A fast-growing café chain had inconsistent presentation and costs because each branch bought equipment from different suppliers. We created one equipment list for all branches and centralised purchasing.
Scope
- One porcelain series for cups, plates and serveware, with a 2-year guarantee of replacements from the same series
- Commercial-grade filter coffee machines, blenders and toasters
- An opening kit for every branch and an automatic monthly replenishment order
Result
Equipment costs fell by 22% per branch per year, and equipment preparation for new branch openings dropped from 3 weeks to 5 business days.
