Title: Looking for a Developer to Customize the Karenderia System for a Franchise Model
Description:
Hello everyone,
I’m looking for an experienced developer familiar with the Karenderia system to make advanced modifications. The goal is to adapt the system to operate in a franchise model, allowing multiple restaurants/franchisees to work under centralized management.
Required Skills
The ideal candidate should have proven experience in:
• PHP: Essential for customizing Karenderia’s code.
• MySQL: Ability to modify or create database tables and queries.
• HTML, CSS, and JavaScript: For customizing layouts and user interfaces in the system and app.
• Payment Gateway APIs: Integration with payment gateways (preferably popular options in Portugal, such as Multibanco and MB WAY).
• Mobile Frameworks (Optional): For deeper customizations to the app.
• Multi-Store Systems: Experience in structuring systems with multi-level management is highly valued.
Required Modifications
Multi-Level Administration
• Franchisor Panel: Create a global admin panel for the franchisor to view and manage:
• Consolidated sales reports from all franchisees.
• General settings applicable to all restaurants (such as franchise fees, branding, etc.).
• Control over franchisee permissions and access.
• Franchisee Panel: Set up independent panels for each restaurant, restricted to:
• Managing menus and prices.
• Handling orders and deliveries.
• Viewing individual sales reports.
Centralized Reporting
• Develop detailed reports for the franchisor, including:
• Total revenue (broken down by restaurant/franchisee).
• Royalties generated by each unit.
• Performance statistics for specific areas.
Exclusive Operation Areas
• Configure the system to assign specific operation zones to each franchisee (based on postal codes or regions).
• Restrict orders in each zone to the designated restaurant.
Royalty and Franchise Fee Calculation
• Implement an automated system to calculate and deduct royalties based on each restaurant’s revenue.
• Reports detailing the total franchise fees owed.
Mobile App Customization
• Modify the mobile app to allow customers to:
• Automatically identify available restaurants based on their location.
• Display franchise branding in the app.
Additional Features
• Customize templates to include franchise branding (logo, colors, etc.).
• Improve the process for registering new franchisees (optional).
If you have experience with this type of customization or know someone who has worked on a similar project, please contact me at (PI removed).
I’m happy to discuss technical details and project terms.
There are authors (@ki-themes) who offer custom work, or you can hire developers from freelancing platforms like Upwork. It would be helpful if you mention your budget here.
Please note that the prices on sites like CodeCanyon or ThemeForest are a fraction of the actual development cost. The true cost to develop these items is often 100 times more than the listed price. If you expect to get custom work for that low price, it’s simply not realistic. Developing items for Envato platforms involves significant time, effort, and resources, and authors recover these costs through multiple sales.
Thank you for the explanation! I understand that custom development involves significant time and resources, and I appreciate the transparency about the costs.
I’m willing to discuss a fair budget based on the scope of the work. Could you suggest a starting point for this type of customization? Additionally, if you know reliable developers who specialize in Karenderia or similar systems, I would greatly appreciate their recommendations
You’re very welcome!
Hourly rates for PHP developers on freelancing websites usually start at $15+ and can go above $45+ for full-stack development. @ki-themes is an experienced author who offers custom work.
I’m specifically looking for someone with proven experience in working on the Karenderia system. It’s important for me to ensure the developer understands its structure and can handle advanced customizations like multi-level management and reporting.
I’ll contact @ki-themes to discuss the project, but if you or someone else can recommend developers who have demonstrated expertise in Karenderia, I would greatly appreciate it.
Why would you not start by asking the author? No one is going to know it better than them.
That said, without looking at the starting point in more detail I would expect you to be looking at tens of thousands of $ to do all of this esp if you are doing it to earn from through franchises
Thank you for your feedback. I understand your point, and I have already contacted the author, Basti, about this. He has quoted approximately $1,000 for the modifications but mentioned he wouldn’t be available to start before June 2025.
While I am exploring alternatives to move forward sooner, I’d appreciate further insights. Could you elaborate on why you believe the cost would be in the tens of thousands? Are there specific challenges or requirements you think might significantly increase the cost?
