About Toy Market Group

Established in 1965, Toy Market Group (TMG) is a leading multi-company retail and distribution group specializing in toys, baby products, feeding solutions, and kids’ brands across Lebanon, the Levant, the Middle East, and Africa. Operating through multiple companies, brands, branches, warehouses, ecommerce platforms, and retail channels, TMG manages a highly interconnected ecosystem spanning retail, B2B distribution, warehousing, ecommerce, CRM, and operational services. With a multi-entity omnichannel operation managing retail, ecommerce, warehousing, and distribution across multiple regional markets, TMG operates in a highly complex and fast-moving environment. As the group expanded, reliance on disconnected systems including Dolphin ERP, Libra IDS, Shopify, standalone POS platforms, payroll tools, and third-party applications created operational fragmentation and limited visibility across entities. Today, TMG is evolving into a fully integrated, data-driven retail ecosystem enabling centralized operations and scalable omnichannel growth.

Key Challenges

Fragmented Multi-System Operations Across Companies & Branches

Operations relied on multiple disconnected systems including Dolphin ERP, Libra IDS, Shopify, standalone POS systems, payroll platforms, and third-party sales applications, creating operational silos, inconsistent reporting, duplicated processes, and limited visibility across companies and branches.

Complex Multi-Company Financial Consolidation & Operational Control

Managing multiple legal entities, intercompany transactions, ownership-based consolidation, branch-level cost centers, and shared financial structures 

Large-Scale Retail & POS Operational Complexity

Large-scale retail workflows across multiple branches, POS stations, brands, loyalty programs, promotions, and customer channels, requiring synchronized retail operations, real-time inventory visibility, and centralized customer engagement management.

Disconnected Ecommerce, CRM & Customer Engagement Channels

Customer engagement, ecommerce operations, CRM activities, marketing automation, and customer analytics were fragmented across platforms, limiting omnichannel visibility, behavioral marketing capabilities, customer retention strategies, and centralized customer intelligence

Highly Interconnected Inventory & Warehousing Operations

Centralized inventory management across warehouses, branches, retail operations, ecommerce channels, and B2B distribution workflows, while managing product variants, replenishment rules, stock forecasting, barcode operations, and intercompany transfers.

Need for a Scalable ERP Strategy with Controlled Customization

Previous unsatisfactory Odoo experience moved TMG to Azkatech for more structured ERP methodology focused on operational fit, phased rollout, scalability, minimized customization, and long-term operational continuity.

Key Features & Solution

Tailored to Toy Market Group’s highly interconnected retail, distribution, ecommerce, and multi-company operational environment, Azkatech implemented a structured Odoo ERP approach to centralize operations, improve visibility, and unify all business functions within a single scalable ecosystem.

Rather than limiting the implementation to isolated departments, the approach focused on building a centralized multi-company ERP foundation connecting finance, inventory, warehousing, POS, ecommerce, CRM, HR, and operational workflows across all companies and branches. The implementation was designed to support both retail and B2B operations while maintaining operational continuity across multiple entities, warehouses, ecommerce channels, and customer touchpoints.

Following a previous unsatisfactory Odoo experience, TMG prioritized a more structured implementation methodology focused on operational fit, phased rollout, minimized customization, scalability, and long-term operational continuity. Azkatech adopted a validation-driven implementation approach including discovery workshops, fit-gap analysis, controlled customization, Conference Room Pilots (CRP), user acceptance testing, training, and progressive rollout phases to ensure operational alignment and reduce implementation risk.

Why Azkatech

In entertainment and retail-driven environments like Toy Market Group where retail operations, ecommerce, warehousing, customer engagement, and multi-company coordination must operate seamlessly in real time—visibility alone is not enough. What matters is synchronization across channels, operational consistency, customer experience, and the ability to scale without operational complexity.


Azkatech approached by understanding TMG’s operational ecosystem across retail, B2B distribution, ecommerce, finance, warehousing, and customer engagement workflows. Rather than implementing isolated modules, the focus was on building a connected ERP environment capable of supporting omnichannel retail operations, centralized financial management, inventory synchronization, and operational visibility across all companies and branches.


The solution was designed around TMG’s real operational challenges while minimizing unnecessary customization and maintaining long-term scalability. Instead of replacing operational workflows with rigid processes, this transformation was delivered through a phased, validation-driven implementation approach including fit-gap analysis, Conference Room Pilots (CRP), controlled customization, user acceptance testing, training, and continuous post-go-live support to better support operational efficiency and customer experience.
