Veira for your trade

Can Veira sell products by weight, like meat or cereals?

Updated June 2026

Short answer

Veira records sales and stock by product, which covers most shops cleanly. Selling by weight, priced per kilo with a scale, is a specific need for butcheries, greengrocers and cereal sellers, and it is worth confirming directly with the team how that is handled before you rely on it.

More detail

Plenty of trades sell by the unit, and for them this is a non-issue. The trades that price by weight, where a scale sets the amount, have a particular requirement that not every POS supports the same way.

Rather than assume, ask the Veira team how price-by-weight or scale entry works for your trade. If it is not yet supported, it is better to know that up front than to discover it at the counter.
