You may be having a restaurant you have been running for a while on a smaller scale and you now have more customers than you ever had before, which is great news! However, now, the place is overflowing and to retain your customers you have to expand and refurbish your restaurant, so that you can cater to more people. This would also mean expanding your staff and getting new equipment and furniture. How do you go about it?
Expanding the place
What you will need to do is to come up with a plan to expand your premises. How are you going to do it? Break one of the walls and extend the area? Or you can even get a garden terrace or a verandah. Once you decide what kind of an extension you are going to do, you can then decide on the changes that will be needed to increase your restaurant’s capacity. If you need industrial furniture, for example, there are companies that have just what you will need to get the necessary new furniture for your restaurant. Think of a plan for the place and what kind of furniture and equipment you will need to get to make the place bigger?
What about personnel?
You would also at the same time think about what kind of staffing changes you would have to make. Do you need staff with a different skillet or do you want to hire more staff to cope with the volume of extra business you are having? Are you happy and satisfied with the current staff? Once you think about what changes you want to make and what you want to keep the same, you can start hiring new staff.
Give it that look
In addition to getting the industrial furniture you need, you can also think of ways of making your restaurant look attractive to your customers and they will keep wanting to come back to the soothing and happy environment and your friendly service. What kind of special decor are you going to get and what about some sparkling new cutlery? Think of the overall look of the place and do a bit of interior decor to give it that beautiful new look you want.
A great start
As you refurbish your restaurant and reorganise it to suit your new needs and your customers’ comfort, you have taken a giant stride to make your restaurant one of those top quality ones that people will want to eat at regularly! Don’t forget to add some yummy food as well!
