Thanks for your thoughts.
Martin, our target will be corporate catering. Example when the secretary has to schedule catering for a meeting. Instead of picking up the phone or faxing the order, s/he goes to the site and selects items from a menu. Once orders have been they can be reselected, or set up as recurring orders.
Yes the site will have to be secure, we are looking into different payment models atm. We have started, in fact a protoype is almost ready. We are going to test it on some local cafes/ caterers first so we can get eye to eye feedback. If all goes well there should be something to look at soon. I’ll keep you posted.
Newbie, the person who places the order can select for either pickup or delivery. So yes this has been done to an extent on an individual scale. Our idea is a single system that allows caterers to come and setup an online presence without any web design consultation. So we would provide hosting.
Well, were pushing ahead & based on this poll so far 2 out of 3 people think its a great idea!
