Production for more than one outlet
Central kitchen software for batches, indents and supply
Central kitchen software for the kitchen that cooks for your outlets: it produces in batches, works to the outlets’ indents and never sells to a guest. Production and indents come with the Group plan.

02In detail
What does a central kitchen need that a restaurant till does not?
It does not sell. It cooks in batches for other kitchens, answers their requests instead of guests’ orders, and has to know the cost of things no guest ever buys, such as a vat of gravy or a tray of marinade. A till has none of those ideas in it.
So CountStand gives the hub its own: production recipes, batches with their yield and cost variance, wastage recorded apart from the outlets’, and indents. It refuses a sale, too: the database will not take an order placed against a central kitchen.
Can I use it today?
Yes, on Group, by invitation. The hub has work to do only when there are outlets to supply, so its screens stay hidden for a single outlet.
Group is ₹7,999 a month per outlet, or ₹6,799 a month paid yearly (₹81,590 a year), plus GST. Apply with the kitchen and the outlets it supplies, and we reply within two working days.

A request from an outlet to the hub for the stock it needs. The hub fulfils it or cancels it, and the request stays on record either way.
From its production recipe. A batch uses raw stock and yields prepared stock, and the cost is captured in paise, with the yield and cost variance against the recipe recorded beside it.
No. It is for a group whose kitchens are supplied from one hub. A single cloud kitchen runs on the till and the kitchen display, which are in every plan.
