01
Demand-driven multi-step plans
Plans include every prep step, from thawing to proofing to baking, so associates know what to do and when for customers to find fresh items when they want them.
02
Automated ingredient batching
When multiple items share a base or ingredient, Afresh calculates a single batch for all, so bakers prep once instead of measuring out the same ingredient recipe by recipe.
03
Coordinated store and DC decisions
Upcoming holiday cookie promo? Stores and DCs work from the same picture, so Afresh automatically increases frozen cookie orders and production plan quantities for higher demand.
1
Store Ordering
The right quantities to meet demand, every time
Afresh forecasts how many glazed donuts (plain, vanilla, chocolate) your store will sell in a day and recommends how many cases of frozen plain donuts to order.
2
Inventory Management
Always know what’s in the freezer and on the shelf
Afresh tracks in-transit and on-shelf frozen donut cases and icing ingredients—accounting for perishability, yield, and generic PLUs—so every order and production recommendation reflects what’s needed.
3
Production Planning
What to bake, what to mix, and when to start
Store teams get multi-step plans that consider thawing, baking, and glaze mixing. Plans automatically consolidate batches for ingredient preparation shared across items, like the base glaze mix, and include the most up-to-date recipe instructions.
4
Period Ending Inventory
Accurate counts with less work
Inventory models update in real time, so at the end of period, store teams see pre-populated estimates for items like frozen donut cases or powdered sugar, making period-end inventory counts faster and more accurate.
5
DC Buying
Store and DC decisions stay connected
When donuts go on promotion, upstream purchase orders for frozen plain donuts adjust automatically. The buyer’s recommendation reflects what every store actually needs, with lead times and pack constraints factored in.
