Food Preorder Software for Weekly Drops
The cleanest way to run a food preorder business — menu, payment, cutoff, pickup. No spreadsheets.
Food preorder businesses are different from restaurants. You aren't open every day. You aren't taking walk-ins. You're publishing a menu, taking orders during a window, prepping to order, and running a single pickup. FoodDropr was built from scratch for that model.
What preorder software needs to do
Publish a menu. Open and close orders on a schedule. Cap inventory so you don't oversell. Collect payment upfront. Output a clean prep list. Run pickup. That's the entire job, and most platforms either bury those features or skip them entirely.
