Expiry & Markdown Engine

Internal tool · built by Tablebond

One tap turns the ledger into printed shelf labels and a staff checklist for the evening walk.

Where the shrink was going

  • Chilled dairy binned past date$410/mo before
  • Bakery end-of-day waste$290/mo before
  • Deli short-dated write-offs$180/mo before

A 40% markdown that sells beats a 100% write-off that does not. The engine prices to clear, category by category.
