Do these everyday problems in catering & food service companies sound familiar?

Losing a function to another caterer usually comes down to a slow quote. Your enquiries arrive on WhatsApp and calls, menus are priced per plate in a notebook, and event dates are written on loose sheets.

See how CIPHER CRM solves this

An event enquiry comes in and the menu quote is slow.

Bookings and dates are tracked on paper.

Follow-ups slip and the client books another caterer.

Repeat corporate clients are not followed up.

The owner cannot see which events are booked or pending.

Every catering enquiry gets a menu quote from saved per-plate rates. Booked and pending events sit on one calendar with values. Corporate clients who ordered last year get a call before their next function.

Catering & Food Service Companies enquiries scattered across notebooks, calls and WhatsApp

Every catering & food service companies enquiry captured in one list with a named owner

Nobody is sure who was meant to manage bookings and guest enquiries

A named owner and a due date on every catering & food service companies follow-up

Quotes rebuilt by hand and sent hours late

Branded quotes from saved item rates in minutes

No single view of how you track repeat stays and follow-ups

A progress board with deal values, and a live overdue flag on unpaid bills

Catering & Food Service Companies history walks out of the door when staff leave

Every deal, quote and note kept on the customer record
