How Stratford Fresh Market tamed fast-moving stock

A market stall and a shop, both turning over fresh produce by the hour. Priya was guessing at stock and drowning in the weekend rush — until Amar made the count live and let customers order ahead.

A local shop, run like a modern one.

Stratford Fresh Market sells fruit, veg and flowers from a high-street shop and a weekend market stall. Trade was strong, but stock was guesswork and Saturdays were chaos.

The challenge

Before Amar: a stall, a shop and no single picture

The count was always wrongStock moved too fast to track by hand, so the shelf and the system never matched.

Weekends were a scrambleQueues out the door and no way to spread the rush.

Online and the stall clashedSelling the same crate twice meant awkward refunds.

What changed

What Amar changed

Live stock, everywhereOne honest count across the shop and the stall.

Order-ahead & deliveryRegulars reserve the weekend box and collect in a slot.

End-of-day markdownsShort-dated produce sells off instead of getting binned.

“Fruit and veg moves fast and the count used to be guesswork. Now it’s live, people order ahead for the weekend, and the Saturday queue is half what it was.”
