Stop guessing your food costs — know exactly what every dish costs you, spot your most profitable menu items, and scale your recipes

03/06/2026

FreedomScale on the Go,

Most food businesses don’t lose money at the end of the month.

They lose it at the till.

One missing receipt here.
One “I’ll capture it later” there.
One forgotten Makro run.
One catering expense that never makes it into your numbers.

And suddenly, you think the event made profit… but the paperwork says otherwise.

Today, while buying supplies for a catering event, I scanned my receipt before I even left the shop.

That’s the point of FreedomScale.

Capture the expense when it happens.
Track what the business actually spends.
Know your real numbers before month-end surprises you.

Food businesses need less guessing and more clarity.

From recipe to revenue.
From spending to understanding.

☕ Coffee
🥩 Braai packs

What is your CURRENT food cost %?

Do you actually know it?

👇🏾 Comment yours below:
• Under 30%

I want to see how many foodpreneurs are running the kitchen… without running the numbers. 📉🔥
