EVERY INGREDIENT AFFECTS YOUR BOTTOM LINE

Understand your food costs before they eat into your profits

Servicing the Rio Grande Valley

At Mederos Marketing Group, we believe restaurant owners should know what every dish actually costs to put on the table. We provide professional cost of goods analysis for restaurants throughout the Rio Grande Valley, helping owners evaluate ingredient expenses, recipe costs, portions, vendor pricing, food waste, packaging, menu prices, and other costs directly connected to what they sell. Small increases in meat, produce, dairy, cooking oil, packaging, or other ingredients can significantly affect profitability when multiplied across hundreds or thousands of orders. We help organize and analyze available purchasing, recipe, sales, and menu information to identify what individual products cost, how those costs compare with selling prices, and where margins may be getting squeezed. Whether your restaurant is located in McAllen, Brownsville, Edinburg, Harlingen, Mission, South Padre Island, Los Fresnos, Weslaco, Pharr, San Benito, or anywhere across the RGV, Mederos Marketing Group helps restaurant owners gain a clearer understanding of the numbers behind their menu.

Professional cost of goods analysis can also uncover problems that are difficult to recognize simply by looking at total restaurant sales. A restaurant can be busy and still struggle financially if ingredient prices have increased, portions are inconsistent, recipes are not properly costed, waste is too high, menu prices have remained unchanged, or certain popular dishes generate very little contribution toward overhead and profit. Mederos Marketing Group helps restaurants examine these areas more closely and turn available operational data into practical recommendations. We can review ingredient costs, recipe quantities, vendor invoices, portion standards, packaging expenses, menu pricing, waste patterns, product mix, and other variables that influence restaurant COGS. Whether you are experiencing shrinking margins, considering menu price changes, preparing for menu engineering, opening a new restaurant, negotiating with vendors, or simply trying to understand why profits do not match sales, we help Rio Grande Valley restaurant owners identify where their costs are coming from and where opportunities for improvement may exist.

What's included? Everything your brand needs!

Mederos Marketing Group helps restaurants understand the true cost behind the products they sell. We review available ingredient pricing, recipes, portions, purchasing information, waste, packaging, sales, and menu pricing to identify how food and product costs affect individual dishes and overall restaurant profitability.

RECIPE COST ANALYSIS

RECIPE COST ANALYSIS

We break down recipes by ingredients, quantities, and available purchasing costs to estimate what individual dishes actually cost to produce. This gives restaurant owners a clearer foundation for evaluating menu pricing and understanding the financial performance of individual products.

VENDOR & INGREDIENT COST REVIEW

VENDOR & INGREDIENT COST REVIEW

Ingredient prices change constantly. We can review available vendor invoices and purchasing information to identify significant cost changes, expensive ingredients, purchasing patterns, and areas where restaurant owners may want to reconsider products, vendors, portions, or menu pricing.

FOOD COST PERCENTAGE REVIEW

FOOD COST PERCENTAGE REVIEW

We evaluate food costs in relation to menu pricing and available sales information to identify products or categories where costs may be consuming too much of the selling price. This can help highlight dishes that deserve closer attention before margins become a larger problem.

WASTE & COST LEAKAGE IDENTIFICATION

WASTE & COST LEAKAGE IDENTIFICATION

Overportioning, spoilage, incorrect preparation, unused ingredients, excessive packaging, and other operational issues can quietly increase COGS. We help identify potential areas of cost leakage and provide practical recommendations for improving control and reducing unnecessary waste.

PORTION & YIELD ANALYSIS

PORTION & YIELD ANALYSIS

A recipe may look profitable on paper while inconsistent portions reduce the actual margin. We review portion sizes, ingredient quantities, product yields, and preparation standards to identify opportunities for greater consistency and better control over food costs.

MENU MARGIN & PRICING RECOMMENDATIONS

MENU MARGIN & PRICING RECOMMENDATIONS

Once costs are better understood, we can compare them with menu pricing and product performance to identify potential opportunities. Recommendations may include reviewing prices, portions, ingredients, recipes, add-ons, combinations, or menu items that are no longer producing an appropriate margin.

See Where Your Restaurant Is Making Money, And Where It Is Losing It

Cost of goods analysis is more than adding up ingredient invoices. It is about understanding how purchasing costs, recipes, portions, waste, pricing, and product mix work together to affect restaurant profitability. Even small cost increases can become significant when repeated across hundreds of orders every week. Mederos Marketing Group helps restaurants throughout the Rio Grande Valley analyze the costs behind their menus, identify potential areas of lost margin, and make more informed decisions about pricing, portions, purchasing, recipes, and overall restaurant operations.
