# POS System for Fast Food Outlets and Takeaways in Kenya

POS for fast food and takeaway outlets in Kenya

Do you know what sold today, and who sold it?

Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that.

**In this guide you will see:**

- Orders are written by hand and misread in the kitchen.
- Combos and extras are priced inconsistently.
- Delivery orders and riders' cash are tracked on paper.

Quick answer

A takeaway runs on speed: orders come in at the counter, by phone and by rider. Mixed-up orders and cash that does not match the tickets cost both money and repeat customers.

Why this matters now

## Each week without records is a week of money you cannot trace.

### If you wait

- Cash, stock and receipts that never agree
- Queues because every price is typed
- Mistakes you find out about at month end

### What you get

- Scan and sell in seconds
- Stock updates with every sale
- An end-of-day report for each cashier

## The problem in fast food outlets and takeaways

A takeaway runs on speed: orders come in at the counter, by phone and by rider. Mixed-up orders and cash that does not match the tickets cost both money and repeat customers.

- Orders are written by hand and misread in the kitchen.
- Combos and extras are priced inconsistently.
- Delivery orders and riders' cash are tracked on paper.
- Cashiers cannot tell what is selling best by hour.
- Customers wait without knowing when their order is ready.

## What the system does for you

**Combo menu**: Meals, extras and sizes in one tap

**Kitchen tickets**: Orders print or show in the kitchen the second they are taken

**Order numbers**: Each order gets a number to call or display

**Delivery orders**: Record rider, address and cash collected

**Item reports**: Best sellers by hour and day

**Cashier control**: Voids and discounts need approval

## Typical equipment

| Item | What it is for |
| --- | --- |
| Touchscreen POS terminal | The till screen the cashier uses; Windows or Android |
| 80mm receipt printer | Prints receipts and kitchen or bar orders |
| Barcode scanner | Scans products in a second, with no price typing errors |
| Cash drawer | Opens automatically on each cash sale |
| Kitchen printer or display | Gets orders to the cooks without shouting |
| Order-ready display (optional) | Shows order numbers ready for pickup |
