Replace spreadsheets and disconnected tools with the operating system for fresh food production.
The platform powering the next generation of institutional food production — traceability, shrink analytics, and invoicing in one system deployed in weeks, not months.

Shrink Manager was developed inside Anu Sushi LLC — a multi-site institutional food manufacturer supplying hospitals, universities, and corporate dining through Sodexo and Aramark. The founders didn't theorize. They ran the operation that exposed every gap this platform fills.
Shrink Manager is purpose-built for institutional fresh food manufacturers — operators producing high-volume, perishable product for managed dining accounts.
Manual processes and disconnected tools create compliance exposure, invisible waste, and labor hours spent on paper instead of production.
No features added to sell demos. Built from 2+ years of live production use across 10 facilities — only what actually matters on the floor.
Shrink Manager begins with compliance and production operations, then expands across the entire institutional food supply chain. The long-term opportunity is to become the operating system connecting production kitchens, distributors, and institutional buyers through a unified platform.
Every phase builds on the data captured in the previous one. The operational data Shrink Manager collects today becomes the intelligence layer of tomorrow's platform — and the network effects that make the category defensible.
FSMA 204 enforcement begins July 20, 2028. Institutional buyers will require supplier compliance 12–18 months before that. The window to act is now.
* Timeline reflects latest FDA guidance and Congressional directive (Continuing Appropriations Act of 2026) — enforcement no earlier than July 20, 2028.
Compliance happens automatically, as a byproduct of normal operations. No extra steps. No dedicated staff. No retroactive documentation.
Measured across 2+ years of deployment at 10 production sites serving 150+ institutional partners.
Three converging segments — all running on spreadsheets, all facing FSMA 204, all underserved by existing software. Shrink Manager is the first platform purpose-built for all three.
Four converging forces are creating a narrow window for the infrastructure layer of institutional fresh food to be defined — and owned.
Shrink analytics and FSMA compliance run continuously across every production step — captured automatically, not entered manually.
Shrink Manager began as a solution for operational shrink and FSMA traceability. But the data layer created by daily production events unlocks a much larger platform opportunity.
Raising a late pre-seed round to accelerate FSMA 204 compliance form completion, enterprise sales, and customer acquisition ahead of the 2028 enforcement wave. Full terms available to accredited investors upon request.
No theorizing. The founders ran the operation that needed this platform. Every feature exists because someone on this team needed it at 2am in a production kitchen.
Whether you're an operator who needs compliance and cost visibility, or an investor looking for the infrastructure play in institutional food — let's talk.
