We often see general-purpose open-source ERP solutions, but on a rare occasion, we witness a customized specific one like Grocy.

What is Grocy?

Grocy is an open-source self-hosted ERP for grocery shops, household management, dormitories, and big houses.

It is originally created by Bernd Bestel, a german software developer. Currently, it is maintained by a large community of open-source contributors.

Grocy helps the user to manage shopping lists, inventory, purchases, make meal plans, manage grocery equipments, recipes and consumption.
