Home VortexERP Enterprise Restaurant & Hospitality

Run a hospitality group where every outlet adds up

A restaurant group or hotel chain is a food-cost and procurement business behind the service. VortexERP Enterprise runs the head office — a central kitchen and commissary, recipe and portion costing, purchasing across every outlet, and one consolidated ledger — while VortexPOS handles the floor and the bar.

Who it's for

Built for groups, not single outlets

Behind the pass

Food cost and buying, under control across outlets

Recipe & portion costing

Cost every dish to the portion from a recipe, so you know the margin on the plate before it leaves the kitchen — and when a supplier price moves, you see it.

Central kitchen & commissary

Produce and issue prep from one commissary to every outlet, with transfers and consumption tracked instead of guessed.

Procurement across every outlet

Buy centrally for the whole group — purchase orders, supplier terms and approvals — so outlets stop each cutting their own deals.

Stock & wastage by outlet

Multi-outlet inventory with variance and wastage reporting, so shrinkage and over-portioning show up as numbers, not a hunch.

Every tender reconciled

M-Pesa, cards and cash from every till and room folio reconciled back to sales across the group.

Payroll & rotas that feed cost

Staff cost flows into outlet profitability, so labour is measured against covers, not left off the plate.

The group view

One ledger across every outlet

Outlets are many; the accounts should be one. The system that costs the dish posts the books.

Consolidated finance & GL

Every outlet as a cost centre in one ledger — group and per-outlet profitability without waiting for month-end.

KRA eTIMS & statutory

TIMS/eTIMS invoicing on every sale, iTax-ready exports and Kenyan statutory handling in the core.

Add the floor: VortexPOS

Pair the back office with VortexPOS for tables, kitchen display, split bills and rooms — offline-proof and eTIMS-compliant at the point of service.

AI briefings & early warnings

FAQ

Questions people ask

Do we still use VortexPOS for tables and the bar?

Yes — most groups run both. VortexERP Enterprise handles the commissary, costing, group procurement and consolidated finance; VortexPOS runs tables, kitchen display, split bills, tips and the room rack at each outlet. They share one stock and sales picture.

Can it cost recipes and track food cost across outlets?

Yes. Define a recipe once and every outlet costs its dishes from it, with wastage and variance reported per outlet so food cost is managed, not estimated.

Can we see profit per outlet?

Yes. Each outlet is a cost centre, so the ledger reports revenue, food cost, labour and margin by outlet and for the group.
