Know your stock. Save your margins.
Nivala inventory management connects your menu to your kitchen stores. Every order automatically deducts the right ingredients, so you always know exactly what you have, what you need, and what's going to waste.
Complete control over your kitchen inventory
From raw material tracking to vendor management, Nivala gives you full visibility and control over every ingredient.
Recipe Auto-Deduction
Map recipes to every menu item with exact ingredient quantities. When a dish is ordered, Nivala automatically deducts the raw materials from your stock — no manual entries needed.
Low-Stock Alerts
Set minimum stock levels for every ingredient. Nivala sends real-time alerts on your dashboard, via email, or through WhatsApp when stocks fall below the threshold — so you never run out mid-service.
Purchase Order Management
Create and send purchase orders to vendors directly from Nivala. Track deliveries, compare prices across suppliers, and maintain a full purchase history for every ingredient.
Wastage Tracking
Record daily wastage by category — spoilage, over-preparation, returns. Nivala generates wastage reports so you can identify patterns, reduce waste, and protect your food cost percentage.
Multi-Outlet Transfers
Running multiple locations? Transfer stock between outlets with full tracking and approval workflows. Central kitchen to branch, or branch to branch — every transfer is logged and reconciled.
Variance & Consumption Reports
Compare theoretical consumption (what should have been used based on sales) with actual consumption. Identify discrepancies, prevent pilferage, and optimize your food cost ratio.
