For food & beverage businesses

Supply runs, deliveries and receipts — handled.

Food trucks, caterers, bakers, restaurant owners, farmers-market vendors and beverage makers spend hours on the road and a fortune at the warehouse club. MileAudit logs the drives automatically and turns stacks of receipts into organized expenses.

Deliveries, catering and events

Catering drop-offs, festival and market days, pop-ups and wholesale deliveries.

A mountain of receipts

Ingredients, packaging, equipment rentals, permits — scanned before they fade.

*Example only, using the 72.5¢-per-mile IRS standard rate in effect at the start of 2026. Rates change, sometimes mid-year — MileAudit values each drive at the rate for its date. MileAudit is a recordkeeping tool and does not provide tax advice; confirm your eligibility with a qualified professional.

Good to know

General information, not tax advice. Rules depend on your situation — confirm with a qualified tax professional.

  • Ingredients and food you sell are usually part of cost of goods sold rather than everyday supplies. MileAudit's Inventory category keeps them apart; your tax preparer decides how they're reported.
  • Receipt scanning reads the merchant, amount and date; big chains like Costco, Sam's Club and Walmart are recognized by name.
  • Thermal receipts fade. Scanning them the day you buy keeps a clear copy in private storage.
  • Whether a food truck's own miles use the standard rate or actual expenses is a choice for you and your tax preparer. MileAudit records the miles either way.

Frequently asked questions

Can MileAudit handle a lot of receipts?

Yes. Scan each receipt in seconds on your phone — the merchant, amount and date fill in, and you pick the category. Images are kept in private storage.

Is there a category for ingredients?

Use Inventory for goods you resell, Supplies for packaging and smallwares, or create custom categories like “Produce” or “Packaging.”

Does it track catering and delivery drives?

Yes. Drives are recorded automatically in the phone app; mark them business and add a purpose like “Catering — Smith wedding.”

Can I see what I spent each month?

Yes. Expense reports show totals by category for any date range, and the optional month-end phone summary recaps the month.
