Get your spend
under control.
Margin rarely disappears in one fell swoop. It happens gradually: a supplier price that crept up between order and invoice, a delivery that didn’t match the PO.
Join Hops and our partner Lightyear, AI-powered AP automation, for a Lunch & Learn on how to get that control back.
What we’ll cover
- Where spend slips through in multi-site and high-volume operations
- What changes once your POs are properly managed
- The real cost of running purchasing and finance on two different numbers
- A live demo of Hops and Lightyear working together
- How 180 The Strand, a client of both Hops and Lightyear, runs the two together
Bring your questions. There will be a Q&A at the end!
Who’s it for?
Multi-site operators and restaurant groups
Purchasing across several kitchens and suppliers, where a price change or short delivery is easy to miss.
Finance and operations teams
Anyone who ends up chasing mismatches between what was ordered, what was delivered and what was invoiced.
Join us over lunch.
