Think about it…. are you YOU trade ready?

You have been offered or found a food premises that was a going concern before the COVID-19 lockdown, but could not re-open due to unforeseen reasons. One question needs to be answered before you buy/takeover this hopefully once in a lifetime find.

Why could this place not re-open?

• Bad management?
• Poor cashflow prior to shut down?
• Site position?
• Or just bad luck?

Tony Schindler Consulting is offering to site visit with a view to assist you in the decision.

Are you TRADE READY?

• Does the décor leave a little to be desired and is dated?
• Is the equipment working and suitable for your new menu?
• Do you just need advice on where to, from here?
• Promoting a Gift Card? – the revenue from a gift card to help keep you afloat. Offer the same deal or a similar deal via social or email.
• Look for opportunities – what can we do that should’ve been done before? e.g. Controlling costs, offering the customers what they want, not what you want.
• Update/revamp the menu and widen your margins. Trim your menu down & take off those things that were not selling.
• Can you better manage food costs? Accounting programs are a great start.
• Update your hiring & training methods? Hire the right people, not because they “have the look”.
• Update your training manuals and/or methods.

Those and many other queries that you have will be answered in our informative visit.
