Multi-location overview

Three concepts underpin everything:

• Organization — the chain itself, e.g. "Bella Cucina Group"
• Headquarters tenant — the "main" location. The HQ owner gets group-wide access.
• Branches — every other location. Each branch is a normal restaurant tenant under the umbrella organization.

A single user with the group-manager role can access every branch in the organization without being staffed on each one. See Group staff & RBAC.

• Group HQ dashboard (/dashboard/group) — KPIs aggregated across every branch, alert centre, branch ranking, 30-day trend, live order feed.
• Centralised menu engine — push menu / categories / prices / availability from any branch to any other. Full propagation history.
• Brand-wide promotions — create a discount at the org level; applies to every branch automatically, with per-branch opt-out.
• Group-scoped staff — invite group-managers + owners that work across the entire chain.
• Chain landing page — public-facing /chains/[slug] with branch list, geolocation sort, brand colours + logo. See Chain page (coming soon).
• White-label storefront — apply brand colours + favicon + email branding across every branch. See White-label.
