Case Study: Taco Del Mar achieves a 3% reduction in COGs and faster inventory management with MarketMan

How A Multiple Location Operator Lowered COGs by 3% with MarketMan

Taco Del Mar, a nearly 100‑location quick‑service Mexican restaurant chain (three locations owned by Brian Scott), faced the challenges of stretched supply lines, manual spreadsheet‑based inventory and accounting, rising labor costs, food waste, and the need for real‑time multi‑location analytics. To address these issues they adopted MarketMan’s cloud‑based, tablet‑ready inventory and procurement platform.

MarketMan integrated with their POS and accounting tools (Revel, QuickBooks) and suppliers (including Performance Food Group) and provided recipe costing, easy inventory control, and streamlined ordering. As a result, Taco Del Mar cut Cost of Goods by at least 3%, reduced manager inventory time from about 1.5 hours to 20 minutes, improved data accuracy, lowered waste and overordering, and boosted location profitability and team productivity.
