On May 8 and 9 we celebrated the III #SummitGstock, our most special event of the year, which we finally recovered after the pandemic. We gathered 70 customers with whom we had the opportunity to share impressions and listen to their ideas and requests for Gstock. We had 10 hours of exhaustive and detailed training by our CEO, Federico Fritzsch.

Federico shared with our customers his vision of managing a food and beverage business, based on his extensive experience in operations and consulting and in the development of Gstock. He also explained the ins and outs of the tool's operation, enriched with his advice on the use and management of raw materials. A real luxury.

New developments in digital management for the hospitality industry shared at the III Summit Gstock

  1. Simplifying the digitalization of the delivery note is key to improve efficiency in the relationship with suppliers and make it digital. At Gstock we work to facilitate the digitization of the delivery note, so we have designed a single digital entry door for the delivery note, regardless of the system through which it has been digitized. At the Summit we presented two key integrations in this sense: with Voxel and its universal translator of delivery notes to digital format and with Docunecta and its delivery note digitization system that combines OCR technology with AI and Machine Learning.
  2. We have also presented two integrations with two accounting ERP's, ALFA MICROGES SA and RCX SOFT.ALFA MICROGES SA and RCX SOFT, both designed to complete that part of the digital highway of your business that has to do with accounting. Keeping the whole system connected includes the last step, which is precisely accounting. The greater and more fluid the coordinationthe better for the profitability of your business.
  3. In matters of to the health and hygiene regulations, we have introduced we have introduced our new labeling functionality. It allows you to improve the control of the raw material, as well as the traceability and food safety of your recipes, sub-recipes (semi-processed and pre-preparations) and any element related to the order book. This functionality is possible thanks to the integration with ELDER LABORATORIO. In addition, in Gstock we are expanding fields in order to offer the information that Elder works with and that your labeling can be as accurate as possible. so that your labeling can be as complete as possible..
  4. The inventory tool that we have developed at Gstock - and that we continue to improve - allows you to control stock and automate inventory management in real time. It configures the minimum and ideal stock, detects the efficient rotation and reduces up to 80% the time to make inventories. Customize permissions and work on multiple devices. In addition, our inventory comparison tool allows you to check the evolution by month and detect variations that need to be investigated and clarified.
  5. Gstock is designed to facilitate the work of cooks, that's why we have put a lot of effortThat's why we have put a lot of effort into our recipe tool, which allows you to use Gstock as a notebook and a laboratory. In addition, once you set up a recipe it will show the latest prices of the products you use in it, so you can adjust the actual price range. This is a very useful tool, as this kind of information is much more expensive to enter in excel. Our recipe tool is a help for the cook in the operational and training part for his team, as it helps the dissemination among the staff (who can even see the step by step). Of course, a good configuration from the beginning is essential for it to work properly.
  6. The reports are the key tool to keep your food and beverage business under control and at Gstock we take them very seriously. That's why we are continuously improving our reporting functionality and at the Summit we presented our latest innovations. We highlight the new redesigned report of errors in product output..
