Food Service
Some of your products are sold to Food Service distributors or directly to restaurants, schools, institutions, or other businesses.
A Food Service business has different dynamics than retail. Different SKUs, Long-term rebates, not short-term promotions. “Operators,” not retailers. The management of this channel, however, is no less important than retail. For Food Service requirements, BluePlanner is deployed with dedicated long-term contract planning. These can be set up for a variety of planning requirements. Customer and product selections can be simplified, enabling you to- for example- apply a deal to all SKUs in a brand. Rate or percent deal entry. Volume-based deal tiers.
The major benefits of incorporating your Food Service business into BluePlanner is that because it is one platform, there will be just one place to go to understand the performance of your entire business; sales, trade spending, and margins.
