01The problem

Most venues don’t have a cost problem. They have a visibility problem.

You see one number on Monday. Food cost up, someone’s in trouble. Food cost down, everyone relaxes. Both reactions are usually wrong.

That single percentage hides three different stories. The theoretical-vs-actual gap, supplier price drift, and menu mix. Each one wants something completely different from you. Cost control is learning to read them.

02What we do

What we do.

Five ways we help operators take back control of their numbers. Each card is a doorway. Start where it hurts.

01

Cost Control

Weekly variance, theoretical vs actual, prime-cost tracking. Know which lever moved and why.

02

F&B Systems

Stocktakes, par levels, ordering and recipe costing, built into a routine your team can run.

03

Menu & Pricing

Menu engineering and contribution margin. Price by the numbers, not by feel.

04

Back-Office

P&L reporting, supplier reconciliation, and the weekly close that keeps you in control.

05

Pre-Opening

Cost structure, supplier setup and a costed menu before you serve the first cover.

Stergiani Karypi
Hospitality Advisor · F&B Cost Control

I’ve run F&B cost control across 18+ venues, from invoice entry to the monthly and annual P&L. Independent since 2025.

Sixteen years in hospitality, in operations and academia. BSc Hospitality Management from the Advanced School of Tourism Education, Rhodes; MSc International Hospitality and Tourism Management, Bournemouth University. Published research on F&B leadership in luxury hotels. HACCP-certified, hands-on with ERP systems.

The aim: numbers the operator can read and act on the same week.

The Margin

A full dining room can still lose money.

Margin doesn't disappear in one place. It leaks: a portion here, a price rise there, a special that was never costed. We find every line. Then we close it.
