Remi of Smoke & Salt chose to run payroll and supplier payments with Apron partly because of our bulk pay feature 💸
It allows him to pay staff and suppliers together in a single payment.
Finances in the restaurant business are notoriously messy 🍖
With so many different suppliers needing payment at different times, admin can become a massive drain on creativity and time spent cooking.
🍜 It made perfect sense, therefore, for Remi to choose Apron for handling supplier and payroll payments.

When Remi co-founded Smoke & Salt in Tooting during Covid, it was important for him to take a tech-first approach. 💻
Being able to access and update menus and recipes anywhere, even while on the school run, helps the restaurant to stay agile.
📃 It’s easier to get the documents you need to complete a payment or reconcile a transaction by using Apron. 🤗
But, unlike the airport lounge, this level of comfort and convenience won’t cost you a fortune.
When it comes to acquiring missing documents from clients, too many accountants and bookkeepers settle for the waiting area. 😫
The process is slow, frustrating, uncomfortable, and threatens to put everyone in a bad mood.
💦 Would you rather sweat it out in the airport waiting room, enduring all of the inconvenience and discomfort that it entails? Or free up your mind in the VIP lounge? 🍸
