FOR FAST-CASUAL CHAINS

SB 68 was written for you.

The 20+ California-location threshold targets exactly the operators with the hardest compliance problem: a menu that lives in store, on your site, in DoorDash, in Uber Eats, in Grubhub, on the kiosk, and on the catering deck. Each version has to disclose. MenuRegistry audits all of them, version-stamped, in seconds.

52 days until SB 68 enforcement begins (July 1, 2026).

Why this hits fast-casual hardest

More menus, more channels, more supplier risk per location.

10+

Channels per chain

POS, your site, DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, in-store kiosks, printed inserts, third-party catering platforms, drive-thru menu boards, mobile app. Every channel needs the same allergen disclosure. None of them sync automatically when ingredients change.

Daily

Supplier substitutions

Your wholesaler is out of soybean oil, swaps in canola, but the new canola is processed in a peanut facility. The kitchen doesn't know. The menu doesn't update. The next allergen-sensitive guest finds out the hard way.

5–10x

Menu variants per concept

Lunch menu, dinner menu, brunch menu, kids menu, catering menu, holiday LTOs. Most chains carry several active versions per location, each with separate disclosure obligations under SB 68.

$50K–$5M

Per-violation penalty range

California's enforcement guidance for SB 68 is per-violation, not per-incident. A chain with 50 locations and a single mislabeled menu replicated across all of them is exposed across all of them.

47%

Lawsuit growth, 2025

Class-action allergen-mislabeling filings roughly doubled between 2024 and 2025. Plaintiff firms are scaling. Average settlement: $85K. SB 68 makes the documentation gap easier for them to prove in California.

Compliance staff at most franchisees

Below the 50-location mark, most chains don't have a Director of Compliance. The franchise owner or area manager handles it on top of operations. Tooling has to be self-serve and fast or it doesn't get used.

How MenuRegistry handles it

One platform across every location, every channel, every menu version.

Multi-location dashboard

Group plan starts at 2 locations and scales to any number. Per-location billing, pooled audit credits, single sign-on for whoever runs ops. See compliance posture for the whole chain at a glance.

Per-channel audits

Audit your in-store menu, then your DoorDash menu, then your Uber Eats menu separately. Each gets its own version-stamped record so you can prove what was disclosed where, on what date.

Scheduled re-audits

Set a weekly or monthly re-audit on each menu URL. We re-run the audit on schedule, compare against the previous version, and email you when allergen disclosures flip or new gaps appear.

Public verification badge

Embed a 'Verified by MenuRegistry' badge on your customer-facing menu page. Each badge links to a public verification URL with the audit's SHA-256 content hash, so inspectors can check the record on their phone during a walk-through.

CSV/JSON export

Pull the full per-dish allergen matrix as CSV or JSON for your own dashboards, supplier compliance reports, or insurance documentation.

Audit comparison + change tracking

Diff this month's audit against last month's. Spot the dishes where allergen calls flipped, the new ones that need disclosure, and the ones cleared after a supplier change.

Group pricing for chains

$59 per location, per month. 4 audits per location, pooled across the chain.

A 30-location operator pays $1,770/mo and gets 120 pooled audit credits monthly, enough to audit each location three times per month plus the lunch and dinner variants. One enforcement settlement averages $85K. The math is straightforward.

Run a free audit on one of your locations first. Takes under a minute. If the report finds a real gap, that’s your business case for rolling MenuRegistry across the rest of the chain.
