Location Search & Analysis
Did you know that 70% of a restaurant or café’s success is its location?
Location analysis takes into consideration local clients, transport links, competitors’ analysis, footfall and the buying power of potential clients.
Countless restaurants fail each year due to location issues and lack of footfall.
We are a team of experts in the European, Middle Eastern and Asian market, we understand the diverse needs across multiple markets and how location fits into the bigger picture, on a local scale.
Design & Fit Out
Ready to deliver your winning concept?
Design and fit out is the process from layout to colour scheme and from equipment sourcing to fitting – it’s where everything “comes to life”.
Choosing the right design and fit out company is important as your interiors are your most accessible brand messages. The right design and fit out company will bring clients to your door and will ensure the equipment chosen is of a quality which will give you a generous return on investment.
Our creative team are experts at designing and fitting outlets across a wide range of budgets and briefs.
Space & Layout Optimisation
Is your outlet laid out strategically?
Site Layout is the way your outlet is designed in terms of location of equipment, tables, kitchen, chairs, etc
A strategically laid out outlet flows better and quicker during service time. Staff will find their work less challenging and more satisfying. In turn your clients will feel you are well organised and will feel looked after and satisfied with your service. This in turn will mean no delays, no hiccups in the operation and a potential saving on costs
We can review your operation, highlighting areas of excellence and areas of improvement.
Menu Creation
We can assist in all aspects of menus, from layout to pricing, printing and design.
Staff Retention & Training
Our consultants can assist with recruitment, training, on-boarding, conflict resolution and more to ensure the talent you find continue to deliver high standards and are motivated.
Supplier Sourcing
How do you know which supplier will provide you both competitive prices and quality?
Supplier sourcing is the selection of the best suppliers on the market offering the most competitive prices.
Suppliers are like family. The right one will stay with you for a lifetime.
Having a good relationship with a supplier is important and once that happen, you are working with the same vision in mind.
With years of experience, we are very well linked to excellent suppliers in the market and have an established relationship with them.
We can help you to foster lasting relationships that would yield beneficial financial results.
Operations Manual Creation
What to do, when to do it and how to do it?
An operations manual is the guide to every detail and process for successfully running an outlet.
Staff at all levels will have a step by step guide to their daily duties which is essential for consistency in both service and food production.
Operations manuals ensure consistency at all levels. They ensure the company vision, goals, rules and regulations are understood by all staff.
We have prepared detailed operations manuals for a number of operations around the world that have improved their communication, consistency and revenue.
