The four rules food businesses in Turkey must follow, and how Posanto covers each one.
Mass catering venues must give consumers information on 14 allergen groups through the menu, a poster or a notice board. If something is missing at a ministry inspection, penalties apply.
In Posanto
All 14 allergen groups are set up in the system. When you add a product you tick the allergens it contains. The icons and details then show on the digital menu and the branch menu in the customer app.
Restaurants, cafés, patisseries and similar businesses must display their tariff and price list where customers can easily see and read it. Every item, including any service charge, must be stated clearly and prices must be in Turkish lira (₺).
In Posanto
When a customer picks a branch in the app, they see its menu and prices in ₺, with service charges and extra items. When you change a price, the new one shows on every channel.
Under the Ministry of Trade's 2026 amounts, each breach of price label and price list obligations carries an administrative fine of ₺3,973. The total can grow with the number of products or transactions.
In Posanto
When you change a price centrally, every branch and the digital menu show the same price. That lowers the risk of an old price being left up at one branch.
Under the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry's Food Business Information System (GIBS), food sales and mass catering venues must keep their business-specific QR code where consumers can see it.
In Posanto
We help with placing your food business QR code, and it works together with your branch page in the customer app.
