Case Study: Papa Gino’s achieves smarter scheduling and tighter inventory control with Crunchtime

Papa Gino’s unlocks smarter scheduling and tighter inventory with Crunchtime

Papa Gino’s Pizzeria, a New England QSR with 120 locations, was dealing with clunky, manual inventory and scheduling processes that varied by store and created errors, compliance risks, and a heavy administrative burden. Papa Gino’s turned to Crunchtime for Inventory Management and Labor & Scheduling to bring consistency and better control across its operations.

Crunchtime implemented a mobile-friendly system that standardized inventory counting, vendor ordering, scheduling, and labor compliance through tools like Teamworx. The rollout was completed in three months, and Papa Gino’s reported 30–45 minutes saved per week on inventory counts, nearly a 50% reduction in scheduling time, and top performers reaching 0.6 AvT variance, while also improving labor compliance confidence and freeing managers to focus more on guests and food quality.
