Bhuj sells craft, salt and construction material, and each of them is ordered on WhatsApp.
Bhuj lives on Kutchi handicrafts from Bhujodi, Ajrakhpur and the Banni villages, on salt and mineral units, and on the construction material trade that rebuilt the district. GullySystem builds order, stock and booking software for these businesses from its Bengaluru office, starting with a free technology audit. Artisan payments, exhibition sales and resort bookings are the records that go missing first.
Bhujodi weaves shawls and stoles, Ajrakhpur prints ajrakh, and the Banni villages do embroidery, lacquer work and copper bells. The work goes out through co-operatives, through exhibitions in other cities, and to buyers who order on WhatsApp.
The rest of the district works in salt, minerals, cement and construction material, with units around Anjar and Bhachau built after the earthquake. Resorts and homestays on the road to Dhordo fill through the Rann season and empty after it.
The areas, estates and markets that matter in Bhuj.
Bhujodi and Ajrakhpur
Weaving and block-printing workshops selling to buyers, designers and exhibitions across India. Work given out per artisan and the payment due are written in a notebook.
The Banni villages and Nirona
Embroidery, lacquer and copper bell work sold through co-operatives and to visiting buyers. Piece rates and dispatches are tracked by hand.
Anjar and Bhachau
Engineering, pipe, salt and mineral units on the Gandhidham side, with dispatch and weighment records on paper.
Bhuj town around Hamirsar lake
Craft shops, building material dealers, clinics and professional firms serving the district from a small market area.
The Dhordo road and the Rann season
Resorts, tent stays and homestays taking bookings by phone and WhatsApp for a few crowded months of the year.
How Bhuj businesses pick and use software.
Craft businesses in Bhuj sell mostly outside Kutch, so they want a catalogue, a price list and an order record before they want accounting. Many already sell on Instagram and would like orders to stop living inside chat.
Owners are careful with money and slow to sign, and they ask how a system will work when the artisan has no smartphone. The honest answer, that the office records the work given out and the artisan gets a message, usually settles it.
Where Bhuj businesses lose time and money.
Work given to weavers is tracked in a notebook
Yarn issued, pieces expected and payments made per artisan are written across pages. An artisan ledger shows what is out, what came back and what is owed.
Exhibition sales in other cities come back as a bundle of slips
A stall in Delhi or Mumbai sells for a week, and stock and cash are reconciled after the return journey. Billing on a phone at the stall keeps stock and collection live.
Buyers order shawls by photo and we ship the wrong design
Orders arrive as pictures, with a design name nobody wrote down. A catalogue with codes, sizes and prices makes the order unambiguous.
Rann season bookings are taken on two phones
Tents and rooms are promised by the owner and by the manager separately. One booking calendar with advances stops the clash.

Read the case studyQuestions Bhuj owners ask before they call.
We give work to weavers and printers in the villages. Can the software track it?
Yes. Each artisan has a ledger of material issued, pieces received, rejections and payments, so you can see what is pending with whom. Payments are recorded against the pieces rather than as a lump sum.
Can we sell our Kutch craft online without giving up the shop billing?
Yes. The online store and the shop read the same stock, so a piece sold at Bhujodi stops showing as available online. Orders from both come into one list for packing and dispatch.
What happens in the free technology audit?
We look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough to start. You get a report ordered by priority, and there is no obligation to hire us afterwards.
How much will the software cost?
We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. The audit settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
