Meal Prep Ordering Software Built for Weekly Menus
Publish your menu, take preorders with payment, set a hard cutoff, and run a single pickup window — without spreadsheets.
Meal prep businesses live or die on the operations. The cooking is the easy part. Where most home meal prep operations fall apart is the order-taking, payment chasing, and weekly menu management. FoodDropr is built for exactly that.
Publish a weekly menu, lock orders at your cutoff, get a clean prep list, and run pickup without a single text-message order.
Why meal prep needs purpose-built software
Meal prep customers commit weekly. Your menu changes. Your cutoffs are tight. Generic shop platforms can't handle the rolling weekly cadence, the meal bundles, or the per-customer modifications. FoodDropr does.
Features for meal prep operators
Everything is built around the weekly cycle.
- Weekly menu with publish, open, and cutoff times
- Meal bundles (5-pack, 10-pack, family pack)
- Per-meal protein/sides modifications
- Allergy and dietary notes on every order
- Stripe payment at order time
- Prep-list export sorted by meal and by customer
- Pickup window with reminders
Compliance and meal prep
Most meal prep operations need a commercial or shared commissary kitchen because cottage food laws prohibit refrigerated foods. FoodDropr is software-agnostic to your kitchen setup — bring your own legal kitchen, we handle the storefront.
What a real meal prep week looks like
Sunday: publish menu. Monday-Tuesday: orders open. Tuesday 8pm: hard cutoff. Wednesday: shopping. Thursday: prep. Friday: pickup window. With FoodDropr, every step has a single source of truth and no manual order entry.
