Automatic supplier ordering: the restaurant that buys what it will use

Ordering by looking at the cold room and relying on memory works until it doesn't: you run out of something on a Saturday or throw away what you over-ordered. FoodSync works out what you'll use, subtracts what you have and leaves each supplier's order ready to review and send.

How the order is calculated

The chain is closed end to end, with no spreadsheet halfway.

  • Real usage history, from sales and recipes
  • One forecasting model per ingredient, the one with the lowest error on your data
  • Forecast per opening day, respecting your closing calendar
  • Minus the stock available in the cold room, by batch
  • Order per supplier with delivery day, cut-off time, minimum and pack size

You decide, the system prepares

The order comes out as a proposal. You review it, adjust what you want and confirm it. When the goods arrive, the delivery note is matched to the order and, if a supplier raises a price, you see it when confirming.

Data first

If an ingredient has little history, the forecast says so instead of making up a number. Over the weeks, each ingredient ends up with the model that predicts best for your venue.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need my recipes loaded?
Yes: each ingredient's usage comes from sales multiplied by recipes. Loading your recipe costings is the first step, and in the demo we look at the timeline with your menu.
Is the order sent to the supplier automatically?
No: it's left ready for you to review and confirm. A person always decides.
Does it account for the days I'm closed?
Yes. The forecast only covers the days you open, according to your closing calendar.
What if I work with many suppliers?
Each one has its delivery day, cut-off time, minimum order and pack sizes, and the order is split by supplier.
