If you sell stocked goods (the retailer)
You buy products from suppliers, hold them in stock, and sell them to customers. Maybe you have a physical shop, an online presence, or both.
With Octopus V you get:
- Procurement batches to track what you bought, from whom, at what cost
- Inventory that updates automatically when you sell
- VAT, sales records, expenses, and receivables all in one place
- A website (on OS plans) that lists your products and updates stock when customers buy
- AI Advisor that tells you which products are moving, which are not, and which are running low
Example merchants: A bar in Lagos. A grocery shop in Bodija market. An online accessories store. A cosmetics retailer.
Recommended plan: Basic MAX (₦12,000/month) or OS (₦30,000/month) if you want a website.

If you make what you sell (the producer)
You buy raw materials, run production, and sell finished products. You need to know your cost per unit. You need to know what is in production. You need to track recipes and overheads.
With Octopus V you get:
- Procurement for raw materials, separate from finished goods
- Production runs with input tracking, overhead allocation, and automatic cost calculation
- Recipe templates so you do not have to start from scratch each time
- Multi-tier pricing (wholesale, distributor, retail)
- Customer types so each buyer gets the right price
- A website (on OS plans) for direct-to-consumer sales
Example merchants: A detergent producer. A bakery. A spice manufacturer. A garment producer. A craft maker.
Recommended plan: Basic MAX (₦12,000/month) or OS MAX (₦45,000/month).

If your business does several things at once (the hybrid)
A tailor sells fabric AND sews custom clothes. A baker sells bread AND takes custom cake orders. A hardware store sells stocked tools AND offers installation services. Most software forces you to pick one shape. Octopus V does not.
With Octopus V you get:
- Stocked goods tracked as inventory
- Custom orders and services as website-only items
- Raw materials in procurement, never listed on the website
- Each part of your business handled in the way that fits it
- One dashboard showing the full picture
Example merchants: A tailor. A bakery with custom orders. A hardware store with installation. A salon that sells products. A printing business.
Recommended plan: Basic MAX (₦12,000/month) or OS (₦30,000/month).
