Where is the money going?

In a traditional kitchen, up to 20% of your budget is lost before a resident takes a single bite.

🗑️ Inventory Drift

Without strict controls, kitchens order items "just in case" or purchase retail-priced items not on the menu. This accounts for ~8% of total food spend.

🥕 Yield Loss

You pay for the dirt on the potatoes and the fat on the meat. Traditional prep results in significant weight loss (trimmings) that you paid for but can't serve.

💸 Hidden Fees

Hiring an external Registered Dietitian (RD) to sign off on menus costs $750–$1,500/month. Plus, retail delivery fees and admin time processing 5 different invoices.

Beyond the Spreadsheet

📈

Higher Occupancy

Dining is the #2 decision factor for families. Marketing your facility as serving "Dietitian-Designed, Chef-Prepared" meals is a powerful closing tool that increases conversion rates.
