With an easy to navigate format, supported by intelligent search facilities, customers can explore and order products easily and efficiently.
Henderson Foodservice Business Development Director, Mark Stewart-Maunder said, ‘Launching at IFEX gave us the opportunity to showcase our new digital platform and maximise its impact with thousands of visitors visiting our stand at the show.
‘Customer response has been excellent, and they love the convenience of being able to place an order within 27 seconds as well as tracking their orders at a time that suits them, twenty-four/seven.
‘In designing the online package, we researched and analysed the ‘best in class’ globally to enable us create a customer friendly and easily accessible digital platform which also helps customers avoid making time-consuming phone calls and emails’
Featuring product attributes including nutritional and allergen details, the website offers a full support programme allowing customers to check back on their account history over an 18-month period.
Customers can order two weeks in advance, identify stock and its availability and track progress once the order has been uploaded. The facility also offers an online ‘chat room’ to address customer queries and questions, inspirational ideas and recipes as well as insights and background on industry news and future trends.
