Bakery POS built for the perishable problem

Unsold stock is a bakery's biggest controllable loss. F&Bos costs every recipe and batch, logs what is binned at day end with a rupee value, and shows which products carry the bakery and which need repricing.

Why it matters

Margins die on the shelf

A restaurant cooks to order; a bakery bakes in advance. Whatever is unsold at closing is a loss, so the difference between a thin and a healthy bakery margin often comes down to how closely production follows what actually sells.

F&Bos gives you the two numbers that matter: the true cost of each product from recipe and batch costing, and the rupee value of what was binned at day end. Together they tell you what to bake less of and what to reprice. See our bakery profit margins guide.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before you choose

A bakery's margin is decided between the oven and the bin. Check these in any POS.

Questions

Common questions

Can I bill by weight as well as by unit?

Yes. F&Bos bills loose items by weight and boxed or whole items by unit on the same bill. The weight is entered at the counter; weighing-scale hardware integration is not part of F&Bos today.

Does it track waste?

Yes. Unsold and discarded items are logged with a rupee value and feed your ideal vs actual variance.

Can it cost a cake recipe?

Yes. Recipes are costed to the gram, so you see the food cost percentage of every product at current ingredient prices.

Can customers order online?

Yes. Pro includes a public ordering page where customers order with phone and OTP.

What happens if the internet goes down?

F&Bos keeps billing during internet outages and syncs your data when the connection returns, so service doesn't stop mid-rush.

How much does it cost?

Basic is ₹6,000 per outlet per year, Pro ₹15,000 and Enterprise ₹15,000–24,000 per outlet for 3 or more outlets, all excluding 18% GST. See pricing.
