The Challenge
GEODIS is a global logistics company with over 140 locations across the United States. 40 people across the company regularly ordered food for employees, but each had a different ordering and tracking process. This led to disorganization, wasted time, and a lack of reporting. GEODIS needed a way to organize all the company’s food spend into one place.
Ensuring meal variety
GEODIS had a distributed group of employees ordering food for different purposes and using different payment methods. It was hard to keep track of everything.
Endless piles of paperwork
With each employee using different methods to order food for their events, tracking down invoices and receipts could take hours.
Time-consuming reporting
The company wanted to be able to report on who ordered what and why. With no centralized reporting, understanding their total food spend was difficult.
When we had to deal with multiple restaurants, accounting was a struggle. Now, I have all the reporting I need and can easily pull data on who’s ordering what, where, and how much in a matter of minutes.

SOLUTION & RESULTS
With their ezCater corporate account, all of Geodis’s food spend is now under one platform with a centralized ordering system. They have automated reporting and access to over 100,000 restaurants nationwide, resulting in better company-wide food spend and order visibility. Plus, the employees tasked with ordering save for several hours each week.
More variety
Each campus can easily log on to ezcater.com, enter their address, and find a variety of local restaurants that deliver. Campuses no longer have to rely on the same options.
One centralized solution
All of the company’s food ordering is finally in one place, which makes it simple to understand who’s ordering what (and why) in just a few minutes.
Streamlined processes
The company is now saving hours of time that used to be spent tracking people down to get invoices processed and receipts sent to the right places.
