Unified visibility across all locations
Centralize spend, compare location-level performance, and standardize purchasing across your growing chain. Built for 5+ locations.
Challenges multi-location operators face
Scaling to 5+ locations creates complexity. Snag brings clarity.
No Cross-Location Visibility
Each manager runs their own operation. You have no idea if Location A is paying 20% more than Location B for the same items.
Inconsistent Purchasing
Every location orders differently. No standardization. No volume leverage. Your brand promise varies by location.
Rogue Spending
Manager at Location C starts ordering from a new supplier without approval. You don't find out until quarterly review.
Coaching Blind Spots
You suspect some managers are better negotiators. But you can't prove it or replicate their success.
Lost Negotiating Power
You're doing $500k/year with Sysco across 10 locations, but each manager negotiates separately. Leaving money on the table.
Data Chaos
Managers use different systems (or Excel). Consolidating data takes days. By the time you analyze it, it's outdated.

"Before Snag, I had no idea what each location was actually paying. Our Downtown store was paying $3.20/lb for chicken—Airport was paying $4.10 for the same thing. We standardized suppliers, now save $8k/month across 7 locations."
Enterprise-level savings
Savings scale with your operation
(average for 5-10 location chains)
Common questions from multi-location operators
Can I give managers access to only their location?
Yes! Role-based permissions let you control exactly what each user sees. Managers see only their location, regional directors see their region, HQ sees everything.
How long does implementation take across 10 locations?
2-3 weeks typically. We set up your account structure, train HQ staff (2 hours), then each location manager gets a 15-min onboarding. Most chains are fully operational within a month.
Can I enforce approved supplier lists?
Absolutely. You can set approved suppliers at the company or location level. Get alerts when managers order from unapproved vendors. Lock down purchasing or keep it flexible—your choice.
Does this work with franchise operations?
Yes! We support both corporate-owned and franchise models. Franchisees can see their own data, franchisors can see aggregated insights (with appropriate permissions).
Can we integrate with our POS or accounting system?
Yes. We have native integrations with major POS systems (Toast, Square, Clover) and accounting platforms (QuickBooks, Xero). Custom API available for enterprise systems.
What if locations use different suppliers?
That's fine—and actually common. Snag works with any supplier. You'll see price comparisons across suppliers and locations, helping you decide whether to standardize or keep flexibility.
Do you offer white-label or custom branding?
For enterprise contracts (25+ locations), yes. We can customize the dashboard with your branding. Contact our enterprise team for details.
What's the pricing model for multi-location?
Volume pricing per location. The more locations, the lower the per-location rate. Most 5-10 location chains pay less per location than independents. Contact sales for custom quote.
