Catering Industries

Catering Industries is established in over 75 sites across Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne, and has over 700 employees. Started in 1977, they are one of Australia’s largest, most recognised catering providers.

The business used MYOB Premier for the better part of a decade but found it had its limitations due to a large number of transactions and users going through the system.

Catering Industries’ Trusted Implementation partner

Kilimanjaro Consulting is ANZ’s largest, most experienced, and most skilled team. When Catering Industries decided to implement MYOB Exo, they chose Kilimanjaro Consulting as their partner of choice. We worked to understand Catering Industries’ workflows and customise the software to meet their specific needs.   We follow a structured implementation methodology, and combined with the skills, knowledge and support of our team; we are able to guide you through the implementation process. At Kilimanjaro Consulting, we pride ourselves on being technology Sherpas, focused on building long-term relationships with clients and maintaining that partnership as their business grows. We take pride in Catering Industries’ success and look forward to our continued partnership. 

What set MYOB Exo apart was the opportunity to work with Kilimanjaro, and what set Kilimanjaro apart was our determination to find a solution to meet Catering Industries’ needs.

To understand the company’s requirements, Kilimanjaro set about undertaking a detailed review to be discussed with Catering Industries. “By assessing and understanding Catering Industries’ needs, we ensured we were on the same page and could provide the best solution possible”, said Kilimanjaro’s Managing Director Ronnie Baskind.

“With 75 facilities nationwide, it was critical for Catering Industries to attain accurate, detailed costings in each site’s P&L. The P&L systems are used so extensively and specifically, and this was all through the configuration of MYOB Exo. The knowledge of these requirements could only be attained through a thorough, detailed design phase”, said our Director of Operations, Jason Fegan.

This customisable configuration is the best part of MYOB Exo for Catering Industries.

How do I achieve a successful MYOB Exo implementation?

A successful MYOB Exo Implementation depends on 3 critical risk:
