From pen-and-paper to digital sari-sari store: How non-tech convenience store owners tap technology to streamline operations

Ruth Ocampo-Medalle, a 46-year-old mother of five, traditionally managed her sari-sari store in Maracas, Barangay Lahug, Cebu City using a pen, notebook, and considerable patience. Despite her limited tech knowledge, she has transitioned to using the Peddlr app, developed by Samar-native Nel Laygo, to optimize inventory management and streamline operations through her smartphone.

Medalle's challenges in keeping accurate manual records often led to stock shortages and lost sales opportunities. However, after her daughter introduced her to Peddlr, she began leveraging the app to improve her business processes significantly, achieving more reliable stock management and profit calculation.

Laygo's inspiration for creating Peddlr came from recognizing the struggles of many Filipino convenience store owners like Medalle. With over 1.3 million convenience stores across the Philippines, these businesses often fail due to poor inventory and profit monitoring. Peddlr, launched in July 2021, has garnered over two million downloads and features easy usability even without internet connectivity.
