Frequently Asked Questions
What expenses are considered indirect spend for multi-unit restaurants?
Indirect spend includes the products and services that keep your restaurants running but aren’t served to guests. This can include uniforms, sanitation, pest control, waste removal, utilities, payment processing, signage, television packages, and employee benefit programs. Consolidated Concepts helps restaurant groups reduce these everyday operating costs through a network of discounted supplier programs.
How can restaurant groups reduce indirect spend costs?
Reducing indirect spend starts with understanding where your money is going and identifying opportunities to secure better pricing. Consolidated Concepts gives multi-unit restaurant operators access to more than 150 non-food savings programs and over 800 supplier relationships, helping reduce operating costs without sacrificing quality or service.
Why is indirect spend management important for restaurant profitability?
While indirect expenses may seem small on their own, they can have a significant impact across multiple locations. Managing these costs more strategically helps improve margins, reduce unnecessary spending, and free up resources to invest in other areas of the business. Consolidated Concepts helps operators uncover savings opportunities that support long-term profitability.
What are the common hidden indirect costs in restaurant operations?
Many restaurant groups unknowingly overspend on services like waste removal, utilities, uniforms, pest control, payment processing, and other operational expenses. Consolidated Concepts helps identify these hidden costs and connects operators with discounted programs that reduce expenses across both front-of-house and back-of-house operations.
Which indirect expense categories have the biggest impact on restaurant margins?
High-volume operating expenses like sanitation, waste removal, utilities, payment processing, uniforms, and employee programs can significantly affect profitability over time. Consolidated Concepts helps restaurant groups optimize these categories through preferred pricing and exclusive supplier discounts designed specifically for multi-unit operators.
How can multi-unit restaurants uncover indirect spend savings opportunities?
Many savings opportunities are hidden within the products and services restaurants already purchase. Consolidated Concepts reviews your current spending, identifies areas where you’re paying street pricing, and connects you with contracted programs that help reduce costs across more than 150 non-food categories.
How does indirect spend benchmarking help restaurant groups control costs?
Yes. Reducing indirect operating expenses can improve profitability by lowering costs that affect every location. By securing preferred pricing on everyday business services and operational programs, Consolidated Concepts helps restaurant groups strengthen financial performance while maintaining the quality of their operations.
Can indirect spend savings improve EBITDA for restaurant operators?
