restaurant operation deep dive
From space utilization, menu development, sourcing, pricing and staffing, our experience in best practices will help avoid costly mistakes many inexperienced restaurateurs make.

We will dig deep into the financial data you have, from sales mix to Profit & Loss sheets, with the goal of providing you with a more focused understanding of how and where your revenue is being used. The end goal is for the owner/management to be intimately and acutely aware of cash flow from the point of sale to the end of month outgoing payments to make all operational decisions critically.
