The Stock Playbook driving the best hospitality businesses

Almost all hospitality venues are unknowingly losing tens of thousands in bottom line profit through poor stock management. The successful ones have figured out how to turn stock control from a daily headache into a genuine money making machine. In this guide, we show you exactly how they do it - sharing the battle-tested systems that separate venues that last from those that don't. No theory, no fluff - just practical solutions that actually work in the real world.

What’s inside?

A 21-page guide that reveals how successful hospitality venues master their stock management. Inside, you'll learn:

  1. How to buy better - from tendering your top items to creating inwards goods systems that actually work in the real world.
  2. How to manage your stock right - including the exact systems that separate struggling venues from those built to last.
  3. How to sell smarter and protect your margins - from pricing strategies that work to turning your team's focus from covers to profit.

Getting stock management right in our 12 venues helped us:

  • Cut our stock costs by 8% across the group - the profit equivalent of what you'd spend on a new bar fit-out every year
  • Catch and fix margin erosion before it hurt us (like when small price increases quietly pushed one item from 21.6% to 27.4% COGS).
  • Get our whole team focused on profit, not just sales volumes.
MEET THE AUTHOR

I'm Rich McLeod, 
CEO at Loaded.

15 years ago my business partner James and I built Loaded to run our own 12 bars, pubs and restaurants. We were tired of not being able to consistently run every venue in the group with full visibility and tools for managing our key financial levers. When we finally made that visibility happen, the results were dramatic. I’m confident we can help make that same impact on your group, too.

“Ever since we introduced Loaded into our business our gross profit has just got better and better.”
