The shopping list feature allows people to create, save and edit shopping lists in advance, then add them to their basket when they are ready to place the order. The new feature is particularly handy for caterers who need to place different orders on different days.
Mick Dudley, chief technology officer for JJ Foodservice, said: “With the cost of living increasing, planning menus and budgets more carefully has become even more important. A restaurant might need a top up of fresh fruit and vegetables mid-week then a bigger order of drinks, meats and poultry ahead of the weekend.”
More than 80% of JJ Foodservice sales come from orders placed online and growing. “That’s why we’re always thinking of new ways to improve the online experience,” added Dudley.
