Case Study: Risteriet Coffee achieves a 10% reduction in planned costs and hours delivered with Deputy

Risteriet Coffee depends on Deputy to help manage their growing business

Risteriet Coffee, a 76‑year‑old roastery with three Copenhagen shops, two roasting facilities and about 30 staff across four locations, struggled to manage schedules for a largely student, casual workforce. Relying on printed Word schedules and spreadsheets left managers with poor visibility of planned versus actual hours—an issue made more acute by Denmark’s high minimum wage and the need for precise hour tracking.

Deputy gave Risteriet a modern, mobile-friendly scheduler with reminders, employee access to rosters, and check‑in/check‑out timekeeping, plus robust reporting. The company gained accurate hours data, cut planned costs and hours by almost 10%, freed up admin time, and can now plan staff schedules well in advance as it pursues online growth and further store expansion.
