NutraSoft software for Catering & Commissary

The challenges you're up against

The day-to-day realities NutraSoft is built to take off your plate.

Event volumes swing, prep planning doesn't

A 600-cover gala one week, a dozen daily lunch drops the next. Scaling recipes by hand and guessing prep quantities means over-purchasing, last-minute shortages, and exhausted line cooks. You need production volumes that flex with the order book.

Recipe costs drift and margins disappear

When ingredient prices move and you cost menus on stale spreadsheets, your per-plate and per-event quotes go underwater without anyone noticing. Yield and trim loss on a central-kitchen batch are real costs that hand-built sheets rarely capture.

One kitchen feeds many outlets and clients

A commissary produces for satellite locations, food trucks, corporate accounts, and retail at once. Splitting shared inventory, fulfilling each order accurately, and proving which lot went to which client during an audit or recall is nearly impossible on paper.

How NutraSoft helps

Built for Catering & Commissary

Production planning that scales with the order book

Production planning that scales with the order book

Convert confirmed catering events and recurring wholesale orders into a dated production schedule. Scale recipes to the head count, batch-size the central-kitchen run, and generate the ingredient pick list automatically.

Recipe & formula costing with yield and loss

Recipe & formula costing with yield and loss

Build recipes with full BOM, yield, and loss factors, then see live batch cost and margin per plate or per case. When supplier prices change, your menu and quote costs update so you stop quoting events at a loss.

Commissary inventory and order fulfillment

Commissary inventory and order fulfillment

Track ingredients and finished prep across multiple locations with FEFO rotation, shelf-life and expiry control, and barcode scanning. Manage sales orders for each outlet, client, and account, and fulfill them from one shared stock pool.

Recall-ready traceability and food safety

Recall-ready traceability and food safety

Capture lot and batch records backward and forward, so you can prove exactly which raw lot went into which event or client order. HACCP, SQF, and FSMA 204 documentation and QC logging are built in for CFIA and FDA inspections.

Trial simulation

Open a sample commissary day

Your 14-day trial loads with a worked catering and commissary example: a costed entree recipe, a received ingredient lot, and a multi-outlet production day with two confirmed event orders. Open it and run the real workflow before you enter any of your own data.

Start Free Trial
  • Scale the sample entree recipe from 50 to 300 covers and watch the ingredient requirements and batch cost recalculate
  • Build the production plan for the day from two confirmed orders and generate the kitchen pick list
  • Fulfill each outlet order from shared commissary stock using FEFO and see inventory draw down
  • Trace the finished batch back to its received ingredient lot for a mock recall

Audit-ready compliance, built in

Frequently asked questions

Can NutraSoft scale a recipe for a large event and cost it accurately?
Yes. Recipes are built with a full bill of materials plus yield and loss factors, so you can scale a single dish from a tasting portion to a 600-cover event in one step. NutraSoft recalculates ingredient quantities and shows live batch cost and per-plate margin, so your event quotes reflect real food cost rather than a stale spreadsheet estimate.
How does NutraSoft handle a commissary that produces for several outlets and clients?
Commissary inventory is managed across multiple locations from one shared stock pool, with FEFO rotation and expiry control on both ingredients and finished prep. You create sales orders for each satellite location, food truck, or corporate account and fulfill them against that shared stock, while lot traceability records exactly which batch went to each client.
If there's a recall or a CFIA or FDA audit, can we prove what went where?
Yes. NutraSoft captures lot and batch traceability backward and forward: from a received ingredient lot you can find every production batch and customer order it touched, and from a delivered order you can trace back to the raw lots. HACCP, SQF, and FSMA 204 documentation and quality-control logging are built in, so recall reporting and inspections are fast for both CFIA and FDA.
