Produce once, distribute everywhere — with the cost following the food
Your central kitchen stops being a black box. Stores order from a published catalog, production runs at true batch cost, and every transfer posts to both sides of the ledger.
- One catalog and order guide instead of text-message orders
- Batch runs consume raw inventory and create costed finished goods
- Short picks and receipt variances captured per line

The spreadsheet, the group text, and the guesswork
- Spreadsheet order sheets emailed every week
- Text-message order requests to the kitchen
- Manual inter-store cost transfers at month end
- A commissary cost that nobody can reconcile
- Stores order from a short, correct list
- Production knows demand before the day starts
- Cost is right at the moment of receipt
- Fill rate and yield are measurable, so they improve
Pairs with the Logistics module when you deliver the orders yourself.
