Software for eastern India's trading hub

Kolkata has long been the trading and distribution centre for eastern and north-eastern India. Wholesale houses in Burrabazar, FMCG distributors, tea traders and food businesses move goods through networks of dealers, salesmen and credit relationships. We build software that brings structure to those networks without disrupting them, working with Kolkata clients remotely.

Local context

Kolkata's distribution networks and their software needs

Many distributors still take orders by phone and track credit in registers. The gains come from structured orders, visible outstanding balances and accurate stock.

  • FMCG and consumer goods distributors need salesman order apps, beat planning, van sales and scheme management.

  • Wholesale traders need dealer-specific pricing, credit limits and GST invoices that sync with Tally.

  • Sweet shops, bakeries and restaurant chains need billing, online ordering and multi-outlet stock control.

  • IT firms in Salt Lake Sector V and New Town look for product and integration capacity.

  • Bengali screens help salesmen and retailers adopt new apps faster.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a salesman order app sync with Tally?

Yes. Many Kolkata distributors keep Tally as their accounting system, so we sync orders, invoices, customer ledgers and stock with it rather than replacing it. TallyPrime can exchange data through its XML interface, and we schedule syncs so salesmen see recent outstanding balances before taking an order. We test the sync against a copy of your company data before going live.

Will the app work for salesmen in areas with weak mobile signal?

It should, if it is built for that. We design field apps to work offline: products, prices, schemes and customer balances are stored on the phone, orders queue locally and sync automatically when a connection returns. We keep the app small and test it on the inexpensive Android phones many field staff carry.

Can the retailer app and invoices be in Bengali?

Yes. We can offer Bengali and English, with product names, schemes and notifications translated, and search that matches both scripts and common transliterations. Printing invoices in Bengali needs fonts your printers support, so we check the hardware early. Keeping text in translation files lets your team correct wording without waiting for an app update.
