ANCHORAGE, Alaska, September 18, 2026 – Genius Food Purchasing is a restaurant procurement software company that compares prices from national and regional food distributors in real time, so restaurants stop overpaying on invoices without changing suppliers, hiring staff, or retraining their teams.

Most restaurants overpay because tracking every vendor's price on every item by hand is impractical. Genius does that work automatically, line by line and order by order. It covers Sysco, US Foods, Performance Food Group, Gordon Food Service, and more than 60 regional distributors.

Genius also brings together the other numbers that drive food cost:

1) Real-time price comparison: every vendor's price for every item, side by side.
2) Live recipe costing: vendor prices linked to recipes, so dish costs and margins stay current as markets move.
3) Automatic rebate capture: enrollment in a national rebate program that returns cash to the restaurant instead of the distributor.
4) Inventory tracking: real-time inventory insight without manual counts, flagging waste and over-portioning.
5) Cost control: alerts for price creep and margin leaks as they happen.

According to the company, independent operators save more than 10% on food spend in the first month, and setup takes three to five days. Genius works alongside the vendors and systems restaurants already use, with no long-term contracts.

"We were getting retailed by the wholesalers until Genius gave us control over prices we never had. We cut our food spend by over 10%," said Marcus L., Co-Owner of Five Forks Tavern.

Genius serves independent restaurants, multi-unit operators, franchise locations, and owner-operators. Before any commitment, the company runs the platform against a restaurant's actual orders and documents the savings in writing.
