Everyone picks their own meal. One delivery. Zero admin.

This isn't a shared platter or a fixed menu. Every person orders exactly what they want from the restaurants chosen for that order — and everything arrives together, labelled with their name.

One delivery, four steps

Step 1

Create a group order

Set a delivery window and a cutoff time — "order by 10:00 for delivery at 12:00". Add a budget per person if you want one.

Step 2

Everyone orders individually

Each person opens their own Ordit account, sees the group-order calendar and the restaurants chosen for that day, and joins the order before the cutoff time.

Step 3

Everyone picks their own meal

Each person picks their own meal, with allergen information shown on the menu. You see who has ordered and what they have spent in the Admin Portal.

Step 4

Everything arrives together

Every meal arrives at the agreed time, in insulated bags, each labelled with the person's name.

Why Group Ordering works

Built for team culture

Free food is the perk employees value most — Group Ordering makes it work for every diet, every cuisine and every headcount.

No compromise

No "we'll order pizza for the office." Each person picks from the restaurants chosen for that order — dietary needs and allergies included.

One delivery, on time

All meals arrive together by cargo bike. No staggered arrivals, no cold food — the team eats together.

Names on every meal

Every container is labelled with the person's name. No guessing, no mix-ups, even for large groups.

Zero admin

Nobody tracks who paid or files an expense report. One monthly invoice covers every group order.

The recurring team lunch. Set it once, it repeats.

Set a group order to repeat on the schedule you choose: weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or any pattern that suits the team. Ordering usually opens the Friday before and closes at 10:00 on the day of delivery, then everything arrives together in a 30-minute slot, delivered by Ordit's own fleet.

How teams use it:

  • A subsidised daily lunch — the cafeteria alternative with a rotating restaurant list
  • A weekly team lunch on in-office days to make the commute worth it
  • One restaurant per ~30 orders, extendable to two or more options

Group Ordering by the numbers

Ordit already runs team lunches at serious volume, with the logistics and the billing handled end to end.

2,000+

Orders a day

Ordit batches 2,000+ orders a day

Group orders run at lunchtime and vehicles are sized to the order, so a 300-person all-team lunch is routine.

30 min

Delivery window

Every group order lands in a 30-minute window

A dedicated team monitors every batch live, so the whole order lands together and on time.

1

One monthly invoice

Every group order lands on one invoice

No collecting cash, no expense claims to process: one invoice with 30-day payment terms covers it all.

Three ways teams use Group Ordering

Every team sets it up differently. Three examples: a weekly routine, a one-off celebration, and a standing lunch that replaces a canteen. In each, everyone signs in, picks their own meal and it all arrives together. Recurring orders run themselves; a one-off is arranged with your account manager.

Weekly team lunch

The Friday routine

Runs the same slot every Friday. Your team knows the drill — everyone signs in, and meals arrive together between 12:00 and 12:30, labelled and ready.

  • Recurring:set it once as a recurring group order and it repeats on your schedule.
  • Predictable:same window, same drop-off point, every time.
  • Worth the commute:a shared lunch turns an office day into one people come in for.
Department celebration

Big wins, big groups

Arranged with Ordit for the day: 30 people pick from the restaurants chosen for that order, with a £15-per-person cap. Everything lands in the boardroom between 12:00 and 12:30.

  • Budget cap:a per-person limit, agreed when the order is set up and enforced at checkout.
  • Scales up:vehicles are sized to the order; groups run from 2 to 300+ people.
  • Expense coded:the whole order carries one expense code.
The cafeteria alternative

A canteen without the kitchen

No canteen on site? Run a recurring group order on the days you choose: everyone picks their own meal from the restaurants set up for your company, and it all arrives together. No kitchen infrastructure, staffing or food waste.

  • Variety:the restaurants rotate between orders, so it beats a fixed canteen menu.
  • Your budget:set the per-person cap; anything above it goes on employees' own cards.
  • One invoice:the whole programme lands on one monthly invoice.

A budget per head, an invoice per month

Cap spend per person, e.g. £15 a meal, or leave it open. The limit is enforced at checkout, expense codes are captured at order creation, and everything flows to SAP Concur or Workday via a daily SFTP feed.
