Food Labelling Software for Restaurants and Hospitality Teams
The Prep Tag is all-in-one food labelling software for UK restaurants, cafés and catering teams — prep labels, allergen formatting, audit trails and multi-site control from one platform.
What is food labelling software?
Food labelling software connects your product data, label templates and kitchen printers so teams print compliant prep labels quickly. Unlike a standalone printer, it manages allergens, audit records and updates across devices and sites.
How it differs from a label printer alone
A printer produces labels. Food labelling software controls what appears on them, who printed them and how product information stays accurate across your operation.
Key features hospitality teams need
Label templates and prep workflows
Day date, use first, hot hold, freezer and defrost labels are available through configurable templates tied to your product library.
Natasha's Law allergen formatting
Store allergen and ingredient data centrally so labels and product records stay aligned with UK requirements.
HACCP audit trails and print logs
Every label is logged with staff, timestamp and quantity. Export reports for EHO inspections and internal compliance reviews.
Multi-site product management
Update products once and sync across every connected site — ideal for groups, franchises and catering operations.
