In 2013, Adriaan and Frank joined forces to establish IdeaalCatering. What began as an online platform for complete barbecues and buffets quickly grew into a successful merger with Keurslagerij Oosterom. Today, it is a professional catering company based in Lopik that delivers orders throughout the Netherlands. The combination of craftsmanship and entrepreneurship is deeply rooted in their approach. We spoke to Cynthia about their daily operations, and how Catermonkey plays a key role in them.
One push of a button, zero manual work
Since switching to Catermonkey, internal operations have been fully digitised. “Everything is automated and runs much more smoothly,” they say. “The production lists, the purchasing lists, everything is arranged with a few clicks of a button from a single programme. No manual work required.”
For IdeaalCatering, the export label function is a game changer. “We print the exact details for every product in our buffet: name, product code, dish and weight. That makes preparation a lot easier and more professional.”
Less stress, more overview
The benefits are noticeable throughout the entire team. “Since we started using Catermonkey, we experience much less stress. Everyone within the company can work with it. It is a calendar and system for every colleague. And it also works perfectly when transferring tasks to other colleagues.”
For them, Catermonkey is more than just a planning tool, it has become the central nervous system of their organisation.
Highly recommended
IdeaalCatering has a clear message for fellow caterers who are still unsure: “I would always recommend Catermonkey. Everything rolls out at the touch of a button, without any manual work. And I think that’s what every caterer wants.”
