What was the problem?
DBO Gastronomie operated a growing network of German dining locations but suffered from fragmented supplier orders, manual inventory counting, and menu margin erosion caused by fluctuating wholesale ingredient prices. The challenge was to connect central commissary ordering with kitchen recipe cost controls.
How we structured the solution.
A customized restaurant ERP unifying supplier purchasing, stock variance tracking, and plate margins.
Control ingredient margins. Automate kitchen restocking.
REEA Digital built an integrated gastronomy ERP using Laravel and Vue.js that connects restaurant branch managers directly with preferred food and beverage distributors through electronic EDI ordering.
The platform breaks down recipe sub-recipes into raw ingredient gram weights, monitoring live food cost fluctuations against point-of-sale sales data to surface inventory waste and safeguard dish profitability.
Automate commissary orders. Safeguard recipe margins.
The delivered capabilities were designed to solve the core problem: reduce restaurant ingredient spoilage and lock in target menu profit margins.
