What is the purpose of placing freshly baked cookies farther away from the display door?

The purpose of placing freshly baked cookies farther away from the display door is to ensure FIFO (First In, First Out) rotation. This practice helps maintain the quality and freshness of the cookies. By placing the newly baked items away from the door, team members are encouraged to serve the older cookies that are closer to the front first. This method minimizes the risk of serving cookies that have been in the display for too long, ensuring that customers receive only the best quality products. FIFO rotation is essential in food service to minimize waste and maximize freshness, aligning with food safety standards and overall customer satisfaction.
