Stock, job work and bookings for Agra’s shoe units, export factories and Taj Ganj hotels.
Agra’s businesses centre on footwear and Taj tourism, with records kept in notebooks, Excel and WhatsApp. Shoe units count stock by article, colour and size set, and uppers are made by job workers in homes near Hing ki Mandi. Export factories at Sikandra and Nunhai track samples in Excel, and Fatehabad Road hotels handle booking sites and walk-ins. Stock, order and booking software for all three is built at the Nagarbhavi office in west Bengaluru.
Hing ki Mandi and the lanes around it form Agra’s wholesale shoe market. Small units there cut, stitch and last shoes, often with uppers made by job workers in nearby homes. Nothing sits under one roof. Larger export factories in the Sikandra and Nunhai industrial areas produce footwear and leather goods for overseas and Indian brands, working to buyer specifications and shipment dates.
Foundry Nagar grew around metal casting and engineering. Tourism runs separately, with hotels on Fatehabad Road, guest houses in Taj Ganj, and petha makers around Noori Darwaza selling to sweet shops and highway travellers.
The areas, estates and markets that matter in Agra.
How Agra businesses pick and use software.
Software for a shoe unit has to show stock by article, colour and size without slow data entry at the godown. Generic retail billing apps are built around single items rather than size sets, so they fit footwear poorly. A size matrix is the starting requirement.
Export factories already work in Excel, with a sheet for the order, another for the cutting plan and a third kept by the merchandiser. Each sheet is understood by one person. The practical step is to connect these, from the order sheet to the cutting plan and the packing list, rather than replace them.
Where Agra businesses lose time and money.
Size-wise shortages are not visible
A Hing ki Mandi unit sells in size sets, but retailers also ask for broken sizes. Without size-wise stock, production plans miss which sizes are running out, so some sizes get over-made while others sell through completely. Broken sizes are the gap.
Leather issued to upper makers is not tracked
Cut leather goes to job workers for uppers. How many pairs sit with each worker, and how much leather was wasted along the way, is recorded only in the supervisor’s notebook. Pair counts are hard to confirm.
Sample stages are tracked informally
An export factory in Sikandra handles sample requests from several buyers at once. Which sample is at which stage is kept on a board or in Excel. Courier dates can slip.
Bookings from several sources reach the front desk separately
A Fatehabad Road hotel takes bookings from online travel agents, tour operators and the phone. When the room chart is updated by hand after each booking, a room can be sold twice. Double bookings follow.

Can the software handle footwear stock by article, colour and size?
Yes. Stock and billing are built around a size matrix, so a dealer order, a production plan or a stock check shows every size of every article. Invoices can still go to Tally for your accounts.
Can a Taj Ganj guest house connect its online travel agent bookings?
It depends on the channel manager. A channel manager is usually cheaper to buy than to build, and a suitable one can be connected to the front desk, billing and WhatsApp confirmations. The room chart then stays current. A first review can shortlist the option that fits a small guest house.
What happens after I share my requirements?
An engineer reads what you send and replies within one business day. We then 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. You get a short written summary ordered by priority, with 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. That first review settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
