Integration for food and drink businesses

Food and drink runs on tight margins and short lead times. A wholesaler supplying restaurants might take hundreds of orders between the end of evening service and the early morning delivery run, each with its own prices, substitutions and delivery slot. A café or restaurant group needs its till takings in the accounts every day, not at month end.

Ordering apps like Choco and Orderlion have taken a lot of the friction out of how kitchens order. The gap is what happens next: orders still need to get into Sage, Xero or your ERP before they can be picked, delivered and invoiced, and prices and product lists still need to be kept right in the app.

How Zynk helps

Zynk connects the ordering platforms to the systems that run the rest of your business:

• Orders in, automatically. New Choco and Orderlion orders arrive as sales orders in your accounting or ERP system, ready to pick and invoice, with no overnight rekeying.
• Prices and products out. Your product range and customer-specific prices flow from Sage, Xero or your ERP to the ordering app, so buyers only see what you can supply at the price they've agreed.
• Till sales in the books. Square sales, card payments and refunds post to your accounts automatically, so takings reconcile day by day.
• One view of stock. Trade orders, web orders and EPOS sales draw on the same stock figures, so you don't oversell short-dated or seasonal lines.

Whether you're a food wholesaler, a drinks distributor or a hospitality group, Zynk can be set up for the way you trade. Talk to our team about your ordering and accounts setup.
