Restaurant ordering site setup in Kenya

Set up a restaurant ordering site with an approved menu and fulfilment workflow.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional ordering-site ORD-82 adds twelve café menu items to an existing WooCommerce staging site for collection-only requests. The customer chooses items, collection window and contact; the café confirms acceptance and pays/collects through its approved offline process. Fixture orderT01 contains two teas and one bean plate with clearly fictional test prices. Output is a menu master, staging order flow, staff acceptance script and owner-controlled handover. Delivery zones, card payments, allergen advice, automatic kitchen availability and guaranteed fulfilment are excluded.
