The Challenge

Savannah Trading, a Nairobi-based import/export business, ran their accounts in Excel. Month-end close took 2 weeks, KRA VAT returns were filed late regularly, and the owner had no real-time visibility into profitability.

2

The Solution

Runox cloud accounting with Kenyan tax compliance replaced the spreadsheets. Bank reconciliation, VAT calculations (16% standard rate), and KRA-format returns were automated. Multi-currency support handled USD and KES transactions seamlessly.

The Results

Month-end close dropped from 2 weeks to 2 days. KRA returns were filed on time every month. The owner accessed real-time P&L and cash flow from their phone for the first time.
