Every business strives to minimize expenses, including drive-thrus. Here are five ways to lower your operational costs.

1.    Take good care of your equipment. Clean your headsets every day. Provide regular maintenance. Don’t delay needed repairs for broken drive-thru parts.

2.    Practice smart food prep. Use pre-proportioned food when it costs less than preparing items from scratch.

3.    Improve order accuracy. Cutting down on order mistakes reduces food waste and the labor costs required to fix them.

4.    Schedule efficiently. Use scheduling software to avoid over-staffing during different dayparts.

5.    Reduce employee turnover. Treat employees with respect, provide opportunities for advancement, and they will be less likely to leave for a different job.
