Cress

Cress is web software for event caterers that keeps quotes, costings, run sheets, kitchen prep lists, purchasing, packing lists, planning and invoicing tied to one event record, so a change flows through to every list. The vendor sells it to small event catering teams, and the site is in Dutch. No price is published.

Who it is for

  • Small event catering teams

    The vendor says Cress fits teams of 2 to 6 permanent staff plus flexible workers who run several events at once.

  • Caterers running many events a month

    Customer stories describe caterers handling 30+ jobs a week or 40 to 60 events a month.

Less suited to: Restaurants, cafes and other venues without event work: the vendor positions Cress only as software for event caterers.

What it does

  • Event as central record

    Client, menu, guest numbers, diets, equipment and agreements are held in one event object.

  • Quotes

    Builds complete quotes in a few clicks; the vendor says this takes about five minutes.

  • Costing

    Costings are linked to quotes and recalculate automatically when the event changes.

  • Automatic kitchen prep and purchasing lists

    Generates kitchen and order lists from the menu, guest numbers and dietary needs.

  • Kitchen overview

    Gives prep and production instructions so the kitchen works from the same information.

  • Packing lists

    Produces packing lists based on what is needed on site.

  • Run sheets

    Event run sheets are linked to the same event data as quotes and packing lists.

  • Equipment and staff planning

    Plans materials and personnel and keeps the plan consistent when an event changes.

  • Change propagation

    A change to an event updates kitchen, purchasing, packing lists and hardware in one step.

  • Invoicing

    Turns an event into an invoice in one click and shows figures per event.

  • Quote widget demo
