Case Study: Khatsahlano Kanabis achieves 2,800 hours saved yearly and $800/week in payroll savings with KayaPush

How This Vancouver Dispensary Saves 2,800 Hours A Year

Khatsahlano Kanabis, Vancouver’s only beachfront cannabis store run by Dr Doug, needed a way to manage staff, payroll and schedules while he continued a full‑time dentistry career. With no retail or cannabis background, manual payroll processing, lack of labor vs. sales visibility, and the administrative burden of running a store threatened his ability to scale; KayaPush was recommended (via Cova POS consultants) to provide people‑management, scheduling and payroll automation.

KayaPush implemented an integrated workforce-management suite—scheduling, time tracking, payroll automation, employee self‑service and Cova POS integration—so payroll runs in minutes, clocked hours are audited only when flagged, and managers can forecast sales and optimize labor. As a result Khatsahlano Kanabis reports roughly 2,800 hours saved per year and about $800 saved weekly in payroll/admin costs, the ability to avoid overpayments, the freedom for Dr Doug to keep practicing dentistry while expanding to more stores, and improved operational visibility and peace of mind.
