Fashion Shop POS SaaS — Multi-tenant Retail Platform
Challenge
A growing fashion retail chain needed a unified Point-of-Sale (POS) system to manage inventory, sales, and online orders across multiple stores and wholesale operations. Existing solutions lacked seamless desktop-web synchronization, real-time data sharing between retailer and wholesaler workflows, and scalable multi-store support, causing inventory discrepancies and delayed reporting.
The business required a SaaS model to onboard new stores quickly, support both B2C and B2B scenarios, and provide intuitive interfaces for non-technical users. Key objectives included category/product management, automated invoicing, top-customer analytics, and secure payment processing.
Solution
We engineered a multi-tenant SaaS POS with ASP.NET Core APIs, Blazor Server/WebAssembly for a responsive web interface, and .NET MAUI desktop clients for store terminals. Tenant isolation used TenantId-based row-level security on a shared Azure SQL Database. Real-time sync across web, desktop, and mobile was achieved with SignalR.
Core Features
- Tenant-specific product catalogs and category management
- Invoice and purchase order automation with wholesaler-retailer toggles
- Real-time inventory & sales sync via SignalR
- Stripe payments with per-tenant credentials and webhook ledger sync
- Interactive dashboards and analytics (Power BI Embedded)
Tech Stack
- Backend: ASP.NET Core APIs, Azure SQL (multi-tenant with row-level security)
- Frontend: Blazor Server/WebAssembly (PWA); .NET MAUI for desktop
- Real-time Sync: SignalR, Azure Service Bus
- UI Controls: Syncfusion (grids, charts)
- Payments: Stripe (API + webhooks)
- Analytics: Power BI Embedded
Implementation
Delivered an agile multi-tenant platform: designed tenant middleware, row-level security, Blazor web PWA for offline support, MAUI desktop clients for in-store terminals, SignalR sync and Stripe integration. CI/CD via GitHub Actions and infrastructure automation with Terraform enabled rapid, repeatable deployments.
