Project Overview

TechMobile Retail, a leading multi-brand mobile phone retailer with 12 locations across Dhaka and Chattogram, approached Global Kernel to develop a comprehensive shop management system. The client needed a robust solution to manage their growing inventory of 10,000+ mobile devices across multiple branches, track individual device IMEI numbers, streamline sales and purchase processes, and gain real-time visibility into their business performance.

The existing manual system using spreadsheets had become unmanageable, leading to frequent stock discrepancies, delayed order processing, and difficulty tracking device warranties and after-sales service. TechMobile required a digital transformation that would automate their core operations and provide actionable business intelligence.

The Challenge

  • Managing 10,000+ mobile devices across 12 branches with accurate IMEI tracking was nearly impossible with spreadsheets
  • Frequent stock discrepancies between physical inventory and records caused revenue losses estimated at 8% annually
  • Sales staff spent 30% of their time manually searching for device availability across branches
  • Purchase order processing took 3-4 days due to manual approval workflows
  • Profit and loss calculations were only available at month-end, limiting timely business decisions
  • Customer purchase history was not centrally tracked, making warranty claims and after-sales service inefficient

Our Solution

Global Kernel designed and deployed a feature-rich Mobile Shop Management System built on Laravel and MySQL, customized specifically for multi-brand mobile phone retail operations. The system was deployed as a centralized cloud-based application with role-based access for each branch.

The core architecture focused on IMEI-level inventory tracking, enabling the client to trace every single device from purchase order through to final sale and after-sales service. Each device IMEI number is scanned at receiving, transfer, and sale points, ensuring complete traceability and eliminating stock discrepancies.
