Procurement Management
Manage the full purchasing cycle from purchase requests to supplier receipts. Automate approval workflows, track supplier performance with custom KPIs, and eliminate manual email chains for every food order.
Running a restaurant means managing dozens of suppliers, fluctuating food costs, and tight margins—all at once. Keel's food purchasing software gives restaurant operators complete control over procurement: automate purchase orders, track supplier performance, and eliminate the spreadsheets slowing your kitchen down. Built to flex around your operation, not force you into a rigid template.
End-to-end purchasing tools built to give restaurant operators total visibility, control, and flexibility across every supplier relationship.
Manage the full purchasing cycle from purchase requests to supplier receipts. Automate approval workflows, track supplier performance with custom KPIs, and eliminate manual email chains for every food order.
Track every ingredient in real time across locations, monitor expiry dates, and trigger automated reorders when stock hits custom thresholds—so your kitchen never runs short on critical supplies.
Capture and manage supplier orders from a single place. Track every order from placement to delivery, automate fulfillment workflows, and maintain a complete audit trail for every transaction.
Centralise all supplier records including pricing terms, certifications, and performance history. Set preferred supplier rules and get notified instantly when issues arise that could impact your supply chain.
Monitor food cost against budget in real time with custom dashboards. Track spend by category, supplier, or location, and enforce approval limits to keep purchasing tightly controlled.
Build dashboards that surface the metrics that matter to your operation—cost per dish, supplier lead times, wastage rates—with push notifications for budget overruns or low-stock situations.
Keel's team works with you to model your exact purchasing workflows—your supplier list, approval hierarchies, and ordering cadences—so the system reflects how your restaurant actually operates, not a generic template.

Founded by executives who built and scaled operations software at Echo—Europe's fastest-growing online pharmacy—Keel is designed by people who have lived the operational complexity you face.
The team behind Keel has walked in your shoes.
Keel was founded in 2021 by three former executives from Echo, Europe's fastest-growing online pharmacy, which was later acquired by Pharmacy2U. At Echo, the founding team—who served as CEO, CTO, and CPO—built bespoke operations software to manage the shipping of 50,000 medicines daily to 600,000 customers, scaling the business to $130 million in annual revenue. When off-the-shelf tools failed to keep pace, they built what they needed from scratch and saw first-hand how owning your operations software becomes a genuine competitive advantage. That experience is the foundation of Keel: a platform designed so that businesses—including restaurants and food operations—can own, control, and evolve their procurement and operations tools without needing a large development team. In 2024, Keel raised $6 million in seed funding from leading European investors Earlybird and LocalGlobe, backing the mission to empower operators everywhere with flexible, powerful software they truly own.
Restaurants typically use procurement or purchasing software to manage food orders from suppliers—ranging from basic spreadsheets to full ERP systems. Modern platforms like Keel allow restaurants to build custom purchasing workflows tailored to their exact supplier relationships, approval processes, and inventory needs, replacing fragmented email chains and disconnected tools with a single, controlled system.
