Right-sized operations & compliance software for food manufacturers.

 

Shrink Manager is a commercially deployed, early-stage platform used across a multi-site food operation. It reduces shrink, digitizes FSMA-required records, and automates invoicing by linking production orders directly to QuickBooks — all while we continue refining the platform for broader use.
The system is used daily by production teams, supervisors, and delivery personnel.
Now welcoming additional pilot partners and early investor conversations.

SHRINK THE COMPLEXITY

GROW YOUR OPERATION

Shrink the complexity. Grow your operation.

 

Shrink Manager began as an internal tool for a fast-growing food operation and is now in early-stage commercial deployment. We’re refining its features with real users and expanding the system so small and mid-sized producers can meet rising regulatory and retailer demands.

Rather than a heavy ERP, Shrink Manager offers a focused, evolving platform for shrink logging, production checks, delivery verification, and compliance support.

Streamline Operations & Financials Together

Most small and mid-sized food manufacturers struggle with the gap between production records and invoicing.
Shrink Manager connects production orders to automated invoicing and integrates directly with QuickBooks, reducing administrative labor and eliminating billing errors.

This integration is already live and used daily in our existing multi-site food operation.

Features

Food manufacturers are facing new expectations under FSMA’s Preventive Controls Rule (21 CFR 117) — including documented record review, verification of production logs, and audit-ready traceability.

 

Shrink Manager gives operators the essential tools they need today, while we continue expanding features with real-world feedback from multi-site use.

Operators can start with labeling or shrink logging and expand into production, delivery, and compliance modules over time.

Reduce Shrink & Improve Accuracy

Shrink Manager helps operators track shrink, expiration losses, markdowns, and at-risk SKUs. These features are actively in use and continue to evolve through real feedback from our live deployment.

Cloud-Based & Mobile-Friendly

 

Front-line teams log shrink, deliveries, and production checks from any device. Supervisors can review records instantly — supporting internal verification and FSMA-required review. Additional workflows are being refined as part of new pilot engagements.

One Platform for Your Team

Role-based access supports production, delivery, and compliance personnel. We are expanding permissions and workflow modules as we grow the platform with partner input.

Compliance & Record Review

Capabilities

Improved Sustainability

Sustainability has become an increasingly important topic, and rightly so. One of the key components of sustainability is reducing our overall environmental footprint.  Using Shrink Manager, our initial manufacturing partner is working to reduce physical transport time and food waste. Future partners will be able to adapt these tools to their own operations.

Delivery Management

Production Management

When it comes to manufacturing, efficient production scheduling is key to maximizing employee productivity. By creating production orders that are optimized for your team's workflow, you can ensure that your operations run smoothly and that your business stays on track. These capabilities are currently being refined in our initial live deployment and will be tailored to each new partner.

Invoice Management

Efficient management of delivery routes and drivers is crucial for any business that relies on transportation. By optimizing routes and schedules, you can reduce costs, improve delivery times, and increase customer satisfaction. Let us help you achieve this goal. These capabilities are being prioritized and rolled out as we grow beyond our first deployment.

Our automated invoicing system takes the hassle out of billing.  With just a few clicks, you can compile all the necessary information, produce professional invoices, and schedule them to be sent out on time.  Say goodbye to manual invoicing and hello to more time for your business. These capabilities are being prioritized and rolled out as we grow beyond our first deployment.

Business Intelligence

Analyzing sales by SKU and product on the shelf can help you maximize your shelf space, reduce waste, and improve profitability. By identifying which products are selling well and which ones are not, you can make better informed decisions about how to allocate your resources. These capabilities are being prioritized and rolled out as we grow beyond our first deployment.

Compliance & Audit Readiness

Modern food manufacturers must meet FSMA and retailer expectations for documented production, shrink, and delivery records. Shrink Manager digitizes these logs and organizes them into an audit-ready system that supports daily verification, corrective actions, and seamless preparation for third-party audits. These tools are already in use and will continue expanding for future partners.

WHAT OUR PARTNERS ARE SAYING

"Shrink Manager has transformed our multi-site operation. We eliminated one full-time operations role through automation, increased sales by an estimated 10%, and removed another FTE in accounting thanks to automated invoicing and QuickBooks integration.

 

Compliance has improved dramatically — we’re achieving near-perfect audit scores, auditors love the transparency, and production efficiency has increased with digitized food-safety records.

Deliveries are more accurate, shrink tracking is automated, and years of analytical data now guide our shelf and production decisions.”
— Operations Leader, Multi-Site Food Manufacturer
