A bakery counter that keeps selling when the internet stops.
RINA Bakery runs on an Android till at the counter and a browser console for the owner. The till takes cash and mobile money, prints a receipt, moves the loaves off the shelf and records the batch that made them — whether or not there is a network. The owner reads the day from anywhere.

What RINA does
Sells without a network
Every sale is written to the till's own database first. If the shop's internet is down the counter does not notice; the sales queue and go up the moment it returns.
Cash and mobile money
Cash with change calculated and quick-tender buttons for the usual notes, or M-Pesa, Mixx, Airtel Money, HaloPesa and the banks — recorded against the reference on the customer's message.
Production batches
What was baked, how much was planned, what came out and what was rejected. The bakery's own screen, and the reason stock figures mean something.
Stock that moves itself
A loaf sold leaves the shelf in the same write as the money arriving, so the count never disagrees with the takings.
Spending and banking
Flour, fuel, wages and rent recorded against the day they were paid, and bank deposits matched to what the drawer should have held.
Nothing is deleted
A voided sale is struck through and reported on its own, with the reason and who authorised it. Covering a shortfall leaves a mark.
The owner's console
Opens in a browser, on any device. The figures are the business's own, for whatever period the owner picks.
The till, at the counter
An Android terminal at the counter, built for a thumb: large targets, a search box, and the three things a cashier needs on one screen. It keeps its own copy of the shop's catalogue and sales, so it is never waiting on a server to take money.
