About this app

As featured on Paramount Network's "Bar Rescue" Partender is a patented, subscription-based business tool with a proprietary design that empowers you to:
- Do full, physical bar inventory in just 15 minutes and with up to 99.2% accuracy
- Split up the work across as many users as you'd like on iOS, Android, and even the web
- Generate editable "Smart Orders" based on what you actually went through
- Place, track, and receive those orders online
- Get alerted when prices change
- Get your Usage (for Variance)
- Get your Actual Cost of Goods Sold (COGS for Bev Cost %)
- See what’s trending in your venue such as Top Movers and Dead Stock

And besides saving time and labor, our customers:
1) Reduce Inventory Value On-Hand by 20-40%
2) Reduce Beverage Cost by 6-8%
3) Reduce Cost of Goods Fluctuation by 10%

...all in just 90 days of weekly use after setup.

Here’s what some of them had to say:

"Inventory takes less than 15 minutes now. It used to take 2 hours with 3 people counting, for a total of 6 labor hours."
- Grant S. at Boston Pizza

“It takes us just 15 minutes to do inventory, which we do at least twice a week. We stopped running out of things, and thanks to Partender, we managed to get beverage costs down to 20% in a matter of months."
- Mike W. at Marriott

How? Why?

Because when you count your inventory as accurately and as frequently as you count the cash in your register, less disappears. And the average shrinkage in our industry is 23% because no one's counting how much is there.

So when your inventory is 10-50x more valuable than your cash register, it makes sense to count it as carefully as the till, but that's been impossible until Partender.

So throw out your paper-and-pen and homegrown spreadsheets. Do inventory in minutes - not hours. See what's selling the best/worst, what's dead stock (and needs to get phased out via happy hour promotions), and what's about to run out and get 86'd (so you never miss a sale).

Stop manually typing your inventory into Excel or a glorified web-based spreadsheet. Let Partender streamline all of your inventory, ordering, and accounting operations in just 15 minutes a week.

With Partender, you can also:
- Monitor actual depletions
- See real-time customer insights for your actual customers on a per-product or per-category basis
- Instantly receive your Value On-Hand (like a "Balance Sheet") in wholesale and retail dollars after every inventory
- Optimize your par levels (based on online graphs) to buy more of what's selling the best and less of what's selling the worst
- Clearly understand why your cost of goods is going up (due to Price Change Alerts or due to shrinkage* via our Usage / Variance Report online

*Shrinkage is the loss of inventory due to over-pouring, theft, breakage, spillage, not tracking comps, etc. And there's an average 23% shrinkage in the industry which causes 60-80% of bars and restaurants to fail within 3 years. Or let significant amounts of revenue just walk out the door.

HOW DOES PARTENDER WORK?
Build a virtual "blueprint" of your venue after organizing your bar to split up the work of inventory across Main Bar, Back Bar, Stock Room, etc. Instead of manually writing down your inventory using an arbitrary 10-point scale, cumbersome scales, or expensive hardware, simply tap where the liquor level is on the real image of the bottle and swipe to the next bottle on your shelf. That's it! Our proprietary algorithms are up to 99.2% accurate so you know down to the drop & dollar-value how much each bottle is worth in Retail & Wholesale Dollars ($).

INVENTORY ANYTHING:
In addition to liquor, you can inventory beer, wine, smallwares, kegs, and FOOD! Our database is huge. If there's something on your shelf that's not in our database: take a picture of it, and our proprietary algorithms will do the rest.

ANALYTICS IN THE CLOUD:
Just log into your web dashboard to see COGS, beautiful graphs & trends of what customers are drinking in real-time.

Been in the industry 30 yrs, including 12 Hotel & D Concourse at ATL, doing it all from bartending to inventory. Used to the old school inventory until we got Partender at AMEX (I know they used it at STK too). I just learned how to use it in 90 SECONDS. Anyone can do it. So simple/quick. Love the organization. The app gets your team able to find bottles and serve guests, especially with efficiency & speed. Makes inventory and training a breeze, plus we're ordering smarter now. Game changer 💥

For someone like me who isn't very tech savvy, setting up my bar on Partender was so easy! I was hesitant to transition to something new after decades of paper/pen/Excel. But realizing how much dead stock we were stuck w/ during Covid closures made us realize how much we were overordering! Partender not only saved us time spent during inventory, it also increased our bottomline by 8% within a few months! The customer service rep, Alexa, was so friendly & truly excited about helping us succeed!

We have had an excellent experience working with Partender. We use Partender to efficiently and effectively count our entire beverage inventory. The app is extremely easy to use, easy to personalize, and they are very responsive if we have any questions. We save hours every week counting inventory so we can focus on the bigger picture of our program and better guest experience. What used to be 10+ hours are now much shorter and I know my team is extremely happy to have this time back.
