From Sweet Treats to Smart Systems

Baso Patissier, a charming artisan bakery known for its heavenly pastries, had a hidden struggle behind its mouthwatering display: a chaotic backend. Stock was often untraceable, orders were slow to process, and outdated systems were costing them time, money, and peace of mind.

Enter ARAKA, an official Odoo implementation partner. In just a few weeks, Baso went from scattered spreadsheets to an integrated, data-driven operation—with a 90% reduction in stockouts and faster order fulfillment. Here’s how it happened:

The Challenge: Good Pastries, Bad Processes

Before partnering with ARAKA, Baso Patissier managed inventory and sales using a mix of manual entries and disconnected software.

• Staff had to count stock manually.
• Inventory data was inaccurate or delayed.
• Taking customer orders was slow due to outdated POS systems.
• Decision-making was based on guesswork, not data.

As Rebecca, owner of Baso Patissier, puts it:

“Oh my goodness, that’s like a game changer. Before, we had to write everything down. You didn’t know what was actually remaining in stock unless you went back and counted. Our team had to use an outdated system that wasn’t really working.”

Their delicious products were flying off the shelves, but their backend wasn’t keeping up. They needed more than just tools—they needed a transformation.

The Solution: An Integrated Odoo Implementation by ARAKA

When ARAKA stepped in, their first priority was to deeply understand Baso’s pain points. Together, they implemented a tailored solution using Odoo’s powerful apps:

Inventory Management (Odoo Inventory)

• Real-time stock tracking down to individual ingredients
• Automated reordering rules to avoid shortages
• Batch and expiry tracking for food safety and quality control

Point of Sale (Odoo POS)

• Connected POS terminals that sync directly with inventory
• User-friendly interfaces for fast, intuitive customer service
• Offline and Online customer support to avoid disruptions

Sales & Purchasing Integration

• Linked purchases to inventory levels
• Streamlined supplier communications
• Sales data tied directly to product performance metrics

Reporting and Analytics

With dashboards in place, Rebecca and her team could finally see what was really happening in the business—from anywhere in the world.

“I can follow the business forever—wherever I am in the world. I can keep track of the inventory, see the backend, and know what’s going on in stock. Having everything in one place was a game changer.”

The Outcome: A Bakery Running on Data and Delight

With their new system in place, Baso Patissier has seen impressive results:

📈 90% reduction in stockouts

⏱ 50% faster order processing times

📊 Real-time data for smarter decision-making

🥐 Improved staff efficiency and customer experience

Kenny, Odoo Functional Consultant at ARAKA, shared:

“The experience was quite good. They were already well-organized and made amazing pastries. But they needed something to make their life easier. We emphasized inventory and sales operations—which became great tools for them.”

“Data is key in every decision. As long as you have accurate data at the right time, you can take decisions accordingly and not be left behind by other businesses.”
