FoodFlow is developed by AXION Solutions, bringing together software engineering and hands-on food operating experience.
“I've worked with ERP for 35 years, as a software house and as a food operator. Nothing like this has existed in the 50 years since ERP arrived.”

Is FoodFlow off-the-shelf or custom-built?
FoodFlow is a food-specific ERP that is already running. We tailor the screens, workflows and business rules to each business, without starting from scratch.
Do we need to replace our accounting software?
No. FoodFlow runs the operation and is its single source of truth. Payroll, the general ledger and tax reporting stay in your accounting software, which gets clean data from FoodFlow.
Does FoodFlow include AI?
Yes. AXIS is built in. Ask about orders, stock, use-by dates and customers in plain English, and have emailed orders drafted for your team to check and save.
What does it cost?
Two parts, both agreed before we start. A fixed fee to set FoodFlow up for your business, with a guaranteed go-live date. Then one monthly licence for the whole business, with unlimited users.
Can FoodFlow support our particular food business?
That is what the fit review is for. We look at how you run, show you the workflows that matter, and agree what is included before we start.
