Retail & Modern Trade Training & Learning Cloud Software for Omani Business

A short module maps each modern-trade account: buyer and category-manager roles, contact protocol, listing and shelf-space terms, and the review calendar for chains such as Lulu Hypermarket, Carrefour, and Sultan Center. Key account managers clear a quick assessment before booking the first meeting at a head office in Muscat, within Oman's Sunday-to-Thursday business week, so nobody walks in cold.

Yes. Separate tracks are built for each channel. Modern-trade tracks cover chain negotiation and planogram standards, while general-trade tracks cover baqalas and mini-markets, plus how to work distributors and wholesalers supplying that channel across Muscat, the Batinah coast, and beyond. Reps train only on the channel they cover.

A dedicated module breaks down chain listing terms, shelf and gondola-end costs, and trade-spend bands in OMR, along with the internal approval matrix. Key account managers learn the sign-off flow and invoicing practices aligned with Oman's upcoming OTA e-invoicing rollout before they commit any budget on a range review, so spend is never approved by someone who has not passed the module.

Photo-based standards cover planogram compliance, share of shelf, POSM placement, price-tag accuracy, and batch and expiry checks on the shelf. Merchandisers pass an image quiz before they are cleared to audit a store, whether that is a hypermarket in Muscat or a baqala in Sohar, so audits read the same across every outlet.

Promoters record their pitch on the app in Arabic, English, or another language common among Oman's expatriate workforce, matched to the shopper base of their location. Trainers score tone, product accuracy, and shopper handling. Failed attempts trigger refresher content. Only certified promoters are assigned to a shop floor or a market activation shift.

Demo flow modules carry step-by-step videos: stand setup, sampling rules, taking payment by cash, card, or a digital wallet, and returns handling. Demo specialists pass the flow quiz before working a weekend activation at a modern-trade outlet or a baqala-led market event.

Yes. Briefings for Ramadan, Eid, the Khareef season in Dhofar, and back-to-school deploy as short modules ahead of each campaign. Content covers the SKU mix, gift and bundle packs, price points, and promoter scripts for both chains and baqalas. A quiz pass confirms every promoter and merchandiser is ready before the demand window opens.

Yes. The platform is built mobile-first for a country whose commercial geography spans Muscat, the Batinah coast, the interior around Nizwa, the eastern coast at Sur, and Dhofar in the south. Merchandisers download modules over Wi-Fi at the branch or depot, then study while moving between outlets. Videos run under three minutes and quizzes under two, so they finish between visits, with attempts syncing once a connection is available, useful on the odd remote route through the interior.

Certification status feeds the SFA app. An uncertified promoter cannot be rostered to a chain or a new product launch, and an uncertified key account manager cannot book a listing meeting. Expired certificates trigger a refresh module. Brand teams see a live readiness view by account, channel, and city from Muscat to Salalah and Sohar.

Yes. The employee LMS app and the trainer app publish under your brand on Google Play and the App Store, on the same cloud backend. Agency promoters and direct-hire merchandisers can run on one app or two, which suits FMCG brands that mix a field agency for modern trade with an in-house baqala-focused general-trade team.
