Preface
Lately we have a new trend in business, it works in culinary part and we call it cafe business. Good food, cozy place and nice environment is kind of parameter that needed in this kind of business .This trend is drive by society where people choose not only good food or cheap price but also instagramable place. This trend spread up not only in big cities but also in small city. It has drive money flow in big part. Property, event organizer, agriculture, food stock, media and fashion are involved in this industry.
As a trend, the food business is such has bubble effect where it has pattern. At the first pattern we know that food industry will consume much of trend influence. At the second pattern we know that food industry is evolved along with the trend that rise up. But in one point it has maximum point where the trend ends. So it will affect the industry stuck and go down.
Why it always happened a bubble effect in trending industry such cafe industry?
That's caused unefficiency budget flow. Most owners easily get carried away and spend large amounts of money on something that un primary. They focuse on budgeting decoration, equipment and other acessoris that they can easily do without. We concern about this caused a lot of unnecessary thing waste on this business.
So whats the strategy to win through competition in cafe industry?
Save the cost
The way you save the costs of industry is similar with another. You need to divide the cost in 3 priority 1st priority is for most important thigs that can not be replaced by others. Such ingridients, fresh food, good cheff and nice place. 2nd parametere are the replaceable parametere. Here we can find substitute from another part such you change menu card in to cheap one or you change fresh flower with artificial one. 3rd part is a part where it just an acessoris that doesnt quite needed. Such anchandelier, stage for performance and band equipment.
It's ok to have all anything complete in one moment. But it will save your cost if you can loan some accessoris in your cafe. And in the next phase where your cafe business have earn big profit you can get your own equipmment
Find The Source
You have your vendors supplying you whatever you need – meat, fish, vegetables and other produce. But if you can find a farmers market or a good market for produce, you should cut back on your supplies from vendors and make a couple of trips to these markets. In addition to reducing costs, you’re also getting produce fresh.
It’s also a great way for your staff to engage with customers and talk about the food. do some vote or research from exhibition to find out is your price properly with your expectation provit or not.
