Efficient and timely planning as a catering supplier
Planning efficiently and delivering your products on time and correctly is a challenge for you as a catering supplier. Your customers are very committed to delivery and this should not and cannot be delayed. We tell you how to optimise your delivery process.
Delivery process in urban areas
Restaurant and cafes are mainly in urban areas. Route planning and delivery can be a challenge here. Customers require a specific time period in which they want to receive their products. Fortunately, with RouteLogic, this is not a problem; this is taken into account. In addition, the software calculates the most efficient route and takes delays into account. It is possible to communicate this directly to the end user.
- Make use of time slots;
- Avoid traffic jams and always navigate the fastest route to your destination;
- Expected arrival time.
Communication with the receiver
Customer communication is very important to you as a catering supplier. Your customers want to know when their order will be delivered. With time period delivery and track-and-trace from RouteLogic, this is possible. Customers can specify a time period when they want to expect their order. In addition, on the day itself they receive a track-and-trace code with the time when they can expect their order.
- Inform customers when route starts;
- Communicate accurate arrival times through Track & Trace;
- Expected arrival time.
Product quality
Equally important, and perhaps even more so, is the quality of the products. As a catering supplier, you need to ensure that the products are delivered in good condition. This means packing and transporting them under the right conditions to avoid spoilage and damage. Self-delivery is one of the solutions. Because you will be delivering the products yourself, you are in control.
- Sort chilled and frozen orders and automatically select the right vehicle.
- Calculate the costs per order accurately.
- Plan routes throughout Europe, combine Dutch and foreign addresses in one route.
