In the clouds
Double the software, yet half the work – Planglow’s new collaboration with Saffron brings you seamless software integration.

If our fancy labelling software, LabelLogic Live, doesn’t already tick all of your boxes, we have some news which will be sure to seal the deal. Yes, that’s right, Planglow have partnered with Fretwell-Downing Hospitality, the catering industry’s leading Management Software solution to bring you seamless data management. Gone are the days of monotonous data duplication, thanks to this collaboration you can export your recipes from Saffron into LabelLogic Live, at the click of a button!

We know that you might have some questions about what this means for you. Hopefully, this Q&A will answer those…

How does it work?

We have teamed up with Fretwell-Downing Hospitality to build a tool which integrates all nutritional data from Saffron’s kitchen management platform with LabelLogic Live’s label printing software. Meaning that you no longer have to duplicate data entry of your menus – all that is needed is one upload for both systems. 

Integrating the two platforms is effortless. All that you need to do is visit the Recipes page in Saffron and click the button labelled “Export Product Label”. Doing so will send that recipe data to LabelLogic live instantly. After this, you should be able to find the exported product information in your account's Product Centre. No need for data duplication!

How will this change my existing account?

You will not notice any changes to your LabelLogic Live account. The only difference is the additional “Export Product Label” button on Saffron’s Recipe page. After exporting your recipe information from Saffron, it will appear in the data library’s product list on your LabelLogic Live account.

Will this make LabelLogic Live more expensive?

No, there are no additional charges on either LabelLogic Live or Saffron.

What if I’m a LabelLogic Live customer, but I don’t use Saffron?

If you don’t use Saffron, then you will see no changes to your account. If you need a Catering Management Solution, there has never been a better time to give their software a try. You can contact Fretwell-Downing Hospitality today to see if Saffron is the right system for your business.

What if I’m a Saffron customer but aren’t yet using LabelLogic Live?

Likewise, if you aren’t using LabelLogic Live then your Saffron account will not change. However, if you are interested in finding out how our cloud-based labelling software can make labelling easier for you, why not get in touch with our expert team?

Will this work if I am using LabelLogic but not LabelLogic Live?

Unfortunately, we can only offer this service to customers using LabelLogic Live. If you are using LabelLogic and would like to learn more about you can upgrade your existing package, visit www.labellogiclive.com.

Anything else that I need to know?

Saffron will export all of your nutritional data into LabelLogic Live every night meaning that your product lists are always up to date.

Please contact us if you have any questions about our recent collaboration with Saffron, food labelling software or any of our labels, packaging and services.
