Stock Management for Newsagents
A newsagent’s money is made in small numbers: pennies of margin on tobacco, impulse confectionery that sells out by Friday, and a counter that’s too busy at 7am to be counting anything.
INV3NTORY keeps the counts and the margins straight without adding work — sales from your till update stock automatically, and the products that matter most warn you before they run dry.
Tobacco under proper control
High-value, tight-margin stock with live counts and owner-only visibility of pricing and margins — staff see stock levels, not your numbers.
Impulse lines that never sell out
Minimum levels on your fast confectionery and drink lines, with alerts in time to reorder before the weekend.
Counter-speed workflow
Everything works in ten-second bursts on a phone behind the counter — built for a shop where the queue comes first.
Know your real margin mix

Common questions
Can staff use it without seeing my margins?
Yes. Staff accounts see stock levels, the scanner, and waste logging. Prices, margins, and financial reports stay owner-only.
Does INV3NTORY manage news and magazine sale-or-return?
You can track newspaper and magazine stock like any product, but there’s no dedicated sale-or-return reconciliation with news wholesalers — most newsagents keep their news supplier process and use INV3NTORY for everything else in the shop.
What does it cost for a small newsagent?
Plans start at £49/month with a free 14-day trial and no card required to start. Current pricing is on the pricing page.
