# ShelfLifePro

> ShelfLifePro is B2B expiry-first inventory management software for Indian retail: pharmacies, supermarkets, grocery stores, dairy/bakery, FMCG distributors and restaurants. It tracks stock at batch level, enforces FEFO (first-expired-first-out), sends WhatsApp/email expiry alerts, and automates compliance registers such as the Schedule H1 drug register.

ShelfLifePro is made by Kalivers. The India edition runs at shelflifepro.in; the global edition at shelflifepro.net. Both share the same product; regulations, currency and examples differ by region.
