A supplier changes a price. Your recipes, menus and event margins change with it.

Accept the new price once and it travels the whole way: the ingredient, every recipe that uses it, every set menu those dishes sit on, and the margin on every event you have not run yet.

Every supplier, every price list and every pack in one place, with what each one actually costs you once the packs are levelled. Accept a price change and it flows straight through to your dish costs, your menu margins and every event you have not run yet.

The problem this solves

A supplier raises a price and you find out what it cost you at year end. Which of your menus are underpriced right now? Answering that by hand is an afternoon with a spreadsheet, so nobody does it and the margin leaks quietly all year. Havenue re-costs every recipe and menu the moment you accept the new price, and shows you which menus moved.

How it works

  1. Tell Havenue how each supplier works: How they take orders, when they cut off, how long they take to deliver and what they need you to spend. Every order Havenue writes from then on already fits, so nothing comes back rejected.
  2. Get the price list in: Import their price list, or let it build itself from the bills you already scan. Either way you end up with what every supplier charges, kept current without anyone maintaining it.
  3. Link their products to your ingredients: Havenue proposes the matches and you confirm them, so ordering, receiving and costing all agree on what a product is. Anything it is unsure about waits for you instead of guessing.
  4. Nothing changes your costs without you: A new price waits for a person. Accept it, accept anything inside a range you set, or leave it and call the supplier. Your margins never move behind your back.

Match a product to an ingredient without leaving the shelf

Standing at the shelf, open the supplier catalog on your phone and confirm what a product is. From that moment it drives your suggested orders, your receiving and your cost review, with no trip back to the office.

Prices update as suppliers send them, so the catalog your team orders from is the one you are actually being charged.

What you get

  • One answer to "who supplies this?": A supplier link means one thing: a confirmed match to a product in their catalog. Ordering, receiving and costing all read the same answer.
  • Price history, and the shape of the move: A price that crept up and a price that spiked and came back look identical as a percentage. Havenue shows you which one it was.
  • Every price change, with a name against it: Who accepted a new price, and when, is on the record. A margin conversation stops being a guess about what changed back in March.
  • Top-up levels you can actually set: Each row shows what is on the shelf, what is on order, what your bookings need, and what a top-up level of that size comes to in whole supplier packs.
