Improperly managed inventory can result in certain menu items being unavailable which in turn decreases customer satisfaction levels. Alternatively, if ingredients are not stocked correctly, a customer may be greeted with an incorrect condiment or ingredient that could ruin their entire meal.
A best practice to keep inventory items properly stocked is to invest in and implement inventory management software that can integrate with existing
POS systems, enabling management to track all ingredient usage in real-time with every sale and purchase order.
