Run offsite catering like clockwork.

Manage delivery addresses, timing and routing for offsite and drop-off catering — all attached to the event, so your drivers have exactly what they need and nothing runs on a sticky note.

Capture the details

Every drop-off, planned to the minute.

Offsite jobs live or die on the details — the right address, the right arrival time, who to find when the driver gets there. LightCater keeps all of it on the event record, so the delivery sheet is built the moment the booking is, and nothing gets lost between the kitchen and the curb.

Run the route

Your drivers get exactly what they need.

When a job leaves the building, the whole plan goes with it. Each delivery prints a clean, driver-ready sheet with the address, timings and on-site contact — and because offsite work sits on the same calendar as your on-site events, dispatch sees the full day in one place instead of juggling a separate spreadsheet.

Driver-ready delivery details
Offsite jobs stay on the same calendar as on-site events
Nothing runs on a separate spreadsheet

How it works

From booking to the driver's hands.

Enable the add-on from the in-app Marketplace.
Add the delivery details to the event — address, arrival and pickup times, guest count, dietary and setup notes, on-site contact.
Send the driver off with a ready-made delivery sheet, while the job stays on your shared calendar.

There's nothing extra to set up per job. Once the add-on is on, every event can carry delivery details — and the driver-ready sheet is generated straight from what you already entered, no re-typing.

Turn it off anytime from the Marketplace; your LightCater events are never affected.

FAQ

Offsite & delivery questions.

What's captured for each delivery?

The delivery address, arrival and pickup timing, guest count, dietary and setup notes, and the on-site contact — all attached to the event so the whole plan stays in one place.

Do drivers get their own sheet?

Yes — each delivery produces driver-ready delivery details with the address, timings, on-site contact and setup notes, built straight from the event record.

Is it on the same calendar as on-site events?

Yes — offsite jobs sit on the same calendar as your on-site events, so you get one calendar for on- and off-premise work instead of a separate spreadsheet.
