Food, beverage and hospitality
Data and automation for restaurant groups, hotels and resorts
Point-of-sale, delivery tablets, reservations, booking engines and payroll each come from a different vendor, and none of them produces the morning report you need. Daily sales arrive as photos in group chats, and someone consolidates them by hand. Shift schedules, time records, leave and service charge distribution sit in spreadsheets across branches.
In short
Data Reach Solutions (DRS) is a Philippine AI, automation and software company, founded in 2019, with offices in Metro Manila and Cebu. For food, beverage and hospitality, DRS designs, builds and runs: daily sales brief; inventory and wastage; staff scheduling, time and leave; service charge computation; guest messaging and reservations; supplier ordering; guest reviews. Each system connects to what the business already uses, such as point-of-sale systems, delivery platform dashboards, reservation and table management tools, hotel property management systems and booking engines, and a person stays in control of every decision that matters.

Illustrative example
A restaurant group with 12 branches
Each branch sells about PHP 1.5 million a month, and food cost runs at 32% of sales. Daily visibility of variance and wastage that cuts unexplained food cost by one percentage point of sales saves about PHP 180,000 a month. Branch reporting and consolidation take about 240 hours a month across the group, and automation removes about 80% of that. All figures are illustrative. We replace them with your own numbers in the consultation.
- Group sales a month
- PHP 18 million
- Food cost saved
- About PHP 180,000 a month
- Reporting hours released
- About 192 a month
- Combined, over a year
- About PHP 2.9 million
