Use the Pantry List feature to save you time in finding items, especially if the supplier you’re buying from has hundreds of products in their store.

Once your order is created, it will appear on your dashboard’s Upcoming Orders with an Order Reference number that starts with SYD-** (if your FBU-registered address is in Sydney) or MEL-** (if in Melbourne).



**The Order Reference has since been updated to QLD, NSW or VIC.
