Salsarita's cutting labor, food costs with back-office platform

Salsarita's Fresh Mexican Grill is streamlining its inventory and scheduling platforms by rolling out Data Central powered by ParTech. Charlotte-based Salsarita's, which first joined forces with Par in 2017 by deploying the Brink POS Software & EverServ hardware platforms, is now adding Par's restaurant management system to help control food and labor costs, said Tim Carter, CFO of Salsarita's Fresh Mexican Grill.

"What used to take days to pull data for reports now takes less than an hour with Data Central," he said in a company press release. "There have also been significant time savings for our administrative staff with more efficient data flows using the system."

Data Central eliminates the need to manually enter certain data and the ability to quickly pull reports, Savneet Singh, president and CEO of Par Technology, said in the release.

"Salsarita's has experienced remarkable success with their current Par solution, and we are confident that this addition of Data Central will only further expand their capabilities in creating a seamless guest experience and continuing to serve delicious food to their guests," he said.

Founded in 2000, Salsarita's has over 80 locations in 18 states.
