About Ideal Stock Control
Monitoring your Cost of Sales percentage is one of the most important keys to restaurant success, as it allows you to take steps to improve the operation and ultimately improve the bottom line. From fast food to fine dining to catering to institutional foodservice, the understanding of the cause, effect and interaction of each of the above three food cost principles will play a key role in the success or failure of your operation. Shrinkage (or theft, to put it bluntly) is the enemy of profit. Shrinkage is the difference between theoretical, or perfect food cost and the actual, or real food cost. The difference between theoretical and actual in food service ranges from 2% to 15%. That is 2-15% of sales in lost profits and often the difference between a profitable food service operation and one that has closed it’s doors. Every food service operation has shrinkage.
