Food Industry Information Technology (IT)

Providing the Ingredients for Information Technology (IT) Success in the Food Industry

Hunting and gathering kept mankind fed for millennia with no more technology than a spear and a flame. Today’s food industry requires much more sophisticated systems to create and serve food while offering diners a seamless experience from making reservations to settling the tab. Backend systems need to order, track, and manage inventory to make sure no one goes hungry, while online systems let customers reserve tables in advance and mobile technology at the table simplifies ordering and paying. The advanced infrastructure needed to support these services needs to work in warehouses and repurposed structures from a previous century.
