Description :
ChefStation is an integrated online B2B platform customised for the F&B industry, aiming to link up small, individual restaurants with food suppliers more easily and effectively.
As a middle-man between restaurants and suppliers, we aim to combine the buying power of restaurants to allow them to search for their ideal suppliers and get ingredients at more competitive prices similar to larger chains, whilst providing a low-cost sales and marketing channel for suppliers simultaneously.
On the platform, we aim to streamline the manual, complicated and loosely structured procurement process, into an easy-to-use automated system, allowing restauranteurs to keep track of procurement operations comprehensively and effectively.
ChefStation has 3 major parts to offer restaurants:
The Market:
Food suppliers can list their products to sell for restaurants to place order directly. The Market is an ideal channel to remove information barrier, saving time for restaurants from comparing countless quotations for each ingredient and directly offering suppliers a large concentrated restaurant base allowing them to enhance sales in a cost-efficient way.
Credit Card Payment:
With our 3rd party payment partner ipaymy, restaurants can obtain their own credit terms if they choose to pay with their personal credit card with no additional charge. Since suppliers have stopped giving out credit terms this year, restaurant can use this to obtain 30-58 days credit term for their food supply.
My Restaurant Procurement System:
This is designed to digitalise restaurants’ existing procurement process. Here, even if restaurants don’t order on the Market, they can place procurement orders with their own suppliers, track and manage purchase orders, manage staff, manage inventory, monitor payments and generate data analysis reports. This not only saves time and labour costs in data entry, but the data collected also allow restauranteurs to assess and actively monitor food costs and inventory comprehensively.
