How It Works in Practice
Catering companies face a unique labelling challenge. You prepare food in one location, transport it to another, and serve it to guests who may have allergies you don't know about. Every canapé, buffet item, boxed meal, and platter needs accurate allergen information; under Natasha's Law, pre-packed items need full compliant labels.
The logistics of event catering make manual labelling unreliable. Menus change per event, recipes vary per client, and the team preparing the food may not be the team serving it. When allergen information lives in a chef's head or a printed spreadsheet, mistakes are inevitable.
LabelFood brings structure to this chaos. Your product catalogue, covering every canapé, platter, boxed meal, and buffet item you offer, lives in the cloud with its allergen profile. When the prep team labels items, they scan the barcode and a compliant label prints with the product name, all 14 allergens highlighted, use-by date, batch code, and a QR code. The information is accurate regardless of who's working the shift.
For high-volume events, batch print handles the load. Preparing 200 canapés for a corporate reception? Select the items, set quantities, and the device prints all labels in sequence. Your team labels as they prep, and every item is compliant before it goes in the van.
At the venue, the labels serve your guests directly. Buffet labels let guests with allergies see what's safe at a glance. For smaller items where a full label won't fit, the QR code gives instant access to complete ingredient and allergen details on their phone. This protects your guests and protects your reputation.
Wedding and corporate events demand extra precision. A single allergen mistake at a high-profile event can have serious consequences and spread fast through word of mouth. LabelFood ensures accuracy because allergens come from the product catalogue, not from memory. When you update a recipe, the change flows to every device. When you add a new menu item, its allergen profile is set up once.
Multi-event operations get full visibility from the cloud dashboard. Each event or venue has its own activity log: labels printed, waste recorded, staff actions timestamped. You see everything from one place, whether you're catering one event or ten on the same day.
The device works offline at any venue. No WiFi needed. Labels print and waste is recorded on-site, then syncs to the cloud when connectivity returns. The full audit trail means you can prove exactly what was labelled and when, giving you and your clients confidence in every event.
For caterers, the Food Hygiene Rating is commercial as well as regulatory. Your prep kitchen is inspected and scored like any other premises, and one of the three areas an Environmental Health Officer marks is confidence in management: the records and systems behind your food safety. Corporate clients and wedding venues increasingly ask for the same evidence before they sign. Because every label and waste record in LabelFood is timestamped and attributed, that evidence is already written, whether it is an inspector or a client asking for it.
Label the job in the unit before it goes on the van, or print on site as it plates up. The terminal keeps working at venues with no Wi-Fi, and every item is already logged when the client asks for their paperwork.
A label costs under 1p. Handwriting it costs hours every week.

Official Label Rolls
Most kitchens try third-party rolls first. They jam, they tear on removal, and they don't hold in cold storage.
Our rolls are made specifically for the LabelFood Printer SV2 — tested in real kitchen conditions, with a removable adhesive that stays put in the freezer and peels cleanly every time. At 0.87p per label, they also cost significantly less than ordering custom labels from a supplier. See how the cost compares →
Print stays sharp in cold displays, fridges, and hot prep surfaces. No fading or smearing mid-service.
Made to fit the LabelFood printer exactly. No jams, no mis-feeds, no wasted labels.
