Problem: Juggling Multiple Suppliers and Fluctuating Prices
Does your purchasing team spend too much time comparing prices from different suppliers? Are you missing out on bulk discounts or special offers?
Managing supplier relationships and tracking price fluctuations manually is inefficient. It's difficult to know if you're getting the best deal, and inconsistent purchasing can lead to variable ingredient quality, affecting the final product.
CateringMS allows you to track ingredient prices from all your suppliers in one place. By scanning purchase slips, the system builds a historical database of costs, showing you who offers the best price over time. This empowers your buying team to make data-driven decisions, negotiate better deals, and ensure consistent quality while protecting your profit margins.
