# 3. Build Your Menu

> Add your menu to storekit by importing from another platform, syncing from your POS, uploading a CSV spreadsheet, or building it manually in the dashboard.

There are several ways to get your menu into storekit. Choose the method that best fits your situation.

<Note>
  **Using a POS system?** If you're planning to connect a POS like Zonal, Lightspeed, or Deliverect, you may want to skip this step and [set up your POS integration first](/guides/menu/pos-menu-sync). Your menu will sync automatically from the POS.

## Import from Existing Platforms

If you already have a menu on another platform, we can import it for you. Supported sources include:

| Delivery Platforms | POS / Ordering Systems | Website Builders |
| ------------------ | ---------------------- | ---------------- |
| Deliveroo          | Clover                 | Google Business  |
| Just Eat           | Revel                  | Squarespace      |
| Uber Eats          | Toast                  | Wix              |
| Foodhub            | SkyTab                 |                  |
| Ritual             | RedCat                 |                  |
|                    | Flipdish               |                  |
|                    | Gloria Food            |                  |
|                    | Mr Yum                 |                  |
|                    | Popmenu                |                  |

This is the fastest way to get started if you have an existing menu on any of these platforms.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Request Import">
    Contact storekit support or use the menu import option in your dashboard to request an import from your delivery platform.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Provide Your Listing URL">
    Share the URL of your restaurant on the delivery platform (e.g., your Deliveroo restaurant page).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review Imported Menu">
    Once imported, review the menu in your dashboard. Check that categories, products, prices, and modifiers are correct.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enhance Your Menu">
    Add high-quality images, update descriptions, and add any missing allergen information. Imported menus may not include all details.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Menu imports typically complete within a few minutes. In some cases, imports can take up to 24-48 hours. You can continue setting up other parts of your store while waiting.
</Tip>

## Sync from POS

If you use a POS system, sync your menu instead of building it manually:

| Integration Type                         | How It Works                                         |
| ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| **Push sync** (Deliverect, Stream)       | Menu changes sync automatically from your POS        |
| **Pull sync** (Zonal, Lightspeed, Syrve) | Trigger syncs manually or on a schedule              |
| **Manual linking** (TISSL, Comtrex)      | Create menu in storekit, link products via PLU codes |

## CSV Import

For bulk import from a spreadsheet:

1. Download the CSV template from **Menu > Import**
2. Fill in your products with names, prices, descriptions, and categories
3. Upload the completed CSV file
4. Review and confirm the import

[CSV Import guide →](/guides/menu/csv-import)

## Build Manually

To create your menu from scratch:

1. Go to **Menu** in the dashboard
2. Create **Categories** to organise your products (e.g., Starters, Mains, Drinks)
3. Add **Products** to each category with name, price, description, and image
4. Set up **Modifier Groups** for customisation options (sizes, toppings, sides)
5. Add **Allergen & Dietary** information for each product

For detailed instructions on each step, see the [Menu guide](/guides/menu/overview).

### Quick Tips

* **Images matter** - Products with photos convert significantly better. See [Product Photography](/guides/menu-engineering/product-photography).
* **Front-load descriptions** - Only the first \~60 characters show on the menu list.
* **Allergens are required** - In the UK and EU, allergen information is a legal requirement.

## After Import

Whichever method you use, review your menu before going live:

* [ ] All products have correct prices
* [ ] Images are high-quality and appetising
* [ ] Modifiers have correct min/max settings
* [ ] Allergen information is complete and accurate
* [ ] Products are in the right categories and order
