools are designed to work even when an internet connection is unreliable, ensuring you never miss a sale in remote locations.

Managing Bulk and Varied Inventory

Produce stores handle items that do not always fit into a standard barcode format. The software supports selling by weight, measure, or fraction, which is vital for bulk feed, grain, or fertilisers. You can also create bundled packs, allowing you to sell related items together as a single unit. This simplifies the checkout process and encourages customers to purchase everything they need for a project in one go.

Streamlining Supplier and Customer Management

Manual data entry is a significant time sink for busy retailers. By integrating with suppliers through electronic invoicing, you can import stock arrivals directly into your system. This reduces errors and ensures your pricing is always up to date.

For your customers, the system manages quotes, special orders, and accounts with professional ease. You can track a special order from the initial request through to the customer notification, ensuring a high level of service. For larger projects, the ability to generate delivery notes and picking slips helps your team stay organised in the warehouse.

Enhancing Business Intelligence

Understanding your sales patterns is the key to better inventory decisions. The software provides detailed reporting that highlights your best-performing categories and identifies slow-moving stock. Integration with accounting platforms like Xero and e-commerce sites like Shopify ensures that your financial and online data remains consistent without double handling.

Personalised Support and Training

Adopting new technology is a significant step, and having access to local support makes the transition smoother. The system is backed by a help desk available six days a week, offering human-to-human assistance. This ensures that if you have a question about a complex customer quote or a seasonal update, you can speak with someone who understands the specific needs of an independent Australian produce retailer. Using these tools, you can reduce administrative burdens and spend more time serving your community.
