Craftable Procurement Services
Stop leaving 12% on the table.
Most hospitality operators are overpaying for food, beverage, and supplies — and don't know it. Craftable Procurement Services fixes that, at no cost to you.
Why It Exists
Let chefs be chefs!
Chefs have a rare kind of talent—one that deserves the space to actually breathe and grow. But they’re also carrying the weight of running a business inside the kitchen. And every time we pull them away from that, we’re not just interrupting their flow—we’re pulling focus from the operation and, ultimately, from the guest experience.
Craftable Procurement Services brings dedicated expertise back into the role — without the payroll expense. We work from your Craftable data to identify what you're overpaying for, where the leverage is, and how to get there.
The result? Chefs back in the kitchen. Operators focused on guests. And a purchasing operation that actually runs like one.

Process
From first call to first savings
in weeks, not months.
We do the heavy lifting. You review and approve.
We review your Craftable data
Using your consolidated purchase reports and descending dollar reports, we map your spend, identify your top vendors, flag pricing inconsistencies, and spot where you're leaving money behind.
You get an Opportunity Report
A plain-language breakdown of where the savings are, what they're worth, and what it takes to capture them. No fluff, no jargon — just the numbers.
We align on strategy
A working session to discuss your goals, vendor preferences, and any non-negotiables. We build the plan around how your operation actually runs.
Account setup
We handle supplier introductions, credit applications, and onboarding with preferred vendors — so the transition is clean and your team barely feels it.
You start saving
Measurable cost reduction typically begins in Month 1. We track, report, and continuously optimize as your operation grows.

FAQs
Common questions.
Straight answers only.
Is this a GPO like Avendra or Food Buy?
No. We are not a GPO. Unlike a GPO, we don't lock you into a single purchasing channel. We consult to support purchasing across any vendors our customer prefers — while leveraging our preferred supplier network to get you better pricing.
If I already use a GPO, can I still use Craftable Procurement Services?
Yes, we can support compliance.
I'm a US Foods customer. Does that affect eligibility?
Yes — if you're a US Foods customer, some features are not currently available. We can still review your overall purchasing picture to support you.
Why does Craftable offer this free service?
We are in the business to help our customers to best manage their business through efficiencies and insights. Procurement is a key component to this equation. Using our industry experts, our goal is to help make you more profitable and grow your bottom line.
What does "centralized purchasing" mean, and do I need it?
Centralized purchasing means your locations buy from a coordinated plan rather than independently. If you're not there yet, that's fine — we can help you move in that direction as part of the engagement. Hybrid models work too.
