Food Court & Hospitality
Profitability and compliance at every service.
Between rapid customer turnover, multiple food concepts and allergen labelling obligations, food courts are always juggling. CalcMenu centralises recipes, costs and labelling so your team can focus on the guest experience — not spreadsheets.
A solution built for your sector
CalcMenu scales to your operation, from a few dozen to several thousand covers. The goal stays the same: one source of truth for recipes, allergens, and costs.
Appealing menus, controlled costs, allergens on display. Everything a modern food court demands.
Hospitality & restaurants
Hotels, casinos, mountain and seaside resorts, restaurant chains and franchises all run the same recipe across multiple outlets, seasons and teams — and need the food cost, allergens and labelling to match every single time. CalcMenu keeps one reference recipe per dish, with costs, allergens and compliant labels recalculated automatically the moment a supplier price or a menu changes, whether that's one restaurant or hundreds of franchised locations.
What your teams deal with every day
Selling prices set by gut feeling, not by calculation
Raw material costs change every week. Without real-time calculation, margins erode without anyone noticing — until the accounts arrive.
Allergen display: a handwritten note on the counter
The recipe changes, the label doesn't. In the event of an inspection or a customer incident, the lack of formal traceability directly exposes the establishment.
Each food concept manages its recipes in its own file
Five concepts, five spreadsheets, no overall view. When management wants a consolidated report on costs or allergens, it means hours of manual data gathering.
Multiple brands, one single view.
Recipes, stock and sales from every stall centralized. You see what works, what's costly and what to adjust.
