Case Study: Bird Rock Coffee Roasters achieves efficient multi-location scheduling and payroll automation with 7shifts

How Bird Rock brews efficiency for a team of 180 with Square + 7shifts

Bird Rock Coffee Roasters, a growing coffee business with 12 locations and about 180 employees, needed a more scalable way to manage scheduling, payroll, and labor data as its outdated tech stack couldn’t keep up. The company had used separate tools that didn’t integrate well, created manual work for tip calculations, and lacked the data needed for smarter staffing decisions. Bird Rock turned to 7shifts, along with Square, to modernize operations.

7shifts helped Bird Rock automate scheduling and tip calculations, sync payroll, and give managers real-time labor and sales insights through a mobile-friendly platform. As a result, Bird Rock reduced manual errors, improved payroll accuracy, and made data-driven scheduling easier across its locations. 7shifts also improved transparency and onboarding, helping the team operate more consistently and efficiently as the business continued to grow.
