[accordion_block title=”Know what you are selling“]Have each item on your menu fully costed so you know the profitability of each one.

Every price change in your supplies will update/reflect in your menu costs making it easier for you to obtain reports later on.[/accordion_block]
[accordion_block title=”Manage your assets“]Get your equipment and tools serviced and maintained regularly, keeping them readily available for your staff. If you can get an equipment management system and a stock management system that are integrated, that would be ideal for final reporting and analysis.[/accordion_block]

[accordion_block title=”Help your kitchen manage the orders“]Everyone knows the dreaded feeling of deadlines, and more so for chefs! Unhappy customers are not good for business!
