The challenge

The chain was managing inventory through 8 separate outlet POS systems with no central visibility. Waste varied wildly (8-18% per outlet) and customer loyalty was a paper-stamp card. Manual back-office work consumed ~30 hours/week of management time.

The approach

Three-phase 9-month roll-out: (1) Deploy PSG-funded AI inventory tool at all 8 outlets + AI loyalty platform replacing paper cards. (2) EDG-funded custom CDP unifying POS + loyalty + online ordering data. (3) CTC-funded training programme retraining outlet managers and kitchen leads on AI-driven daily ops review.

The outcome

Within 90 days post-deployment: food waste dropped 24% chain-wide, customer reactivation campaigns brought back 18% of lapsed customers, and management saved ~18 hours/week. Effective grant subsidy: 56% of total project cost.
