We built the system we
wish existed
NuvanaPOS started with a simple observation: Kenyan shop owners are smart, hardworking people running businesses on paper, notebooks, and gut feel — not because they want to, but because nothing better was built for them.
The problem we saw
Walk into almost any retail shop in Kenya and you'll find the same thing: a notebook behind the counter, M-Pesa confirmations on a phone screen, a mental stock list the owner keeps in their head.
These shop owners work incredibly hard. They're up before 6 AM, serve hundreds of customers, manage suppliers, handle staff — and then spend their evenings tallying the day's sales by hand. They never really know if they made money. They reorder stock that's already full, and run out of what sells fast. They grow on instinct alone.
Most POS software is built for Western markets — expensive, complex, requires expensive hardware, and doesn't understand M-Pesa or local tax-compliance needs like eTIMS integration. The few local options are either clunky or designed for large enterprises.
We saw a clear gap. We built NuvanaPOS to fill it.
Our mission is to give every retail shop owner in Kenya the same tools that large supermarkets take for granted — at a price that makes sense for a small business.
Built on these principles
Built for real people
We design for shop owners who did not study technology. If something needs a manual to use, we redesign it.
Priced for small business
Big-shop tools at small-shop prices. Software should help you grow, not eat into your margins.
Your data is yours
We never sell your data. Each business is fully isolated. Backups run automatically every day.
Mobile-first
Most of your team has a phone, not a laptop. NuvanaPOS works well on any Android or iPhone browser.
Local support
When you need help, you reach a real person in Kenya who understands your market and your language.
Always improving
We ship updates regularly based on feedback from our users. Your input shapes the product.
