For grocery and convenience stores

A website and stock system for your store

A corner store lives on two numbers: what is on the shelf, and what it sold for. Most shops track the first in their head and the second on a paper pad, and neither survives a busy Saturday.

Business Lane gives your store a website that says who you are, where you are and when you are open — the things somebody checks at nine in the evening before walking over. Your lines go on with photographs and prices, and the announcement bar covers a late opening or a delivery day.

The part that changes your week is behind the counter. Every product carries a barcode — the manufacturer's, or one printed by you — and an invoice built by scanning takes the stock down as it goes. The number on the screen is the number on the shelf, without anyone counting tins after closing.

What grocery & convenience stores actually need

  • Stock that counts itself down

    Scanning a sale onto an invoice sells it out of inventory. Low-stock alerts warn you before a line runs dry, not after a customer asks for it.

  • Shelf labels you print yourself

    Name, price and barcode on ordinary label sheets. Loose produce and repacked lines get a code of their own so everything scans.

  • Hours people can rely on

    Set them per day and put the bank holiday in the announcement bar. It is the single most common reason anyone looks you up.

What you get

  • Your lines listed with photographs and prices
  • Barcode labels printed on ordinary label sheets
  • Invoices built by scanning with your phone camera
  • Inventory with low-stock alerts before a line runs out
  • Opening hours and an announcement bar for delivery days

Everything above is on the Website plan at $20 a month. The Business plan at $25 adds customer records, invoices, barcode labels and inventory — compare the two plans.

Questions from grocery & convenience stores

Is this a till system?

Not quite. There is no cash drawer, no card terminal and no end-of-day report — it builds an invoice by scanning and takes the stock down with it. For a shop that wants stock control and a receipt without buying a full EPOS system, that is usually the right size. If you need integrated card payments at the counter, you need an EPOS.

What about loose produce with no barcode?

Give it a code of its own — generated from your business name or typed in — and print a shelf label with the price beside it. From then on it scans like anything else. The same trick covers repacked lines and anything you make up in store.

Can customers order online for delivery?

No. There is no cart and no card processing — this shows people what you carry and gets them through the door. Customers can message you about an item, which covers the phone order you already take, but a full delivery operation needs a different product.
