Costa Coffee is often called the nation’s favourite coffee shop. Founded in London in 1971 by the Costa family, Costa is the largest and fastest growing coffee shop chain in the UK and operates stores in 30 countries throughout the world.

Costa adopted our Fully Managed EDI Service to streamline the ordering and invoicing process with their suppliers and stores.

"Costa have been extremely fortunate to form a fantastic relationship with EDI PLUS over the past five years. The processes and solutions that EDI PLUS demonstrated are extremely reliable and robust.  This allows for EDI PLUS to be our partner of choice for EDI providers with Costa Coffee."

McDonald's is the world's largest chain of hamburger fast food restaurants and has been our client for many years.

McDonald's use the EDI PLUS Fully Managed Service for to streamline their invoicing with over 100 suppliers. Suppliers use the EDI PLUS web portal to input their invoices. Our portal validates the invoices at the point of entry and, once accepted, converts the entered data into an electronic file which is then sent to the McDonald’s system for validation, approval and payment.

Whitbread, the largest UK hospitality business, are one of our oldest clients. Using a mixture of both our standard EDI and specialised e-invoicing services, Whitbread benefit from simpler processes and greatly reduced AP effort.

 It is not just the customer who benefits though. Suppliers also benefit from improved payment times and an electronic integration service that flexibly caters for a wide variety of formats and communications methods.
