A food-festival app could help visitors explore traders, save favourites and find stalls on the site. Its usefulness depends on clear menus, current locations and practical information from participating businesses.
Traders need a controlled way to update items and mark sold-out products. Allergen information should come from the responsible food business, with a direct enquiry route where needed. A saved dish should not be presented as reserved stock.
Pilot a manageable site map and test it on the ground. Include a trader moving pitch and a menu item becoming unavailable. If ordering is added later, it needs a separate capacity and fulfilment process. Discovery and route planning can be valuable without prematurely turning the guide into a complete delivery system.
