Multi-location & franchise

One back office for every branch

Set the menu once and let each branch adjust what it needs. Move stock from your central kitchen, compare branches side by side, and give every manager exactly the access they should have.

Multi-location & franchise

One menu, one set of recipes and one login for the whole group. Branches keep the freedom to set their own prices; head office keeps the full picture.

The challenge

Growth multiplies every small problem

What works for one restaurant breaks at five. Menus drift, stock goes missing between sites, and head office waits days for numbers.

01

Menus that drift apart

Each branch edits its own menu. Prices, recipes and names stop matching, and a promotion means updating every till by hand.

02

Stock between sites

The central kitchen sends sauces and dough to branches, but nobody records it properly, so food cost per branch is a guess.

03

Reports by spreadsheet

Branch managers email their end-of-day figures. Comparing branches means copying numbers into a spreadsheet every week.

04

Too much access, or too little

Either every manager can change everything, or head office has to make every small change itself.

How DineBills helps

Head office owns the brand. Branches run the day. DineBills gives each the tools they need.

Frequently asked questions

Still curious? Talk to our team.

Can each branch have different prices?

Yes. The menu is managed centrally, and each branch can override price and availability per item. You can also price by channel, so delivery and dine-in can differ.

How do stock transfers from a central kitchen work?

Record a transfer from the central kitchen location to a branch location. Stock moves between them in the ledger, so each branch carries the cost of what it actually received and used.

Can franchisees see only their own branches?

Yes. Users get a role and a list of branches they can access. A franchisee sees their own branches; head office sees the whole group.

Do you produce royalty reports?

Royalty and fee reports are calculated from each branch’s net sales for the period, so franchise fees are based on the same numbers both sides can see.

How quickly can we open a new branch on DineBills?

Copy the menu and settings from an existing branch, adjust prices and printers, pair the new tills and you are ready. Our team can help with setup.
