Food Service Cost Control During and After a Pandemic | Kelee Hansen, RD, Executive VP of Operations, Thomas Cuisine Management
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on occupancy, additional supply expenses, and higher than usual food inflation requires Certified Dietary Managers and Registered Dietitian Nutritionists to become even more astute financial stewards of limited resources. With this heightened awareness on food, labor and supply costs, we need to consider the following objectives:
- Determine where your system or facility wants to compete in the market from a food and culinary services perspective.
- Utilize your GPO partner(s) to maximize their value and improve your food cost and bottom line.
- Involve your entire team in identifying and implementing cost savings opportunities.
