The Challenge

  • New branch launched, new staff hired : La Carnita needs to ensure easy-to-replicate recipes to maintain La Carnita’s standard, and get started as soon as possible.
  • Homemade Excel-based back of house system : no automation means manual labour. No digitization means no accountability. No tracking means no control.
  • Recipes were selling, but profits were not growing : ingredient prices were going up, yet recipe prices had remained the same.
“We were selling, but weren’t maximizing profits. We knew we could take down costs, but couldn’t pin point how. With real time access to menu profitability, Supy helped us figure it out.”
Khalil Kanaan - Managing Partner

The Solution

  • Subscription to Supy’s Back of House Advisory service with dedicated F&B professional: portioning of recipes, recipe costing, and transcription of recipes into Supy.
  • Recipe Profitability: Move over from Excel to Supy-based operations : ingredient price are tracked and linked to recipe profitability. Recipes are listed from most to least profitable.
  • Menu Engineering: Star dishes (high sales, high margins) had become Plow Horses (high sales, low margins), unnoticeably. Immediate changes were done to the menu.
  • Centralization of inventory data: tracking and visualisation of all inventories (across branches and cost centres) for global understanding of operations.

“Supy’s Menu Engineering helped us understand our business and our customers.”

The Results

  • 15% boost in profitability following back of house advisory, analysis of recipe profitability, and menu revamp.
  • Weeks of delay saved and the expenses of an additional full time employee avoided by aligning teams on a digital, mobile-friendly, automated software.
“Supy helps business grow sustainably by putting the spot light on what works, and fixing what doesn’t.”
