The Turning Point: Outgrowing Fragmented Systems

The group used a patchwork of solutions including Foodics PoS, Excel, and paper records, which became unsustainable with rapid business growth.

 
 
  • Fragmented Systems
    • Foodics, Excel, and paper records created silos between departments.
  • Manual Data Entry
    • Time-consuming, error-prone processes were hard to reconcile.
  • No Centralized Tracking
    • Difficult to monitor kitchen inventory, sales, and costs in real-time.
  • Delayed Reporting
    • Lack of real-time KPIs or financial insights hindered decision-making.
  • No Workflow Automation
    • Chefs, procurement, and accounting teams worked in isolation.
  • High Food Waste
    • Lack of tracking made it impossible to manage or minimize food waste
