[ Product · Vendor Tools ]

Catering software that helps you run the business — and win more of it.

CaterBase gives catering businesses the tools to manage quotes, calls, texts, orders, follow-up, marketing, and customer reactivation in one place.

Unlike ordinary catering software, CaterBase is connected to a marketplace. That means your tools do more than organize the work you already have — they help make your business easier to match with new catering demand.

[01]Beyond order management

Most catering software helps you manage what already came in.

CaterBase is designed to help you manage the business and connect with new demand. Your menus, packages, availability, pricing rules, service areas, lead times, and order capacity become part of a smarter matching layer for catering buyers.

When a CaterBase marketplace order fits your business, it can be routed to you. There is no extra marketplace access cost upfront. CaterBase only earns a fee when a CaterBase-sourced order is won.

Callout

Marketplace access built in

Use CaterBase Vendor Tools to run your business. When CaterBase brings you a matching order, the marketplace fee is 15% of that order.

No marketplace fee unless a CaterBase-sourced sale is made.

[02]Independence

We do not want to hold your business hostage.

CaterBase is not built to trap vendors inside a marketplace. You can use the same tools to grow your own brand, manage your own customers, reactivate your own leads, run your own campaigns, and improve your own operations — whether the order came from CaterBase, your website, a phone call, an email, a past customer, a referral, or your own sales effort.

The platform should make your business stronger, not dependent.

Your customers stay useful to you

Track customer history, preferences, past orders, open quotes, and follow-up opportunities in one place.

Your brand keeps growing

Use CaterBase to improve your direct sales process, outreach, media opportunities, and customer reactivation — not just marketplace orders.

Your operations become cleaner

Quotes, availability, order details, delivery notes, and team workflows become easier to manage as volume grows.

[03]Who it's for

Built for catering businesses that want more than another dashboard.

CaterBase Vendor Tools are designed for:

  • Caterers with corporate or event capacity
  • Restaurants that want to grow catering revenue
  • Cafés with breakfast, lunch, or office catering potential
  • Private chefs building larger-format service
  • Food businesses with past leads they have not fully reactivated
  • Vendors that want better quoting, follow-up, and repeat-customer systems
  • Operators that want marketplace demand without giving up their own direct growth
[04]How it works commercially

Pay for marketplace demand when it becomes real revenue.

Vendor Tools are designed to support your business whether the sale comes from CaterBase or your own channels. For CaterBase-sourced orders, CaterBase earns a 15% marketplace fee when the order is won.
