How Sticks’n’Sushi check whether planned hours align with budgets
Growing chains sometimes struggle to reign in runaway labour costs.
For Sticks’n’Sushi, it was just a question of implementing the right software.

with tamigo
Planned vs. actual budgets
User-friendly employee app
Faster internal communication
Back in 1994, sushi was still something of a luxury in Denmark.
That all changed with the opening of Sticks'n'Sushi's first Copenhagen restaurant. The pioneering chain introduced sashimi and nigiri to the masses, and they haven't looked back since.
Sticks now operate 20+ locations across Denmark, Germany and the UK.
Their Operations Manager Tommy Hvid says that tamigo's WFM solution has a direct influence on Sticks’n’Sushi's revenue. When budgets are added into tamigo, both management and planners can accurately see whether schedules align with budgets.
“It is incredibly important that we are able to see what our shift schedules costs while we’re making them. In addition, tamigo accurately displays labour costs against revenues across all the restaurants.”

Comprehensive
but user-friendly
While tamigo’s financial tools are great for HQ, the needs of managers and employees can’t be forgotten. Systems built only for administrators in mind tend to fall flat.
"The schedule is incredibly easy to manage for the individual planner. And because the schedule is constantly updated with new and user-friendly features, it actually keeps getting easier and easier to use."
Tommy also calls the tamigo app "genius". It gives both planners and employees access to key functions and information at anytime, anywhere. For example, when it comes to internal communication:
"It's a huge plus that our staff can access our tamigo front page in the web solution and on the app to see pictures and descriptions of our internal campaigns and specials."
