Efficiency redefined: L'Osteria relies on BarBrain for quick and easy inventories
L'Osteria is a restaurant chain that operates throughout Europe and is known for its top-quality pizza and pasta. In Munich, where Appo works as operations manager, the monthly inventory was a major stress factor for the team for a long time. Every drink, every dish and even cutlery and packaging material had to be meticulously recorded. This manual work took a lot of time and often lasted well into the night.
"Stocktaking is always due at the end of the month, and of course nobody looks forward to it because it's simply very time-consuming and no fun," explains Appo. The manual recording of stock levels using Excel spreadsheets and clipboards was a huge burden for the entire team. The extensive list of items that had to be recorded made the process tedious and frustrating.
The introduction of BarBrain in all L'Osteria stores has fundamentally changed the inventory process. The app has drastically reduced the manual effort and significantly accelerated the entire process. "Since we've had BarBrain, stocktaking has become much easier," says Appo. The team no longer has to print out Excel spreadsheets or run around the warehouse - everything is recorded directly on the smartphone.
One major advantage is that the L'Osteria team can now count the stock simultaneously in pairs, threes or even fours. All data is synchronized in real time and automatically merged in an Excel spreadsheet, which saves an enormous amount of time.
BarBrain has made day-to-day work in the L'Osteria restaurants much easier. "We save at least two to three hours per inventory," reports Appo. The app is not only quick and easy to use, but also makes the process more pleasant for employees. "Stocktaking used to be a tedious task, but now employees almost enjoy doing it because it's super quick and no longer stressful," he adds.
BarBrain has revolutionized the inventory process for the entire L'Osteria chain. With an app that works quickly, easily and efficiently, both time and resources have been saved. Automation has not only increased efficiency, but has also improved the team's motivation enormously. What used to be an unloved task is now a simple routine that can be integrated into the daily work routine.
