Case Study: The Pudding Pantry reduces labour and COGS with Tenzo

The Pudding Pantry reduces labour costs by 3% and COGS by 2% with Tenzo

The Pudding Pantry, a three-site brunch and dessert restaurant group in Nottingham, faced a challenge with visibility after a tech overhaul left them with disconnected systems for scheduling, stock control, and POS. This made it difficult to get a unified view of their business performance. They implemented the restaurant analytics platform from Tenzo to bring all of their data into a single, usable place.

Using Tenzo, the team was able to create custom metrics and forecasts, leading to highly informed decisions on pricing and labor. The solution delivered a tangible impact, including a 3 percentage point reduction in labor costs and a 2 percentage point improvement in cost of goods sold, from 30% to 28% of turnover. Tenzo also enabled highly accurate payroll forecasting and provided the data needed for successful supplier negotiations.
