  • Separate scoops, tongs or boards for allergen-free orders, clean and in place
  • Supplier substitutions this week checked for allergen changes

In RakuOps, a check answered No, a reading outside its limits, or a photo that does not match your best store's opens a fix for that store, with an owner and a due date.

Why chains run this check

Allergen mistakes usually come from a change that reached some stores and not others: a new recipe, a supplier substitution, an old label left in a tray.

This check confirms each store holds the current information from head office, that its labels match it, and that the team on shift can answer a customer's question.

How it runs at every store

  1. One standard. Send this checklist to every store, on a schedule, to whoever is on shift.
  2. Evidence back. Photos, readings and answers come back from the phone, timestamped and named.
  3. Problems become fixes. Anything that fails opens a fix for that store, due in hours, not at the next visit.
  4. Best against worst. The scorecard ranks your stores on it and shows which check the worst store misses.

Frequently asked questions

Is this template free?

Yes. Print it, save it as a PDF, or tick it off on this page. To run it at every store, with photos, readings that open a fix when they are out of range, and a scorecard that ranks your stores, use it in RakuOps. The free plan covers one store, with unlimited users.

How often should allergen information be checked?

Weekly, and on the day any recipe, product or supplier changes. The day-of-change check is the one that prevents most mistakes.

Why record the matrix version?

It shows at a glance which stores are still working from an old version after head office sends an update.
