For example, the waveform W1 indicates the number of times of cooking with the cooking key “1”, and the waveform W2 indicates the number of times of cooking with the cooking key “2”. Here, the cooking key is used as product identification information for identifying a product.

  For example, the product corresponding to the cooking key “2” of the waveform W2 tends to increase the number of times of cooking from about time T2. That is, it is presumed that the product corresponding to the cooking key “2” is a product that can be sold around time T2. The delivery processing unit 124 creates a delivery schedule in which the cooking ingredients of the product corresponding to the cooking key “2” arrive at the time T1 considering the cooking time so as to be in time for the increase in the number of cooking times from the time T2. Also, the delivery processing unit 124 estimates the amount of cooking ingredients used per day based on, for example, the cumulative number of cooking times per day for each product, and delivers so as to increase or decrease the amount of cooking ingredients corresponding to each product. Create a draft. For example, the product corresponding to the cooking key “2” has a larger cumulative number of cooking times per day than the product corresponding to the cooking key “1” of the waveform W1, and therefore the product corresponding to the cooking key “1”. Create a delivery plan that delivers a lot of cooked ingredients.

  In addition, the delivery processing unit 124 stores the created delivery plan in the delivery information storage unit 114. Moreover, the delivery process part 124 transmits the produced delivery plan to the store terminal 20 according to the request | requirement from the store terminal 20 of each store 2, for example. In this case, for example, the store terminal 20 acquires a cooking food delivery plan created by the delivery processing unit 124, and outputs the acquired cooking food delivery plan to the display unit 21.
