Beyond the Craft: Where venues go to find new suppliers

Ordermentum, Australian hospo’s favourite ordering and payments platform, is hosting the second annual Beyond the Craft from 22-26 May 2023. 

The five day, online-only event, is where Australia’s best suppliers and the amazing goods they sell will be showcased to 50,000+ quality venues from all around the country. 

It’s the easy way for venues to explore new, trending products, and to discover suppliers they’d otherwise never find. Venues will get: 

  • 5 x $100 vouchers venues to try new suppliers
  • Special offers from some of Australia’s best suppliers 
  • Access to new and exciting products (find out before anyone else!)
  • Free or discounted starter packs

Plus, when venues order from a new supplier during Beyond the Craft, they’ll go in the draw to win $3000 worth of produce. 

“We started Beyond the Craft as a way to connect hospitality venues with the amazing artisan and speciality suppliers in their area.” says Ordermentum CEO, Adam Theobald. 

“We realised that there wasn’t really an easy way for venues to discover and try a wide range of new products and suppliers, other than time-consuming trade events or other ad-hoc methods. But these days, it’s just as easy for a relationship to spark online, which then leads to longevity.’ 

The aim of the event is connection, and that’s why venues will be able to ask questions and (virtually) meet the people behind each supplier brand.

It really is a one stop yearly shop for anyone in hospitality and a way to bolster business for the rest of the year.
