In simple answer , track your product mix (the amount of items sold in a day) and associate to the sales for an average. For example, you sold burgers in a day you sold,$, that should give u a close average of amount of burgers you should sell for that day.

For requirement of raw material we can manage through our weekly and monthly sales report. always try to sell fresh food to customer to make him visit your restaurant again and again. Meat product & fish product should not be in deep freezer for a long time it must be consumed within a week time.

Vegetables also you cannot keep for long period and for them you have to do shopping twice in a week.

It depends on:

1. The number of customers you have on average each day

2. The type of food if it is hazardous, potenial hazardous or dry food.

3. The storage facility that you own (modernized, just simple fridge or a simple room)
