Reducing off-contract buying Reducing costs And increasing store management productivity.

The average restaurant company today spends nearly half of every dollar earned on food and beverage products and services. With increasing competition and market saturation, executives are looking to optimize for efficiency and capture unrealized return - the supply chain is the first place to start. However, before you can simply cut costs, you have to know where they are being created. Top line procurement cuts or compromises can have significant consequences to operations and customer services. If the benefits of automation are so clear, why are so many supply chain initiatives unsuccessful? The reason is that effective supply chain automation is not an isolated application. It has to be effectively connected to the operational systems and users not only inside your organization but between your partners and suppliers as well, regardless of technology platform or sophistication. At eRestaurant Services our comprehensive tightly integrated SCM suite is designed to address the unique business challenges presented by the food service industry. From enabling fulfillment, distributor integrations, management of promotions activity, contract auditing and much more we stand to meet the challenge.
