Food and beverage provides Clubs with substantial competitive advantages:

  • Positive Business Case. A well-performing F&B venue can translate into a substantial revenue stream for Clubs. 

  • Point of Difference. Hospitality and food & beverage service can be the differentiator that advances a good Club experience to an exceptional one. The ability to get it right in food and beverage can underpin a Club's individuality, attracting in-demand membership and increased visitation. In a crowded market, where Clubs vie for attention, a superior F&B offering becomes a key aspect of distinguishing one Club from another.

How a Company Hospitality Strategy Can Promote Workplace Wellbeing

We are seeing the emergence of mindfulness programs, health checks, exercise promotions and social programs to promote wellness for staff members but the one we want to focus on is food - the enabling of good food choices and providing hospitality through a well-planned food and beverage strategy that keeps your employees not only nourished but also satisfied and happy. Here are the three main ways a curated hospitality strategy for your arts, cultural or education institution can promote productivity and keep your employee’s happy. 

The Changing Face of Commercial Catering

The Changing Face of Commercial Catering

We are seeing a development of food strategies that optimise the food experience for the people using public or private spaces whether it be customers of an art centre, students of a university or employees at an institution. Our focus on these projects is the activation, connection and engagement of the food in these spaces to enhance the overall cultural and learning experience of the user as well as improve business performance. 

How Hospitality Can Support Your Corporate Company Ethos

How Hospitality Can Support Your Corporate Company Ethos

Food within institutions and companies has gained little airtime in the past when it was provided as an afterthought or company cafes were placed as a space filler, gaining business by default due to workers passing through. Nowadays we are seeing a growing body of institutions and companies who are incorporating food into their business strategy as a way of living up to their ethos. This is because food has and will continue to become an integral part of our lives as it is not only a necessity to us to have but the hospitality of food is a powerful way to stand by values if you provide it based on building relationships, supporting wellbeing and choosing brands/offers which align with your core values. Here are three major ways in which a hospitality strategy can be a part of your core values.

Food Halls and The 3 ‘C’s: Community, Changing Demographics and a Commitment to Quality

By 2019, the US food hall marketplace will have more than doubled in size in just four years and Europe who already has over 100 food halls dotted across it has double that figure in the pipeline. As with all trends, not every one of these food halls will succeed and reach business sustainability however, the past and present show that the food hall which aims to embrace the community it is in, model its masterplan based on the new consumer and provide top-tier food options based on quality as well as reputation are and will be placed in an advantageous position in Today's food and hospitality marketplace.

Make a Moment of It: Be the Experience Diners and Shoppers Want to Buy

Restaurant management platform, SevenRooms has been exploring the shift in consumer needs when it comes to dining out and the results have just come through in their recent report “Turning a Meal Into an Experience” to define exactly what hospitality can focus on to gain customer loyalty. With the focus shifting from food alone to an all-encompassing experience, understanding the key points that enhance or deflate an experience are key. Interestingly enough, a large part of the results can be applied to not only to the hospitality industry but the retail and entertainment industries also who are seeking to provide that ‘value-add’ - the experience, that cannot be found online. From making a space atmospheric to using a customer’s name, here’s what you can take home from the report: 

A New Type of Food Concept: The Food Collective

A New Type of Food Concept: The Food Collective

Saying that a food collective concept is a ‘new’ one might be technically incorrect but in the last year or so, their popularity has spiked. A food collective is a concept that contains more than one type of food option in the one outlet. You could consider it as a small-scale fresh food market or food hall where you can get a curated selection of food items like fresh made paninis, hand-tossed salads, daily desserts and local bakery goods all in one confined space.
