Tibersoft's extensive track record implementing food cost and spend management systems for chain operators makes us uniquely qualified to bridge the information gap between Manufacturers and Operators.

Tibersoft's Trading Partner View program has already established daily sales visibility of branded product across many dozens of chains and their Manufacturers suppliers.

Although Tibersoft can't acquire sales data that your Operator customer won't share, that is rarely the case. More often, the contract and the contract execution process needs to be modified specifically to create a closed financial loop between you and your customer. Let us show you how.

Selling branded product to foodservice chains profitably is hard because the sales visibility is poor.

Indirect sales data is old, disorganized, high level, and incomplete. All your trading partners call your products and name locations (DC, Operator Locations) differently.

For Sales these issues reduce over customer responsiveness and profitability.

Distributor negotiations are not fully informed particularly around the issue of how much volume went to the chains versus the street.

Inability to spot compliance gaps and sales voids

For Finance, the same data issues create a different set of challenges:

Trade payments for branded business are not auditable and result in bloated trade spend.
Trade spend accruals are conservatively high

Customer level P&Ls are very labor intensive to calculate
