Mini Marts (Kedai Runcit)

Stop Losing Money on Expired Goods: Batch Tracking for Mini Marts with a POS System in Malaysia

Malaysian kedai runcit owners can reduce waste and losses by implementing expiry date and batch tracking with KiraPOS inventory management.

Expired Stock is Lost Profit

Every Malaysian mini mart deals with expired products — dairy, bread, snacks, beverages. Each expired item is money thrown away. Proper tracking minimizes these losses.

Why Products Expire Unsold

  • New stock placed in front of old stock
  • No visibility into upcoming expiry dates
  • Staff don't check dates during receiving
  • No system to trigger markdowns in time
  • Batch and Expiry Tracking with KiraPOS

    Take control of product freshness:

    During Stock-In:

    Record expiry dates for each batch received. Different deliveries of the same product are tracked separately.

    Automatic FIFO:

    System reminds staff which batches to sell first. Older stock gets priority in picking and display.

    Expiry Alerts:

  • 30 days out: Review and plan
  • 14 days out: Consider promotions
  • 7 days out: Markdown or remove
  • Markdown Management

    Apply discounts to expiring batches while tracking them separately:

  • See how much revenue comes from clearance sales
  • Measure actual losses from expired write-offs
  • Compare performance across product categories
  • Supplier Returns

    Some suppliers accept returns for expiring stock. Track which products qualify and process returns efficiently.

    Waste Reporting

    Monthly reports show:

  • Total value of expired stock
  • Categories with highest waste
  • Improvement trends over time
  • Protect Your Mini Mart Profits

    Expiry tracking isn't optional for food retail. KiraPOS makes it manageable for busy Malaysian kedai runcit owners.
