The challenge
Have A Roll grew to ten stores across Belgium and the Netherlands, with drivers, bakers, store managers and back-office staff who all need to stay in sync. Counting stock, requesting deliveries, tracking production and reporting sales happened largely by hand, through messages and lists. That cost time every day and made mistakes and shortages hard to spot.
What Manaaft built
- Daily stock counts per store that automatically create a delivery request based on required stock levels.
- A guided flow for drivers: pick-up per location and batch, temperature logging on delivery, receipt confirmation in the store.
- Differences between delivered and received goods that automatically show up as attention items for managers.
- Production batches with traceability of ingredients, lot numbers and best-before dates, plus a recipe library.
- End-of-day reports per store and warehouse, with Shopify sales per location integrated automatically.
- Roles and permissions per type of employee, shared tablets with trusted devices, invoicing per company and an audit log.
The outcome
- One source of truth for stock, production and deliveries across ten stores.
- Delivery requests and reports that build themselves instead of being assembled by hand.
- Full traceability from ingredient to store, important for food safety.
