FMCG manufacturing & distribution
Covadesk makes it, stores it and sells it: batch production with yield and QA, bin-level warehousing, van sales with end-of-day reconciliation, and a field sales app where reps check in by GPS and take orders that land as real sales orders against the customer’s credit limit.
Built for: Food and beverage, household and personal-care manufacturers, bakeries, dairies and bottlers that sell through distributors, vans and field reps.

The problems we solve
GPS check-ins inside a customer’s geofence prove the visit, and orders taken on the phone convert straight to sales orders.
Each van’s load-out, sales, returns and cash are reconciled at the end of the day, with M-Pesa takings included.
Field orders hit the same credit check as office orders, so a rep cannot sell past a customer’s limit.
Every batch records input and output against plan, with QA and non-conformance on the same record.

Every batch from planned to closed, with input, output and extraction.

Today’s field activity: check-ins, visits, orders and live rep locations.

Vans loaded from the depot, sold in the field and reconciled at day end.

Yesterday’s mango juice run from tank to filler: yield against target, and ingredients, packaging, labour and overheads adding up to a true cost per kilo.

The month’s losses by type and by product as a share of what went in — the spillage and rejects that never show in a sales report.

Questions
Yes. Reps can check in and take orders without signal; the app queues them and syncs when the connection returns.
A field order converts into a normal sales order, so it goes through the same credit check, stock reservation, delivery and invoicing as any other order.
Yes. Each van load records what left the warehouse; sales and returns are recorded against it, and the day closes with stock, cash and M-Pesa reconciled.
