Case Study: Burrito Boyz achieves reduced labor costs and faster scheduling across 30+ locations with 7shifts

How Burrito Boyz Reduced Labor Costs and Increased Performance Across 30+ Locations

Burrito Boyz is an Ontario-based Mexican fast-casual chain with more than 30 franchisee-owned locations. As the brand scaled, corporate struggled with inconsistent labor spend, limited visibility into franchise operations, and time-consuming, ad-hoc scheduling and communication that made it hard to normalize costs and support underperforming locations.

Burrito Boyz implemented 7shifts across all locations, enabling centralized visibility, faster schedule building, and streamlined team communication. Onboarding was completed in about a month, scheduling time dropped to roughly 20% of what it was before, and franchisees using the tool consistently saw 1–2% reductions in labor cost—resulting in more efficient staffing, steadier labor percentages, and easier scaling.
