Pre-Order Kiosk

Food on the go for students on the go

Working closely with schools, we have introduced pre-order technology, supporting your 'grab-and-go' lunch service. The challenge to ensure pupils remain in school during lunchtime to eat a healthy meal is paramount. To encourage secondary school pupils to choose a healthy school meal rather than opting for local shops, we introduced the ability to pre-order a meal via kiosks within the school, then 'grab-and-go'. This pre-order functionality also benefits those pupils attending clubs & activities with limited time during lunchtime.

Grab-and-go

The pre-order kiosk removes the need for a member of the catering team to monitor the point of sale whilst allowing students to order school meals via a simple user interface and check their live cashless balance on screen before placing their order.

Stay ahead of the queue

Efficient food delivery

Lunchtimes in schools are becoming shorter and the drive to serve as many customers as possible in a short space of time is paramount. To facilitate this, we've introduced touchscreen kiosks placed throughout the school with meal collection points, both inside the building and in strategic locations in the playground.

Improved stock production & ordering

Order stock based on facts, not estimations

Caterers can configure minimum and maximum items that students can choose from, along with a stock level that shows when a particular meal option is no longer available.

Metro Fresh Wigan Council

"Many thanks to CRB Cunninghams for getting us up and running with the contactless cards and pre-order app. It was an excellent project and a pleasure to work with you all! I’ve had excellent feedback and expressions of thanks from senior officers, and more importantly, I have been inundated with requests from pupils wanting to sign up. I would highly recommend Fusion Online to other schools. In fact, I’m already advising other councils to implement the software."

"From start to finish, CRB Cunninghams displayed their knowledge and understanding of the school environment. They were flexible and professional from the start of the decision making progress.
