Cos'è Food Cost Calculator?

▾

A food cost calculator computes the cost of producing a recipe or menu item, and the food cost percentage relative to the selling price. Food cost percentage is the key profitability metric for restaurants — industry standard is 28–35%.

Track food cost weekly, not monthly. A 3% variance noticed quickly is fixable; the same variance found 4 weeks later has already cost thousands in profit.
