Aeion Dining for Multi-Location Chains
Multi-location restaurant chains face a unique tension — per-location operational autonomy (local managers running daily operations) + corporate brand consistency + centralized analytics + supply chain leverage + franchise economics. Aeion Dining's multi-tenant architecture supports corporate-owned, franchised, and hybrid models with per-location operations + per-region rollup + per-chain centralized control.

FAQ
Per-Aeion multi-tenant. Per-franchisee separate tenant for full data isolation.

Per-tenant configurable. Per-corporate brand-standards locked. Per-location operational flexibility.
No separate "region" entity — group any set of locations and run Aeion Dining's multi-location comparison analytics against them for regional-style reporting.
Per-franchisee gross sales tracked in Aeion Dining. Franchisor sets the royalty rate and bills via Aeion Finance — not an automatic royalty-calculation engine.
