Set every detail of what you're serving
Dietary requirements, portion sizes, packaging and production factors: set once per product, applied to the whole order.
Your customers count on precision. For each dish, you set the dietary options, choose the portion size, select the packaging and adjust the production factor. Everything feeds straight into your preparation lists and cost calculations.
In short
- Set dietary flags per dish: vegan, gluten-free, halal or any other requirement you track
- Choose portion sizes from your preset catalogue or use the default
- Select the packaging type per product: takeaway containers, trays or your own options
- Set per product whether it's delivered hot or cold, so the kitchen keeps an eye on timing
- Adjust the production factor to scale ingredient quantities for cooking in bulk
- Set diets and portions for each dish within a product group
Set per dish
You work with orders that involve several dietary requirements at once: vegan, gluten-free, halal. In Catermonkey you flag each dish for each requirement. Choose a portion size from your preset options or use the default. Select packaging for pickup or delivery. Set a production factor to scale ingredients for cooking. Deliver hot or cold? You set that per dish too.
Inside a package too
Add a product group, and the window opens each individual dish so you can set diets, portions and packaging separately. Every choice lands straight in your preparation lists and margin calculations. No guesswork, no double entry.
The kitchen sees it instantly
Changes save instantly. Your kitchen sees the updated specifications. Your cost price reflects the actual ingredients. Your customer gets exactly what they ordered.
