Supermarket & large retail
One product database, every department compliant
In large retail, every department has its own labelling rules: bakery, deli, produce, ready meals. CalcMenu centralises composition, allergens, shelf-life and prices so every shelf label is compliant and up to date.
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.
Thousands of products labelled every day, from allergens to best-before dates, from fresh counters to bakery.
Retail & craft
Bakeries, patisseries, cloud kitchens — print best-before/allergen labels directly from the recipe, no re-entry, HACCP-compliant.
What your teams deal with every day
Every department labels its own way
Bakery, deli and ready meals each use a different template. Allergens and shelf-life are copied by hand, with errors every time a supplier changes.
A supplier changes one ingredient — hundreds of labels go out of date
The composition of a bread, sauce or ready meal changes. Without centralised updates, departments keep displaying old allergen information.
Prices and origins don't keep up with promotions
A promotion starts Monday morning. Electronic labels and department cards aren't all replaced in time. Unhappy customers, inspection penalties.
From central kitchen to shelf, nothing gets lost.
Recipes, labels and traceability shared between production and stores. Your customers read what you prepared — and so do you.
