SPOT SUPPLIER PRICE CREEP
Small increases can quietly eat into your margins.
A few cents on a case or pound may not look like much on one invoice. But when you buy the same ingredients every week, small increases compound across every order. Compare the unit price for the same item each time an invoice arrives, check that the pack size and unit are consistent, and keep a simple record of the date and supplier. Reviewing those changes regularly helps you catch price creep before it becomes a permanent hit to your food costs.
