The problem

Your inventory software isn't broken. Your setup is.

You bought the software for a reason: to control food costs, track variance, and stop guessing about your numbers. Most operators we talk to are paying for it every month and still flying blind.

That's a setup problem, not a software problem. And it's exactly what we fix.

  • Duplicate items from multiple suppliers, none of them cleaned up.
  • Categories are missing, inconsistent, or just plain wrong.
  • Recipes never went in, or went in with the wrong units.
  • COGS report doesn't calculate, or calculates wrong.
  • Your team gave up on it months ago. It runs anyway, costing you.

What done right looks like.

A real client account, after we set it up end to end. Clean items, every category and storage area in place, recipes costed, and a COGS report you can actually trust.

In their words
“For us, it has genuinely been a game changer. Having The Stockroom One handle this work rather than trying to undertake such a detailed project in-house has saved us an enormous amount of time, while giving us confidence that our system is being set up properly by a team that clearly understands both the software and the operational side of the hospitality business.”

Why us

Specialists, not generalists.

We've seen it before.

Hundreds of inventory systems. The same patterns of mess. We know exactly what's broken in yours. We have the playbook to fix it.

One thing, done well.

We don't do bookkeeping, payroll, scheduling, or general VA work. We do inventory setup. That focus is why we're faster and better than the alternatives.

Built around results.

Every project starts with baseline numbers and ends with proof of what changed. Food cost %, hours saved, reports that actually work.

A team small enough to care, specialized enough to deliver.

We cap at five setups a month so every client gets the attention they paid for. You'll always know exactly who's working on your account.

FAQ

Good questions. Straight answers.

What software do you work with?
We specialize in MarketMan. For other platforms (MarginEdge, Craftable, Toast Inventory, and others), we get trained on your system before the project starts. You're never paying for our learning curve.
Are you affiliated with MarketMan or any software company?
No. We're an independent service that specializes in the platform, not part of the company behind it. We work inside your own account, so you see every change we make, and everything we build stays yours.
What do you need from us to get started?
Access to your inventory system, a list of your current suppliers, and about 30 minutes for a kickoff call. We'll send a pre-engagement checklist so nothing gets missed before we begin.
How long does setup take?
Standard Setup: 2 weeks. Advanced Setup: 4 weeks. The clock starts once we have your system access and your checklist is complete. Not when you sign.
What happens after the setup is done?
You get a full walkthrough of everything we built and what your reports now show. Most clients move to Managed Monthly at this point so the system stays clean as your menu, staff, and suppliers evolve.
Do you sign an NDA?
Yes, always. We sign a confidentiality agreement before we touch anything in your system. Included with every engagement, no extra charge, no exceptions.
Why pay you on top of my software subscription?
The software is the tool. We're the team that makes it work. Your subscription gives you the platform. We clean the data, build the recipes, and set up the reports so the number it gives you is finally right. A report you can't trust costs you more than the fee, in food cost you never see.
My item list is a mess. Is it too late?
A messy account is where we do our best work. The more duplicated, mispriced, and uncategorized it is, the more we find. We've turned lists with the same item entered eight different ways into a clean catalog with reports that actually calculate.
