Accounting for Restaurants in the UAE

We keep the books for a large portfolio of UAE restaurants and cafés. We know what a Talabat settlement looks like before commission, and what it should look like after.

What usually goes wrong

  • POS sales that never agree to the bank
  • Aggregator commission eating margin invisibly
  • Food cost calculated on purchases instead of consumption
  • Staff meals and wastage never separated
  • Branch performance hidden inside a group P&L

What we do about it

  • Daily sales reconciled from Foodics, Omega, Micros or your POS to cash and card settlement
  • Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem and Noon settlements agreed gross-to-net, with commission and VAT split out
  • True COGS using opening stock plus purchases less physical closing stock
  • Wastage, staff meals and complimentary covers tracked separately
  • Outlet-level P&L with shared costs allocated on an agreed basis
  • Landlord turnover certificates for percentage-rent leases

Metrics we report monthly

Food cost %, labour %, rent %, delivery commission %, net margin %
