Gérer les stocks de produits bios avec Genuka

En bref : pour gérer le stock de produits bios, il faut suivre chaque lot avec sa date d'expiration, vendre d'abord ce qui périme en premier, commander en petites quantités fréquentes et enregistrer chaque perte. Les produits bios ont souvent une durée de vie courte et supportent mal la chaleur. Une gestion au jour près, plutôt qu'au mois, évite de jeter une partie de la marge.

Pourquoi le stock de produits bios est-il plus difficile à gérer ?

Parce qu'il cumule plusieurs contraintes : des produits souvent sans conservateurs, donc périssables, une offre qui dépend des saisons et des récoltes, et des conditions de stockage (chaleur, humidité, coupures d'électricité) qui accélèrent la dégradation.

Un épicier bio de Douala ou d'Abidjan ne peut pas se contenter de savoir combien il lui reste de pots de miel ou de sachets de moringa. Il doit savoir lesquels expirent en premier. Et un produit invendu ne dort pas sur l'étagère : il se perd.

Comment suivre ses produits par lot et date d'expiration ?

En enregistrant chaque arrivage comme un lot distinct, avec sa quantité, sa date de réception et sa date limite. C'est la base de toute gestion de produits périssables.

Dans Genuka, chaque entrée en stock peut porter un numéro de lot et une date d'expiration. Vous voyez ainsi, produit par produit, quels lots sont en rayon et lesquels arrivent à échéance, et vous pouvez être alerté avant qu'ils n'expirent.

Concrètement :

  • À la réception : saisissez le lot et la date limite au moment où vous rangez la marchandise, pas plus tard.
  • En rayon : placez devant les lots qui expirent le plus tôt.
  • À la vente : sortez toujours le lot le plus proche de sa date, c'est la règle du « premier périmé, premier sorti ».

Quand et combien recommander ?

Recommandez souvent, en petites quantités, en vous fondant sur ce que vous vendez réellement. Pour un produit qui se garde quinze jours, acheter pour deux mois revient à programmer des pertes.

  • Fixez un seuil d'alerte par produit : le niveau en dessous duquel vous devez passer commande, en tenant compte du délai de livraison de votre fournisseur.
  • Regardez vos ventes passées : jours de marché, fin de mois, fêtes, saison des pluies. Notre article sur la gestion du stock de produits saisonniers détaille cette anticipation.
  • Travaillez avec des producteurs proches : des délais courts permettent de commander plus souvent et de recevoir des produits plus frais.

Pour la méthode complète des seuils et du réassort, lisez comment éviter les ruptures de stock.

Comment limiter les pertes liées à la conservation ?

En adaptant le stockage au produit et en surveillant les conditions plus que les quantités. Quelques règles simples :

  • Séparez les produits selon leurs besoins : au sec et à l'ombre pour les farines, graines et poudres ; au frais pour les produits laitiers, jus et légumes.
  • Prévoyez les coupures d'électricité : un réfrigérateur sur onduleur ou un congélateur bien rempli tient plus longtemps.
  • Inspectez régulièrement les sacs et emballages (humidité, insectes, emballages gonflés).
  • Écoulez avant qu'il ne soit trop tard : un produit qui approche de sa date peut partir en promotion, en lot ou en dégustation plutôt qu'à la poubelle.

Pourquoi enregistrer chaque perte ?

Parce qu'une perte non enregistrée fausse votre stock et cache un problème. Si vous jetez chaque semaine des légumes d'un même fournisseur, c'est peut-être la quantité commandée ou la qualité de livraison qu'il faut revoir.

Genuka permet d'enregistrer les pertes avec leur motif (produit expiré, abîmé, volé) et d'en suivre le total. Au bout d'un mois, vous savez quels produits vous coûtent le plus en pertes, et vous pouvez agir : commander moins, changer de fournisseur, revoir le stockage. Notre guide pour réduire les coûts d'inventaire donne d'autres leviers.

Quels indicateurs suivre chaque mois ?

Trois chiffres suffisent pour piloter un stock de produits bios :

  1. La valeur des pertes, par produit et par motif.
  2. La rotation : en combien de jours un produit se vend. Plus il périt vite, plus la rotation doit être rapide.
  3. Les ruptures : les produits qui ont manqué, et combien de fois.

Si vous avez plusieurs points de vente ou un entrepôt, suivez ces chiffres pour chacun ; voyez comment gérer l'inventaire sur plusieurs sites.

Passez à l'action : créez votre compte Genuka et suivez vos lots, vos dates d'expiration et vos pertes au même endroit.
