Twenty minutes. That's how long it takes Anja Skjævestad each week to manage recipe adjustments and menu updates to keep costs according to plan across six Heim Gastropub locations.

As Chief F&B Officer for Heim Group—part of the EIK&Friends restaurant group—Anja oversees their six locations across Norway. Each venue has its own character tied to its city, but maintaining consistent food and beverage standards across them all used to require far more than 20 minutes of her time.

Coordinating recipe updates across multiple sites used to require equal parts vigilance and detective work. Whenever ingredient prices shifted, they first had to notice it: supplier updates or cost deviations buried in invoices, and then manually adjust every affected recipe to keep Cost% calculations accurate.

Before Stockifi, a single supplier increase on a core ingredient or a simple over-plating could quietly throw the entire month off. And uncovering the cause felt like searching for a needle in a very large haystack. Now those same tasks happen automatically in the background. Price changes are flagged instantly, recipes are updated with real costs, ingredient usage is tracked down to the last gram, and understanding why a location's margins have drifted no longer requires an investigation. Today, the work that once took hours happens during Anja's coffee break.

Stockifi changed the math. "By spending just 20 minutes a week on Stockifi, I can adjust our recipes and update all new sales articles across our 6 locations," Anja explains. One update pushes to all six sites simultaneously. Recipe adjustments happen once and apply everywhere. New sales articles get added to the system and immediately become available across the entire Heim network.

The system doesn't just save time. It removes the mental overhead of wondering whether all locations are working from the same playbook. "It's so simple and keeps everything in order with minimal time spent," Anja says. For someone overseeing food and beverage across multiple venues, that simplicity matters as much as the time savings.
