How It Works

Three Pillars of Retail SFA for Nigeria

Modern trade KAMs work a buyer calendar at Spar, Justrite and Ebeano. General trade reps run van and pre-sales beats through open markets and provision stores. Sell-out flows back from the cloud DMS. One app, one outlet master.

Modern Trade KAM Calendar

KAMs run buyer meetings, listing reviews and planogram sign-off at Spar, Justrite, Ebeano and Prince Ebeano branches on a weekly cycle. Route planning reworks the day when a buyer call in Lagos or Abuja shifts.

General Trade Van + Pre-Sales Beats

Reps cover open markets, wholesalers, provision stores and kiosks across Onitsha, Aba, Kano and Ibadan. Van sales bill on the spot; pre-sales books for next-day delivery. Shelf checks and order capture run on the same store interface.

Naira Sell-Out Dashboards

Analytics roll up by channel, format, city and state. 1Voice AI answers "top Kano wholesalers by sell-out this week" in plain English. Listing-drop and out-of-stock alerts reach KAMs before the next buyer review.

Complete Platform

GPS Attendance, Format Beats, Order Capture, Collections

A full retail SFA stack on one cloud: geo-fenced attendance, format-aware beats across modern and general trade, offline order capture, fintech collections, shelf audits and Naira dashboards for KAMs, ops and finance.

Geo-Fenced GPS Attendance

Reps and KAMs punch attendance with selfie AI and a geo-fence at the outlet or the modern trade branch. It runs offline through grid blackouts and syncs on reconnect. Workforce dashboards split KAM and general trade rep productivity.

Format-Aware Beat Plans

Spar and Ebeano branches sit on a weekly KAM cycle. Wholesalers get a fixed slot; kiosk and provision-store clusters run daily van beats. Outlets are pinned by GPS and landmark on unnamed market streets. Route planning re-optimises the day.

Offline Order Capture + DMS Push

Van and pre-sales reps book orders against the listed range with live stock, scheme and credit status. DMS handoff allocates and dispatches from the distributor, and secondary sell-out feeds the brand view, not just the order book.

Naira Collections + Expense Claims

Reps record cash, POS, bank transfer and Opay, Moniepoint or PalmPay settlement against each invoice, with credit ageing on screen. Field expense claims and leave covering Nigerian public holidays close the loop, timesheets export payroll-ready.
