Fresh produce is sold by weight and loses value each day. A scale, a till and daily reports show what to buy and what to mark down.
Key takeaways
- Waste you can see
- Daily prices in one place
- A scale that shows the total
- Check the shop from anywhere
01What owners tell you
Produce is a daily race against spoilage. A greengrocer who knows what sold and what is left can buy sharper and waste less.
- Spoilage that is not counted.
- Prices change daily with the market.
- Weighing errors and customer doubts.
- Mobile money and cash are mixed.
- The owner is away buying at dawn.
02The words that sell
Owners do not buy equipment. They buy the day they want to have. These are the outcomes to talk about when you pitch a POS to greengrocer.
03Say it like this
Short, plain lines work best. Use them as they are or put them in your own words.
- “You will see how much you bought and how much you sold, so you know your waste.”
- “You change a price once and every till follows.”
- “Your customers will see the weight and the total on the scale.”
- “You will check the day's takings from the market.”
