Case Study: Eataly achieves accurate cost tracking and streamlined procurement with Fourth

Eataly - Customer Case Study

Eataly is a global Italian marketplace of restaurants, counters, a bakery, retail and a cooking school, with nearly 40 stores worldwide. Faced with the complexity of running dozens of distinct revenue centres under one roof, Eataly struggled to track purchase orders and allocate costs accurately and in a timely way, which made closing the books and managing profitability across outlets difficult.

Eataly implemented Fourth’s purchase-to-pay and inventory solution to centralize purchasing and inventory data. The platform delivered accurate weekly COGS down to individual menu items, cross-department cost tracking, ordering templates and tighter control of outlet ordering, plus faster book closes and easier P&L and COGS analysis—helping the business become more cost-effective and free up resources to focus on quality.
