Ember & Oak Restaurant Group
Staff scheduling, POS, and supplier orders — finally in one place
“We were spending more time managing our software than managing our restaurants. Mewayz gave us one dashboard for all three locations — scheduling, procurement, and menus.”— James Okafor, Operations Manager, Ember & Oak Restaurant Group
The Challenge
Ember & Oak was using Deputy for shift scheduling ($160/mo), a separate POS system, a manual procurement spreadsheet, and Square Online for takeaway menus. Managers at each location logged into different systems every day. Payroll took 6 hours per two-week cycle to reconcile across three locations.
The Solution
The group activated Mewayz's Rotas (shift scheduling), Procurement, Restaurant Menu, HR Management, and EcomStore (for online orders) modules. All three locations run under one Mewayz company account with location-level access permissions. Payroll now pulls directly from approved timesheets.
The Results
Payroll cycle reduced from 6 hours to under 45 minutes. Staff scheduling conflicts dropped significantly with the real-time Rotas system. Online order revenue increased 28% after migrating from Square to the Mewayz online store (with lower transaction fees). Monthly software costs dropped from $610 to $149.
