📱 Upload Menu & Photos

Good photos = More orders. Learn how to upload the right way.

Step 1: Prepare Your Menu

Before uploading, organize your menu:

  1. List all items you serve
  2. Group by category (Pizza, Pasta, Drinks, Desserts, etc)
  3. Set your FoodHub prices (usually 5-10% lower than Foodpanda)
  4. Take/find photos for each (see Photo Tips below)
  5. Write short, appetizing descriptions (2-3 sentences)
💡 Tip: Start with 10-15 best-sellers. Add more later as you get orders.

Step 2: Photo Requirements

📸 Perfect Photo Format

Resolution
1080 × 1080px (square) or 4:3 ratio
File Formats
JPG, PNG, HEIC (iPhone photos work!)
File Size
Max 5MB (photos auto-compress)
Orientation
Portrait or square (NOT horizontal)
Quality
HD/High quality - clear, sharp, appetizing
💡 Pro Tip - iPhone HEIC Photos:
FoodHub automatically converts HEIC to JPG. Just upload your iPhone photos directly - no conversion needed!

Step 3: Photo Tips for More Orders

1. Good Lighting (Most Important)

Take photos in natural daylight near a window. Avoid harsh shadows. Bad lighting = customers skip your item.

2. Simple Background

Plain white or neutral background. No messy kitchen or busy tablecloths. Focus should be on the FOOD.

3. Food Looks Fresh & Appetizing

Garnish with fresh herbs. Add steam for hot food. Show the best angle. Make customers hungry.

4. Include Scale (Optional)

Hand, plate, or utensil in photo shows size. Example: burger with fries on plate shows portion.

5. Show Toppings/Ingredients

Pizza showing toppings. Burger showing cheese & patties. Pasta showing sauce. Real, not edited.

6. Consistency

All photos same style/background. Creates professional brand. Customers trust consistent presentation.

7. No Heavy Filters

Slight brightness/contrast OK. Heavy filters (Valencia, Nashvillhe, etc) = fake looking. Avoid.

8. Action Shots (Optional)

Customer enjoying food. Pizza fresh from oven. Coffee being poured. Creates emotion & desire.

Step 4: Upload to FoodHub
