A catering shop for trade fairs and event catering
Stand catering is ordered online, and the kitchen gets a ready list
At trade fairs, exhibitors order coffee, lunch and catering for evening events for their stands. Orders that arrive by email and phone have to be gathered by hand for the kitchen and the waiters. In the catering shop, exhibitors order for their own stand and choose a delivery time. The kitchen and waiters see orders straight in their own views.
The catering shop is part of the Solmio online store. The same event can also open a voucher shop for visitors.
The order reaches the right stand
The customer chooses the hall, stand and delivery time. Every order comes with its place and time.
No late orders
You set the ordering times, and a product can have its own deadline. After the deadline the product can no longer be ordered.
Invoicing from the same service
Business customers order on invoice, and invoices go out from the Invoicing page in Solmio HQ, just like till invoices.
Halls, stands and delivery windows
You add the event's halls, their stands and the delivery windows. Exhibitors order for their own stand and choose a delivery time, so there is no need to gather orders from emails.
A picking list for the kitchen
The kitchen sees the ordered products gathered by event, without customer details. You can choose a picking list or a product matrix, and the list can be printed.
A work queue for waiters
Waiters have their own view on their phone, where deliveries are checked off. A print view shows orders by the hour. A waiter's view can be limited to certain halls and stands.
Till products, till sales and stock
Your till products are added to the shop. Orders are recorded as Solmio-kassa sales for the sales point you choose, and a report compares ordered quantities with the till's stock.
