This isn’t ordinary e-commerce
A payment is not the same as an order.
Christmas food orders carry considerably more information than an ordinary online purchase. Products have sizes, quantities, portions and preparation options. Customers order weeks or months ahead and need to choose a collection point, date and time. Kitchens need totals. Packing teams need individual order details. A conventional online shop can take the payment. Tenvito organises what happens next.
Ordinary e-commerce
Records a purchase. Sends an order confirmation. Lists individual transactions. Designed around dispatching parcels. Checkout is the end.
Tenvito Christmas order book
Captures a structured food order. Creates fulfilment information. Consolidates product requirements. Designed around preparing, collecting and delivering food. Checkout starts the operation.
One order. Every team connected.
From customer choice to collection.
No retyping forms. No chasing missing information. No piecing Christmas together from emails, calls and spreadsheets.
- Customer orders — Products, quantities, options, location, date and collection time — weeks or months ahead.
- Paid and confirmed — Card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Order and payment confirmations go out automatically.
- Order preparation — Product totals show what must be made — on screen, or printed for the premises.
- Team packs — Individual order information helps the team prepare each customer’s order.
- Collected or delivered — Orders can be searched and organised by collection date, time and delivery round.
What’s in the order book
Everything your Christmas order book needs.
Developed with real food merchants working to very specific requirements — the dates, cut-offs, product options and collection rules they actually needed, not a generic shop with a Christmas banner.
Structured orders
Capture products, quantities, sizes, preparation options and customer information properly the first time.
Ordering months ahead
Open the order book weeks or months before Christmas, so customers commit early and you can buy and plan against real numbers.
Dates, times and locations
Let customers choose the correct collection or delivery date, time and location.
Order cut-offs
Ordering stops when the kitchen needs final numbers — automatically, at the time you set, not when someone remembers to take a form down.
Quantity controls
Set the amount available. When it is sold, ordering closes automatically.
Paid in advance
Customers commit when they order. The business receives payment before purchasing, preparing or packing.
Automatic confirmations
Order and payment confirmations go to the customer on their own, with the collection details on them. Nobody types a reply.
Live product totals
See the total quantity required for every product instead of adding it up across individual orders.
Reports on screen and on paper
Production and packing information can be worked from a screen or printed out for the kitchen, the bench and the counter.
Packing, collection and delivery
Organise orders by customer, date, collection time and delivery round so the team can prepare for the rush.
Searchable order book
Find the order by customer, order number or collection details without searching through inboxes or paper forms.
Talking to customers
Message customers about their order, a change to a collection time, or the next thing you have coming.
The part that pays for itself
Every Christmas order is a customer you can market to all year — and again next Christmas.
The order book does not just get you through December. It builds a record of who bought, what they bought, what they spent and how to reach them — and that record is yours.
During the year, tell them the Easter range is open, the summer boxes are back, the celebration cakes are taking bookings.
Next Christmas, open the book to last year’s customers first, before anyone else hears about it.

What local businesses say
The order book has been developed with real food merchants working to very specific requirements. From independent producers to established food businesses, Tenvito has been built around how food orders are actually taken, prepared and handed over.
“Switching to a digital order book before Christmas was one of the best business decisions we have made!”
Tara Copplestone
Foxglove Cocktails
“We all left at 6pm on the button when normally on the 23rd it’s about 8pm when we’re getting out all because of the new system, it was very calm all day & everyone stuck to their time slots so it was much easier. Don’t know why he didn’t do this years ago! Lol Honestly though we can’t thank you enough, it was an absolute breeze & tomorrow going to be even easier…”

Questions
The things food businesses ask first.
Is this another online shop?
No. Tenvito can provide the customer ordering journey, but its real value is structuring each order for preparation, packing, collection and delivery.
Do we need a developer to set it up?
No. You set up the Christmas order book yourself from the Tenvito dashboard — products, dates, cut-offs and collection times. No developer, no agency, no new equipment on the counter.
Can Tenvito work alongside our existing website?
Yes. Add a Tenvito order button or link to the site you already have. Your main website stays exactly as it is.
Can customers choose collection dates and times?
Yes. Collection options, dates, service times and order cut-offs can be configured around your operation, and the order book can open weeks or months before the collection dates themselves.
Can we deliver as well as offer collection?
Yes. Collection and delivery can both be offered, each with their own dates, times and cut-offs, and orders can be organised by delivery round as well as by collection slot.
Can we limit Christmas products?
Yes. Product availability can be controlled so ordering stops when the available quantity has sold.
Do customers pay when ordering?
Yes. Tenvito supports online card payments, including Apple Pay and Google Pay through the connected payment provider, and order and payment confirmations go to the customer automatically.
Can it support a larger or multi-location business?
Yes. Talk to us about your products, kitchens, locations and collection process and we will work through how the Christmas order book should be built around it.
Do customers need an app?
No. Customers order through a web link. There is nothing to download.
How quickly can we begin?
A straightforward Christmas order book needs only the Setup Guide. Larger seasonal operations are worth planning and testing before the order book opens.
