GramDharaa Gaushala owns several gaushala stores, selling cow-based products across India. They have started NETTYAM, an initiative of Gramdharaa Gaushala towards a healthy lifestyle by selling eco-friendly and panchgavya products.
Struggling to keep both gaushala and stores in sync, along with inefficient inventory and logistics management - they reached out to Sanskar Technolab for end-to-end management(right from manufacturing, and inventory to sales and CRM).

Challenge | Solution | |
---|---|---|
Inefficiencies in stock tracking and management |

Sales and Accounting Hassles |

This comprehensive approach streamlined financial processes and ensured accuracy. |
Manufacturing and Packaging Disconnect |

This disjointed approach hindered the seamless flow of products from production to the store shelves, leading to inefficient tracking and management of operations. | ERPNext bridged the gap between gaushala manufacturing and store packaging, ensuring a smooth transition of products from production to store shelves. This synchronization enhanced the efficiency of the entire manufacturing cycle. |
GST Complexity |

Missing CRM and POS |
