and Opportunity
Food waste and loss are vexing issues for restaurants and without an accurate inventory of ingredients, it’s impossible to grasp the impact. The POS is a logical place to maintain inventory but is not the full solution. Matching ingredients with meals requires a POS integrated solution to minimize loss and manage profitability.
Just-in-time inventory is becoming the standard and technology is necessary to alleviate the time-consuming process of taking inventory. From digital sign boards to the POS to the suppliers, a restaurant’s inventory has to be up-to-date and ingredients consistently named across all systems.

Customer Insights
Although they may be swayed by seasonal and event driven promotions, customers expect that all featured menu items and more importantly, their favorite ones, will always be available. Increasingly, real time updates are a necessity as customers assume any visible items on the menu are available to order through online and delivery channels.
According to restaurateurs, inventory is one of the most important integrations to the POS.
Food spend is 1/3 of the costs for a restaurant business
Cut food costs by 2-6% by tracking food thrown away

16% of a restaurant’s food ends up in the trash
