How to Save Money on Grocery Shopping for Your Assisted Living Facility
Are you looking for ways to save money on grocery shopping for your assisted living facility? With rising inflation and grocery costs, it can be challenging to stay within budget. But with our service, we can help you reduce costs while still getting exactly what you need.
How We Save You Money
Our approach to grocery shopping focuses on efficiency and precision. By following a detailed menu system that provides the exact quantities of food and ingredients needed, we help you avoid overbuying and wasting supplies. We shop strategically, comparing prices across multiple stores, including Amazon, Sysco, US Foods, Nicholas, and even Costco, to ensure you get the best deals.
We don’t just stop at shopping. Our system is designed to listen to your specific needs and preferences, ensuring your menu is tailored to your residents. Some of our clients prefer us to handle all their shopping because they either dislike the process or appreciate how we do it for them.
Why We’re More Efficient
Many assisted living facilities only use their menu systems once a week, making it hard to become proficient with the software. In addition, turnover in staff can require constant retraining, which leads to inefficiency. Our team, on the other hand, is highly experienced in using menu software daily. This allows us to operate with maximum efficiency, saving you both time and money.
We Only Buy What You Need
One key to saving money is avoiding unnecessary purchases. We only order exactly what you need, reducing the risk of buying extra items that may end up going unused or even “walking out the door” to avoid spoilage. Our system tracks your inventory, ensuring that we always check your pantry first before shopping for more. This prevents overbuying and helps you save even more.
Custom Menus and Flexibility
Whether you’re serving premade meals to save time or creating dishes from scratch to suit a chef’s expertise, we can cater to your preferences. If your facility has a talented cook who loves making meals from scratch, we’ll shop for all the necessary ingredients, including spices, in just the right quantities. We even track how much you’ve used so that next time, we can shop from your pantry first before ordering more.
If you’re looking for new meal ideas, we also offer access to over 40,000 recipes to inspire your kitchen staff.
Our Menu System Keeps You on Track
Our service goes beyond shopping—we also manage your weekly menu. Each week, we’ll send you a proposed menu based on your preferences. If you’d like to make changes, just let us know, and we’ll update the menu and adjust the shopping list accordingly. You’ll also receive a printed list of meals for the week to display for your residents.
Why You Should Choose Our Service
With our service, you pay month-to-month—no long-term contracts required. If we’re not saving you time and money, you can cancel anytime. Many of our customers have saved up to 10% on grocery costs by using our service.
But beyond the financial savings, we’ll save you a significant amount of time by handling the shopping and menu planning. Our system is so efficient that you’ll no longer need to worry about managing your menu software or retraining staff on how to use it. Plus, we’re always available—our service never gets sick and never takes a vacation.
