community food hub

We have hosted the application community food hub in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about community food hub:

The Community Food Hub software provides a web-based ordering system for community food coops and veg box schemes.

The system works on a cyclical basis. At the start of an ordering cycle, suppliers update their products. Customers may then log in, choose a collection day and location, and add goods to their baskets. Once the customer submits an order, they receive an email invoice. Payment is made on collection.

The system supports cycles of arbitrary length (for example: weekly, fortnightly), multiple collection days and locations per cycle, and veg and fruit boxes in addition to individual goods.

The system provides reports for suppliers, and for collection day activities such as packing boxes and receiving payment. Customers can receive credits and refunds between cycles.

Community Food Hub uses PHP (up to 5.3) with a MySQL database. It is based on the Local Food Coop software (http: //sourceforge.net/projects/foodcoop), with support for box schemes in the UK.

Audience: Non-Profit Organizations, Agriculture.
User interface: Web-based.
