Step 1
Counter sale
Cut, ring, pay — without a second notebook.
- Add cut and extra lines in Point of Sale.
- Collect M-Pesa or cash against that ticket.
- Print or skip the receipt as the customer prefers.
- Stock and sales stay on the same system.
POS for Butcheries
Butchery POS for fast nyama counters and honest closeouts
Kenyan butcheries fight queues, mixed cash and M-Pesa, and stock that walks. Zeni POS keeps the counter moving, ties payments to tickets, and gives the owner inventory and Profit & Loss instead of a notebook under the scale.
Challenges butcheries face
- Customers waiting while meat is cut and the till is a calculator
- M-Pesa and cash mixed across a busy Saturday
- No record of what left the fridge versus what was paid
- Assistants closing without a named shift report
- Owners seeing turnover, not margin after wastage
What Zeni POS gives you
- Fast Point of Sale for mixed lines (cuts, eggs, spices)
- M-Pesa STK push on the cart total
- Inventory habits at receiving
- Transactions by cashier for shift close
- Offline selling when the estate network drops
- P&L after a high-volume weekend

Step 3
Shift close
End the argument over the drawer.

- Match M-Pesa totals.
- Spot-check fridge stock against the system.

FAQs for butcheries
Can Zeni POS work for a butchery that sells by the kilo?
Yes. Represent each sellable cut or pack as a product (including per-kg items you ring at the agreed price). The cart holds mixed lines in one ticket.
Does butchery POS need a special scale integration?
Many Kenyan butcheries weigh, then ring the price in POS. Tell us on the demo how you price today; we set products around that habit rather than forcing supermarket barcodes on every cut.
What is example butchery POS pricing in Kenya?
Single-counter examples often start near KES 3,500/month. Busier multi-user shops are quoted from about KES 6,000/month — always in writing after demo.
