CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwired - Nov 17, 2016) - ArrowStream, Inc ., ("ArrowStream") a supply chain innovator that combines expertise in data science and analytics to improve the way supply chains perform, today announced that Hooters of America LLC, franchisor and operator of more than 420 Hooters restaurants in 42 states and 26 countries, has licensed ArrowStream's market-leading OnDemand software to support managing food spend, inventory and limited-time-offer (LTO) tracking with its suppliers and distributors.
Hooters sought a new software that could support the increased complexity of its supply chain as the brand continues its steady growth. OnDemand will provide Hooters with greater visibility into inventory data that will help promotions run with even greater efficiency, and allow the purchasing team to access contract, pricing, and food-spend information faster with ArrowStream's at-your-fingertips technology.

"The way ArrowStream is innovating and connecting the foodservice market is unlike any other company in the industry. They provide a true end-to-end solution that enables suppliers and distributors to interact with our team, which provides the complete picture for what is happening in our supply chain."

OnDemand empowers companies like Hooters to quickly identify price variance savings opportunities and proactively address the most pressing threats in their supply chains by centralizing inventory, contract, and quality assurance information.
