Running a business is not an easy task and when it comes to running a restaurant, it is more difficult. As the restaurant service industry is growing at a very fast pace. For businesses to keep up with all the trends it is important to keep a track of all the assets in the best way possible. When all the assets are maintained and managed perfectly, it leads to a reduction in risks and an ultimate increase in profits for the business.

For those outside the grocery industry, direct store delivery (DSD) is a distribution model used by manufacturers/CPGs that entails delivering products directly to retail store shelves. This model is extremely conducive for perishable food categories. During your typical grocery shopping, you may notice that store employees these days do relatively little replenishment in the aisles.

When an organization starts to flourish the number of assets that it procures increases, and with that keeping a track of all of them becomes a task for the employees. Traditionally organizations used to keep a track of all these assets by maintaining spreadsheets, but with a major change in the way how organizations work, maintaining spreadsheets became difficult.

Maintaining a business includes several tasks that need to be done without making any mistakes. These activities are performed day to day to guarantee that everything is done in a systematic way. However, if processes are manual then things can be hectic, and chances of error is more. Most importantly there is not a great margin in restaurants, which is why saving expenses is essential for business. Hence, asset maintenance must be done regularly otherwise business will suffer.
