Online Ordering for Produce, Products & Menu Supplies
Researching different online/web based systems for ordering produce and other menu items from suppliers. A lot of the systems I have found seem to be proprietary to a particular distributor, supplier or consortium. While any recommendations, even for a proprietary system woudl be appreciated, I'm particularly interested in systems where I can compare produce and products from different distributors, suppliers and manufacturers. Any advice? Many thanks.See More

When they first started up, they got really uptight if you talked about your business on here cuz they wanted ppl to buy banner ads. I loaded up my profile with anchor links back to my website. I have been talking to folks about Gobza. Kelly and I will talk to Karen (exec director - GRA) next week.
