Canteen POS, canteen management system and canteen billing software in Kenya, for school, office and factory canteens.
If you came looking for a canteen POS, a canteen management system or canteen billing software, you found something better. I work the lunch rush at a school, an office or a factory: fast at the counter, fair in the queue, and clear in the report at two o'clock. Scroll down and I will show you. I also work for fast food and takeaways and every other kind of kitchen.
Three hundred lunches, one counter, no shouting.
The cashier taps the order on a phone or a tablet while the next person is still choosing. The board says Preparing, then Please collect, with the number. If the power goes, the Orderly Manager app keeps the sales on the phone and sends them later.
They order themselves, so the queue is shorter.
A tablet on a stand by the door takes the order and the M-Pesa before anyone reaches the counter. Staff and students pick, pay and collect. The kiosk comes with Orderly Plus.
THE REAL SCREENS
The queue reads the TV, not the cashier.
The order board shows each number as Preparing, then Ready the moment the kitchen finishes. The menu board shows your prices and offers. Any TV with a browser can be one: open orderly.co.ke/tv on it.
Real screens from my apps. The restaurant, the names and the orders are made up.
I count the rice, the beans and the cooking oil.
Every plate takes its recipe out of the store, so you know by Wednesday what Friday needs. I warn you before the ugali flour runs out. I count the mandazi. I do not eat them.
M-Pesa, Airtel Money, card and cash, matched to every plate.
Every payment lands on its order, so the end of the shift balances without reading messages. The company that wants a KRA tax invoice for the staff lunch gets one. eTIMS is free on every plan.
I show you what sold, hour by hour.
Which dish ran out at 12:40 and which one came back to the kitchen. What Monday sells against Friday. You cook the right amount, and the bin stays empty.
I ALSO DO THE BASICS
The rest of the day, in canteen words.
The counter
A fast cashier screen on a phone, a tablet or a computer. Receipts print by themselves.
The order board
An old tablet or a TV on the wall says Preparing, then Please collect, with the number.
The kitchen screen
Orders show on a screen at the pass, with a timer, so nothing waits in silence. On Orderly Plus.
The menu of the day
Mark what is on today and hide what is not. Thursday is pilau. Friday is fish.
KRA tax invoices
eTIMS is free on every plan. The company that pays for the staff lunch gets an invoice KRA can read. Read more
The team
Clock-in and hours add up by themselves. Roles keep the cashier to the counter. Every void carries a name.
When the internet drops
The Orderly Manager app saves your sales on the phone and sends them when you are back online.
Ask me
Type or speak, and I answer from your own numbers. How many plates of githeri on Tuesdays? On Orderly Plus.
Receipts without paper
Send the receipt or the tax invoice to the customer's WhatsApp, or by text. How it works
Your old menu
Take a photo of the menu board or send me the Excel sheet. I read it and type it in.
Any screen
Phone, tablet, Sunmi, computer or TV, plus a Windows and Mac app for the counter.
Help
WhatsApp +254 747 888 254. I answer, day or night.
