Sales stand management with FrachtPilot: These 4 new functions are a must-have!

Classically, you know stalls from strawberries and asparagus, which means that asparagus and berry farming have special requirements in direct marketing. FrachtPilot now offers completely new functions for this purpose: Stalls management. We'll explain to you everything you can do with it.

What's new with FrachtPilot?

Stalls are elementary for every industry with an exclusive season. These are typically asparagus and strawberries — but pumpkins are also sold at stalls. They work in a similar way to a marktet stall, except that they are limited to a specific, annually recurring season. In contrast to market stalls, you need a sales license from the municipality, because they belong to special use. But there is much more to the organization:

What are the requirements of stalls?

One advantage is that they can be set up independently of supermarkets or shops - on the side of the road or on the edge of fields, within and outside villages. Stalls must be supplied. Not least because they're not necessarily in the same field. They need employees to help with sales. They must organise their working hours and the stalls may have different opening hours.

4 core functions of sales stand management:

• Individual opening hours: You can set individual opening times for each stall so that you know which is open and when. This also includes special opening times during holidays, for example.

• Documentation and tracking of sales: The quantities sold can be entered for each stall. This allows you to see where the goods are going and at which stands they are becoming scarce.

• Evaluation of individual sales stands: You can evaluate in real time how well each sales stand is currently doing, or the development over a specific period of time. In this way, you can also follow developments live and react immediately.

• flows of goods: By entering them synchronously, you can see at any time which products are in stock at which stands. If strawberries or asparagus also sell very quickly, you can resupply the stand directly. Alternatively, sellers can enter repeat orders.

Conclusion

You can do these four core functions centrally in your controlling the FrachtPilot interface and you have a good overview of everything.

After the update your FrachtPilot does not change in principle, not apart from the new features, of course. But this unique feature for stalls also required a unique programming effort! We hope you enjoy using it!
