BakeryMS is bakery inventory management software that keeps stock without anyone typing it in. Labels printed in production, approved supplier invoices, deliveries to shops, till sales and waste all move the numbers. Once a month your team counts on their phones, and a manager signs the count off.
Used daily at Bazaar Bakery in Riga: 6 shops and a central bakery.

Bazaar Bakery, August 2026. BakeryMS was built there; the founder co-owns Bazaar.
Stock on paper is a guess until the next count.
In most bakeries stock lives in a spreadsheet that someone updates when they have time. The count takes an evening, and nobody can say why the numbers differ.
Stock in a spreadsheet
Numbers typed in by hand, usually after the fact
Flour and butter used in production never subtracted
Count sheets printed, filled in by pen, typed up again
Differences found, but no record of what moved in between
Shops and the bakery each keep their own version
Stock in BakeryMS
Stock moves when work is recorded: labels, invoices, deliveries, sales, waste
Ingredients used are subtracted from recipes when production is labelled
Counts on phones, several people at once, saved even without signal
Every item has a movement log showing what came in and what went out
One stock figure per location, and a total for the company
How the stock figure is built
Nobody keeps the stock up to date by hand. It is worked out from the work you already record.
01
In
Approved supplier invoices add what you bought. Production labels printed at the bakery add what you made.
02
Out
Recipes subtract the ingredients each batch used. Till sales, recorded waste and orders sent to customers take stock out.
03
Between locations
Deliveries and transfers move stock from one location to another when the receiving shop confirms what arrived.
04
Counted
A monthly count sets each item to what is really on the shelf. The next month starts from that figure.
Bakery inventory management, day to day
Live stock per location
See stock for each shop and the bakery, or the company total. Items below their minimum are marked low or critical, and items at zero or below are marked out of stock.
A movement log for every item: purchased, produced, used in recipes, sold, wasted, transferred, counted
Look at today, the last 7 or 30 days, or all time
Manual corrections with a reason: damage, found, expired, correction
Monthly counts on staff phones
A manager opens a count for a location and adds the people counting. Each person gets their own link on their phone; a shared tablet works too.
Search by name or scan a barcode with the phone camera
Counts are saved on the phone without signal and sync when it returns
Can’t find an item? Describe it or take a photo and AI suggests matches (needs internet)
The manager sees progress, pace and each person’s counted lines while the count runs
Sign-off that sets stock
When counting is done, the manager reviews the differences and signs off. Stock is set to the counted figures. Large differences need a reason before the count can be approved.
Full counts: items nobody counted are set to zero, and you see their value at cost before confirming
Partial counts: only the items counted change
Transfers between locations
Shops can send stock to another location, and the bakery sends goods to shops. A shop cannot send more than it has. Nothing moves until the receiving shop confirms; if fewer arrive, the rest stays with the sender.
Goods received at shops
When a delivery from the bakery arrives, the shop confirms what came. Stock moves on that confirmation, and anything short goes onto a draft order for the next delivery.
Minimum and maximum stock
Set a minimum, reorder point and maximum for each item, with different limits per shop where needed. For order categories you switch to min/max, such as packaging, the shop’s suggested order tops each item up to its maximum once it falls to the reorder point.
Good to know before you start
Stock is only as accurate as what gets recorded.
Production has to be labelled
Finished goods enter stock when their labels are printed, and ingredients leave stock through the recipe. Products made without a label, or recipes with wrong quantities, put the numbers off.
Shop sales need till data
Sales come out of stock through the till import. Today that means CHD miniPOS; ask us about your till. Till sales arrive the following day, so sign off a count once they are in.
Shops need to confirm deliveries
A delivery or transfer moves stock only when the receiving shop confirms it. Unconfirmed deliveries make the shop look short and the bakery look full.
The first count is the starting point
Stock before BakeryMS is unknown, so the first full count sets the baseline. We plan it with you during onboarding.
Stock and inventory questions
Do we have to enter stock movements by hand?
No. Stock is worked out from what your team already records: production labels, approved supplier invoices, deliveries, till sales and waste. Manual corrections are possible, with a reason, but they are the exception.
Can several people count at the same time?
Yes. Each person gets their own link and counts on their own phone; a shared tablet can be added as well. The manager sees who counted what while the count is running.
Our storeroom has no signal. Does counting still work?
Yes. Counts are saved on the phone and sync when the connection comes back. Only the AI item finder needs internet.
What happens to items nobody counted?
In a full count they are set to zero when the count is signed off, and you see their value at cost before you confirm. In a partial count they keep their current stock.
Can each shop have its own minimum stock?
Yes. Set default limits on the item and override them for a shop. Items under their minimum are marked low or critical in the stock list.
What does it cost?
Stock and inventory is part of the full system: €149 per month for the first 12 months, €249 per month from month 13, and €490 one-time onboarding. No per-user or per-location fees. Hardware is separate.
