About Foreword Figures
Whether you're a single-location operator who just needs clean books, or a multi-unit group that needs real financial oversight — we meet you where you are and build the foundation you need to grow.
Founded by David A. Sosa, MBA, with over a decade of controller-level experience across restaurant groups, PE-backed hospitality brands, and multi-entity companies generating over $300M in annual revenue.
"Every operator deserves to walk into a meeting knowing their numbers are right — whether it's their first year in business or their tenth location. That confidence starts with books that speak for themselves."
— David A. Sosa, Founder & Managing ControllerWho We Serve
We built Foreword Figures to serve operators at every stage — with the right level of support, at the right price point.
You're running a tight ship and your books need to catch up. You don't need a controller — you need someone who'll get your numbers clean, keep them that way, and actually tell you what they mean.
You've outgrown a bookkeeper but a full-time controller isn't in the budget. You need consolidated reporting, clean month-end closes, and someone who understands the complexity of running multiple entities.
