Chicken processing - whole birds into cuts, with the cost of each.
Record each processing batch: whole birds in, portions out. KukuStores checks the weights balance, splits the cost by weight and tracks your dressing yield.
The chopping board is where margins hide.
Cuts with no cost
If a whole bird cost KES 600, what did the wings cost? Without an answer, you cannot tell which cuts make money.
Yield nobody measures
A drop in how much saleable meat each bird gives is invisible until the month’s numbers disappoint.
Stock that changes shape
Once birds are cut, stock records kept in whole birds stop making sense.
Every batch balanced, every cut costed.
Batches that must balance
Whole birds go in; wings, thighs, breast, offal and trim come out. A batch only saves when the weights add up.
Cost follows the cut
The cost of the birds is split across the cuts by weight. Every portion you sell carries its real cost.
Dressing yield tracked
See how much saleable meat each batch gives, so a fall in yield shows up as soon as it happens.
Stock moves with the knife
Processing takes the whole birds out of stock and puts the cuts in. What you can sell is always up to date.
Common questions
Is processing on the free plan?
Yes. Processing is included on every plan, including Free.
What if my cuts do not add up to the bird?
A batch has to balance by weight, so the difference is recorded, for example as trim. It does not silently disappear from stock.
Can I process more than one bird at a time?
Yes. A batch takes in a quantity of one product, such as a number of whole birds. It records every cut that comes out.
