real-time inventory management

The efficient management of a craft business begins with sound inventory management. There’s a lot of information to manage, including when a batch will be ready to package, how much inventory is needed to fulfill orders, and when new raw ingredients and packaging materials need to be restocked. Ekos is designed to manage all of that disparate information, so you can ditch the notebooks, whiteboards, and spreadsheets and instead access everything in one digital system.
