Sandwich

Optimize your sandwich and sub shop operations

Slicing is the bottleneck, build-to is the strategy, and bread is the close-of-shift decision that drives waste. ClearCOGS forecasts in trays, packs, and rounds (not pounds) so your team slices tomorrow’s protein today, racks the right number of breads at close, and stops over-prepping out of fear.

Our Sandwich & Sub Customers

ClearCOGS gets that sandwich operations live and die on slicing capacity, bread cut logic, and the build-to buffer that keeps the slicing cascade from turning into tomorrow’s crisis. We deliver the forecast in the unit your operator actually uses, pans of tomatoes, packs of meat, trays of bread, so the prep sheet skips the scale and staff get straight to action. But don’t just take it from us…

ClearCOGS has been a lifesaver. It breaks down hour-by-hour how much bread we should have. It’s almost dummy-proofed to where, if we follow this game plan, we shouldn’t run out of bread, but we’re not going to waste multiple trays at the end of the night either. It’s pretty crazy how its projections are right on the money.

The biggest value ClearCOGS has offered us to date is the Clear Partnership. You can feel that they want us to succeed and want us to be better. When you find partnerships like that, it’s rare. It’s someone you want to work with directly for a long time.

Our prep sheets have synced on to FreshKDS no problem and makes it much more easy to access for our staff.

It’s like turning a speedboat versus a cruise ship. I want to know if I’m having a real issue, I can just call ClearCOGS and say, ‘Hey man, help me out,’ and it’s going to happen. That’s the kind of people I tend to partner with.
