Abstract

The goal of this project is to help the catering industry increase profits by lowering commission fees charged by third-party platforms such as Just-eat or UberEATS. Catering owners are often faced with high commission fees, which can be a significant drain on their business. By creating a food ordering mobile app that eliminates the need for such platforms, the app can provide a cost-effective solution that reduces business costs for catering owners and provides greater control over their business management.

In addition to reducing commission fees, the app also includes a range of features that make it an ideal solution for catering businesses. One such feature is the use of cloud printing technology, which significantly reduces customer complaints by ensuring that no orders are lost or delayed. All orders are sent directly to kitchen printers without delay, and in the event of an internet issue, the orders will be automatically reprinted. This feature adds an extra level of reliability to the system and helps to maintain a smooth and seamless ordering process.

Furthermore, the app provides catering owners with greater freedom to manage their business at their fingertips. The app allows catering owners to manage their menus, pricing, and promotions, as well as track their sales and customer data. The app also allows catering owners to communicate directly with their customers, providing a personalized and efficient service.

In summary, this food ordering mobile app provides a comprehensive solution to the catering industry, enabling catering owners to manage their businesses more efficiently, reduce costs, and enhance the customer experience by reducing errors and delays in the ordering process. It is an ideal solution for catering businesses looking to improve their profitability and customer satisfaction.
