The Key to Making Category Management Work

Success in Category Management does not come from putting products on a Plan-O-Gram, but from having the right products in your snack machines when your consumers want them.

The key is proper purchasing control at the warehouse level. Control your warehouse by only ordering Plan-O-Gram products during a specific menu cycle, and you will automatically control what products are in your vending machines.

Create a menu period order guide that lists only current Plan-O-Gram products, and you will make both warehouse and route functions easier - which will eliminate unnecessary investment in excess product inventory.
