Money in Alta Verapaz arrives by harvest cuts, not evenly all year
Cardamom is cut in seasons, with a first cut between September and October, another between December and January and another between March and May, and buying and selling in northern Alta Verapaz starts at the end of August. When the grower gets paid, Cobán shops sell; when they do not, the street goes quiet. A business like that is not run off a yearly average: Cuadra gives you sales by day, by month, by product and by branch, with the real margin on each item, so you buy inventory before the cut and not after it.
Cobán is the department supply hub
Groceries, clothing, medicine and fuel reach Cobán from the capital and from Quetzaltenango before being distributed across the region. If you sell wholesale as well as over the counter, the deal starts with a quote, not a sale. Cuadra builds it from your products and prices, you send it over WhatsApp or print it with your logo, and when the customer accepts it becomes an order in one tap, with nothing retyped. You follow it through your own statuses until you deliver it.
The last week of July the city fills up
Rabin Ajaw and the Santo Domingo de Guzmán patron feast land almost on top of each other, between the end of July and the first days of August, and Cobán receives visitors from across the country. Those days you take on extra hands, and that is where cash goes missing without anyone lying. In Cuadra every shift opens by declaring the float and closes by counting the real cash against what the sales say; overs and shorts are recorded and never deleted, with a report per shift and per cashier, and large discounts and voids ask for a manager PIN.
212 kilometres from the capital, cash on delivery has to add up
Cobán is about 212 km from Guatemala City, and much of what you ship is paid for on arrival. With Cuadra you ship cash on delivery and record how much the courier must collect on each order. When they pay you, Cuadra compares what was deposited against what was collected and flags what does not add up, without you checking order by order or trusting that the deposit came in full.
A dropped signal cannot close your shop
Connectivity in the region is not always steady, and a point of sale that freezes without internet leaves you ringing up sales in a notebook. The Cuadra point of sale keeps taking payments with no signal and syncs when the connection comes back, so the sale is neither lost nor written down twice. None of this needs a server in your shop: you open it from your phone browser.

Frequently asked questions
Does Cuadra work if I sell both wholesale and retail?
Yes. You send the quote with your products and prices, and when the customer accepts it becomes an order in one tap, with nothing retyped. At the counter you sell as usual, and inventory is shared between both, so you are not keeping two stock lists.Corposistemas is here in Cobán. Do I have to hire them to invoice?
No. Corposistemas, S.A. operates out of Cobán and appears on SAT official list of DTE certifiers, but with Cuadra you do not hire a certifier separately: the invoice, the receipt and the credit note come back certified by SAT in the same sale. SAT defines the DTE format, so the document is worth the same.I ship to the surrounding municipalities and get paid on delivery. How do I keep track?
You ship cash on delivery and record how much the courier must collect on each order. When they pay you, Cuadra compares that deposit against what was collected and flags the difference, without you checking order by order.The signal drops often here. Will my sale freeze?
No. The point of sale keeps taking payments with no signal and syncs when the connection returns, so you neither lose the sale nor write it down twice.My shop only fills up in season. How do I know how much to buy?
With the reports: sales by day, by month, by product and by branch, with the real margin on everything you sell. You compare the harvest months against the slow ones and buy from last year figures rather than from memory.What does it cost?
Pro is Q249 a month and includes 250 DTE per month; after that it is Q0.75 per DTE. Premium is Q500 a month with 500 DTE included and Q0.50 per extra DTE. You start with a 14-day Pro trial, no card and nothing charged.
