NetSuite for Restaurant Groups & Food Service
Scale Your Restaurant Group, Franchise, or Food Business with Confidence
Multi-Location Operational Chaos
Each venue operates independently with different systems, making it impossible to get consolidated reporting, standardise processes, or maintain consistent quality across locations.
Supply Chain & Inventory Nightmares
Managing ingredients across multiple locations, dealing with perishables, tracking lot numbers for food safety, and coordinating deliveries becomes exponentially complex as you grow.
Franchise Management Complexity
Tracking royalties, managing franchise compliance, consolidating reporting across franchisees, and maintaining brand standards requires systems that most food businesses don't have.
Financial Visibility Gaps
You can't get real-time profitability by location, struggle to identify which venues or menu items drive profit, and lack the financial controls needed for sustainable expansion.
Compliance & Traceability Requirements
Food safety regulations, lot tracking, expiry date management, and supplier compliance create administrative burdens that manual systems can't handle efficiently.
Unified Multi-Location Management
One system for all venues and operations. Consolidate financial reporting, standardise processes, and maintain real-time visibility across every location, from individual restaurants to complex franchise networks.
Advanced Restaurant & Food Service Supply Chain
Complete ingredient-to-plate traceability. Manage perishable inventory, automate reorder points, track lot numbers for compliance, and optimise purchasing across all locations to reduce waste and ensure quality.
Franchise & Multi-Entity Operations
Streamlined franchise management from a single platform. Handle royalty calculations, franchise compliance tracking, consolidated reporting, and inter-company transactions while maintaining individual location autonomy.
Real-Time Financial Performance
Know exactly what's profitable and what isn't. Get venue-by-venue profitability analysis, menu item performance tracking, and real-time financial dashboards that show where to focus growth efforts.
Food Safety & Compliance Automation
Automated compliance and traceability. Built-in lot tracking, expiry date management, supplier compliance monitoring, and food safety reporting that keeps you audit-ready without manual administration.
Recipe & Production Management
Consistent quality at scale. Standardised recipes, production planning, yield tracking, and quality control processes ensure every location delivers the same experience your brand promises.
