Partender, currently featured on Paramount Network's "Bar Rescue" with Jon Taffer, reduces the time it takes owners & managers to do bar inventory from a frustrating 6-24 hours to 15 minutes. We do this by digitizing the crazy, archaic paper-pen-clipboard process into a few taps and swipes on any Android, iOS, or web-enabled device. As a result, you can inventory as often as you count the cash in the register - reducing the 23% industry shrinkage, ordering smarter, and creating more successful beverage programs. In just 90 days of weekly use, Partender’s 15,000+ clients experience: • 6-8% Increased Profitability to your Beverage Program • 10-20% Reduction in Cost of Goods Fluctuation • 20-40% Reduction in Value On-Hand After every inventory, Partender instantly emails you a full inventory report and your Purchase Orders, which you can now send straight to your rep via Partender's portal. Cloud-based data analytics online show you what's selling the best/worst, what your dead stock is, and what you're low on, so you never run dry and miss a sale.
