Invoice checking for restaurants
Every distributor invoice, checked line by line.
Hard Look Co. reads every invoice from your food distributors, finds what you were billed but shouldn't have been, and gets the credits back. You forward the invoices. We do the rest.
Example invoice. Industry audits find an overcharge on roughly one in three distributor invoices.
What we catch
Short deliveries
Cases billed but never delivered, or delivered damaged.
Price creep
Prices above your contract, order guide, or what your rep quoted.
Fees you never agreed to
Delivery, fuel, split-case and minimum-order fees that crept back in.
Duplicates and math errors
The same line billed twice, or extensions that don't add up.
Substitutions
A pricier item, or a smaller pack at the same price.
Missing credits
Credits you were promised that never showed up on the statement.
How it works
Forward your invoices
Set your distributor emails to forward automatically. Most already send invoices by email.
We check every line
Each price, quantity and fee is compared with your agreed prices, past invoices and delivery notes.
We draft the credit requests
You approve with one reply, and we follow up with your rep until the credit lands.
You get a one-page report
Each month: what was found, what was requested, and what came back.
Pricing
No setup fee and no contract. If we don't find at least our fee in a month, that month is free.
Built for independent restaurants, caterers and clubs that buy from broadline and specialty distributors.
Get started
Send two or three recent invoices from your main distributor, and we'll check them free and tell you what we find.
