Before

Hasco Group has long been a leader in Somalia’s retail, distribution, and logistics sectors. With a wide portfolio of businesses and a growing customer base, the company played a pivotal role in supplying essential goods and cargo services across the country. However, reliance on fragmented systems for sales, accounting, inventory, and logistics created operational challenges. Limited visibility, inefficiencies, and slow decision-making made it difficult for Hasco Group to scale smoothly while managing its diverse business units. 


Challenge

 

  • Multiple disconnected systems creating inefficiencies and data silos.
  • Difficulty in tracking sales, purchases, and cargo operations in real time.
  • Limited visibility into accounting, inventory, and customer management.
  • High operational costs and delays in project execution and decision-making.


Solution

 

To address these challenges, Hasco Group adopted Odoo ERP as an integrated business solution. Key modules such as Accounting, POS, Inventory, Purchase, Sales, Employees, Website, Project, Document, CRM, and Cargos were implemented to centralize and streamline operations.

With Odoo, the company unified sales, procurement, and inventory workflows, improved financial tracking, and enhanced project management. The CRM module enabled better customer relationship management, while the Cargos app streamlined logistics operations across the group’s cargo services. The Website and Document apps further strengthened digital presence and internal collaboration.

The implementation, completed in three months, was achieved with minimal disruption, equipping Hasco Group with robust tools to manage its diverse operations efficiently.


After


The transformation was significant. Hasco Group gained real-time visibility across its business lines, from retail and distribution to cargo logistics. Operational efficiency improved, costs were reduced, and customer relationships became stronger through better tracking and CRM insights. Collaboration across teams improved dramatically, enabling faster decision-making and smoother project execution. With Odoo ERP, Hasco Group is now positioned to expand confidently while continuing to provide reliable retail and logistics services across Somalia.

  • Centralized operations across retail, distribution, and logistics.
  • Streamlined sales, purchase, and cargo operations for higher efficiency.
  • Improved financial tracking and real-time visibility of inventory.
  • Enhanced collaboration through Odoo Project, Document, and Employees apps.
