The Problem

Restaurants waste 4-10% of their food inventory. That's thousands of dollars per month going straight into the garbage, and most owners never see the number.

Without Tacoter

  • Toss spoiled cilantro every week
  • Never see a real waste dollar figure
  • Order the same amounts regardless of waste
  • Wasted ingredients pile up unnoticed

With Tacoter

  • Order cilantro in smaller, fresher batches
  • See exact monthly dollars lost to waste
  • Adjust order sizes to match actual usage
  • Get alerted before waste becomes a pattern
