Reducing food costs isn't just a matter of saving money: it's a true business strategy for increasing margins, simplifying operations, and creating innovative menus. Techfood offers concrete solutions that combine creativity and cost control.
What is strategic food cost?
Strategic food cost goes beyond a simple percentage calculation: it's an indicator of efficiency, operational flexibility, and innovation capacity. It's not just about containing ingredient costs, but also about designing sustainable, high-performance, and scalable menus.
Strategic levers to reduce food costs
- Standardize portions to reduce waste and ensure consistent margins.
- High production speed , which allows on-demand supply and minimizes inventory.
Energy efficiency and cleanliness without a chimney, reducing consumption and the need for staff and technical management.
