Baloo Cafe
Cost control in a café with high daily consumption
The Baloo Cafe cafeteria replaced empirical orders with structured consumption monitoring via Smart Apothiki, gaining clear cost insight and predictable variances.
Context
Baloo Cafe is a café with a constant flow of customers and a high consumption of raw materials in coffees, drinks and snacks. The operation is based on speed and volume.
The problem
Orders were placed empirically, without a clear picture of actual consumption. Deviations in coffee, milk and consumables were detected late, and the actual cost per product was not always clear to management.
The intervention
Smart Apothiki was implemented to monitor the consumption of raw materials and record stocks in real time. The flows were adapted to the cafeteria logic without burdening the daily operations of the staff.
The recording is integrated into the natural flow of the kitchen and bar, without without slowing down the service.
The result
Management has gained a clear picture of consumption and costs. Orders became predictable and deviations were immediately identified.
What has changed in operation
The cost of coffee and beverages is no longer based on taste. The decision to order and price became a given, not a gut feeling.
