How Linella Reduced Inventory Time by 55% Across All Stores

The Initial Situation

Linella has dozens of grocery stores across the country, where products sell quickly and many have short shelf lives. Once a month, teams would physically count everything on the shelves and in the warehouse—a long, tedious, and error-prone process.

The Problems They Faced

The inventory was taken at night by different teams, and it was easy to confuse similar products
The numbers from the cash register, the warehouse, and the central records didn’t always match
Missing or excess products were only discovered after days of checking

What We Built Together

We created a mobile app that employees use to scan products by department. The system immediately verifies whether the numbers are correct and automatically compares them with the store and warehouse records. At the end of the shift, management receives a complete report without having to wait days.

The inventory process has become predictable, and discrepancies are visible immediately, not after days.

What Has Changed

Inventory now takes 55% less time than before
Stock levels are accurate more than 99% of the time
Losses from missing or excess products decreased by 18% in the first 3 months
