Description

MEINbusiness is an innovative cloud-based tool designed for controlling and business intelligence specifically tailored for the gastronomy and hospitality sectors. This platform provides restaurants, hotels, caterers, and multi-location groups with insights into their true profitability in real-time, eliminating the need for traditional spreadsheets and manual data entry. The process begins when supplier invoices are directly uploaded into the system, where they are automatically digitized, verified, and categorized into the correct accounts. MEINbusiness then integrates this information with your point-of-sale sales data, recipes, and employee records, ensuring that all essential data is centralized rather than dispersed across various applications. Critical metrics such as revenue, cost of goods sold, labor expenses, profit margins, and productivity are displayed in real-time on a single dashboard accessible from any device. Additionally, the platform features automated accounting, access to a comprehensive catalog of over 3 million supplier products, recipe costing, inventory management, and productivity analysis. Furthermore, each user is supported by a dedicated food and beverage manager who assists in enhancing purchasing strategies, optimizing margins, and improving staffing efficiency, ensuring comprehensive operational oversight.

Description

ShelfCount provides a comprehensive inventory and COGS solution for independent restaurants at a flat rate of $50 per month, significantly less than the typical price of $250 or more. Utilizing the smartphones your staff already possesses, the counting process is as simple as opening a link, counting the items on the shelf, and finishing the task—no need for app installations or individual logins. By taking a picture of an invoice, ShelfCount automatically extracts the data, allowing you to approve any price changes before they affect your financials. Furthermore, recipes and prep recipes automatically adjust costs whenever there is a fluctuation in ingredient prices, while par levels can transform a completed count into a purchase order ready for vendors with just one click. Integration with Square or Clover (with Toast pending certification) ensures that sales data is synchronized seamlessly, enabling you to see where margins may be eroding by comparing theoretical and actual COGS. Designed by a restaurant owner, ShelfCount offers a single plan that accommodates unlimited team members and locations, operates on a month-to-month basis, and includes a 14-day free trial without the requirement of a credit card. This innovative approach allows restaurant owners to regain control over their inventory management and financial tracking effortlessly.
