Software for mobile donut vans and stalls
A donut van or stall lives or dies on batch math: how many dozen you fry, how much you sell, and how much comes home unsold at the end of the day. CartFlow gives mobile donut businesses a way to track ingredient stock (flour, oil, toppings, boxes) against recipes, book the markets and events you're trading, roster whoever's helping fry and serve, and see real profit once cost of goods and the site fee are accounted for. It's built with the same batch-and-waste logic that donut vendors think in — not adapted from a sit-down bakery's till system. Whether you're a single van doing weekend markets or you've added a second unit for festival season, CartFlow keeps stock, staff and profit visible without needing to reconcile a notebook against a bank statement at the end of the month.
Who it's for
- Mobile donut van and trailer operators
- Market stall donut and fried-dough vendors
- Businesses managing multiple flavour lines and topping stock
- Owners who want to know real profit per batch, not just per day

Why it works
Batch and topping stock tracked properly
Recipes link flour, oil, sugar and toppings to each flavour, so stock deducts accurately per batch.
Waste that gets tracked, not shrugged off
Log unsold stock at day's end and see which flavours or events cause the most waste.
Every market and event booked
Plan your trading calendar and pack the van the same way every time with a template.
Helpers rostered per event
Assign fryers and servers to specific bookings so everyone knows the plan.
Profit per flavour and per event
See which flavours actually make money once ingredient cost is factored in.
Works offline at markets with no signal
Keep recording sales and stock even without a reliable connection.

See featureCommon questions
Can it track stock down to individual flavours?
Yes. Each flavour has its own recipe, so toppings and fillings are tracked separately from the base batter.
How does waste tracking work?
Log unsold stock at the end of trading in a couple of taps — CartFlow shows waste trends by flavour and event over time.
Can I plan how many batches to make for a big event?
Yes, stock forecasting estimates quantities based on past events of similar size.
Is this only for donuts, or other fried dough too?
It works for any batch-based mobile food product — churros, fritters, waffles — the recipe logic is the same.
Can more than one van use the same account?
Yes, add each van as a location and see combined or per-van profit.
Is there a free plan?
Yes, CartFlow is free to start with no card required.
