Foodservice & Restaurant Consulting
It’s no secret restaurants fail, notably within three years. When they do, it’s commonly for three reasons: poor financial management, inconsistent product and service, and inadequate menu offerings. Our restaurant consulting services can boost the odds of success. Why? We bring more than 35 years of experience owning, operating, growing and selling successful foodservice concepts, which means that we know what works and what doesn’t.
- At the restaurant entry level, we analyze and compare key financial metrics with industry standards, including revenues, food and labor costs, operating expenses, and profits. We test operational assumptions and identify root causes of potential problems.
- At the intermediate level, for businesses with a preliminary track record, we assemble a targeted plan that presents solutions for identified impediments to growth potential.
- For more advanced foodservice businesses, we assess overall operational performance beyond financials, assessing marketing, menu, image and brand, and restaurant ambiance.
Regardless of the life stage of the restaurant, enlisting experienced restaurant consulting can be what it takes to enjoy long-term, sustained success. Contact Visa Business Plans today.
