How The Waters Senior Living used eMenuChoice to Control Costs

Food costs can be a significant challenge for senior living communities, especially during times of rising expenses. However, Kari Stolz, an eMenuCHOICE customer and VP of Dining at The Waters community has found a solution through our innovative dining software. The Waters uses eMenuCHOICE at all 13 of their locations, and Kari says it has helped her effectively manage food costs and maintain profitability.

One of the key ways eMenuCHOICE has been beneficial for Kari is by addressing declining balance and point systems. These traditional methods of tracking resident meal expenses can often lead to overspending and budgetary challenges. With eMenuCHOICE, Kari is able to set meal allotments for residents, ensuring that they stay within budget while still enjoying delicious and nutritious meals.

Additionally, eMenuCHOICE makes it easy for Kari to make pricing adjustments as needed. This level of flexibility allows her to respond quickly to changing food costs and market conditions, ultimately helping to maintain profitability for The Waters community.

One of the most valuable features of eMenuCHOICE for Kari is the detailed reports it provides on which items are selling well and which ones are not. This data-driven approach allows her to make informed decisions about menu offerings, ensuring that she is maximizing revenue and minimizing waste.

In a recent blog post on Senior Dining News, Kari shared her strategies for controlling food costs amid rising expenses. She emphasized the importance of using technology, like eMenuCHOICE, to streamline operations and improve efficiency. By leveraging our software, Kari has been able to navigate the challenges of rising food costs and maintain profitability for The Waters community.

Overall, eMenuCHOICE has proven to be a valuable tool for Kari Stolz and The Waters community in controlling food costs during these challenging times. With its ability to address declining balance & point systems, meal allotments, easy pricing adjustments, and detailed reporting features, eMenuCHOICE has empowered Kari to make data-driven decisions and stay ahead of the curve in managing food costs.
