In the product

Putting this into practice in France

Organise your French establishment's plan de maîtrise sanitaire (PMS): hygiene practices, HACCP-based procedures, traceability and responses to non-conformities. Keep the working methods in the language your team understands and the evidence available for the DDPP or the competent departmental service.

Service Public: restaurant hygiene requirements

Give staff access to the reviewed chart and instructions for uncertain requests. Keep the written French customer information appropriate for the establishment even when managers read the app in English.
Assess cross-contact separately from the presence of ingredients. Review the chart when a recipe changes and preserve the previously published version.

What it does

Per-dish matrix: Record the 14 mandatory-declaration allergens against each dish so your menu information stays accurate.
Customer-facing version: Publish a clear allergen view your team and customers can rely on — download it as a PDF or print it straight from the page.
May-contain, marked deliberately: Alongside contains-as-an-ingredient, mark a may-contain cross-contamination risk per dish — shown distinctly on the published version.
Versioned and kept: Each published version is kept, so you have a record of what was shown and when.
Owned by you: You maintain the matrix; ProCafe keeps it organised and exportable.
Menu board: Mark a dish sold out or running low for today and every phone, the web and the kitchen tablet show the same board. Items come from the allergen matrix, so nothing is typed twice, and a new day starts clean.
Supplier changes and dish review: Save supplier specifications and link ingredients or dishes. See dishes affected by a specification change, record each review and retain the earlier evidence. Published allergen information changes only through the separate matrix review workflow. Available on web and mobile with an internet connection.
