The old saying goes, “you have to spend money to make money” – but
that doesn’t mean that as a restaurant owner, you want to spend a lot!
Here are a few quick, inexpensive upgrades you can make to your
restaurant to turn current customers to even bigger spenders! The items
featured below are all easy to use and inexpensive items to produce –
making your return on investment even higher. You can find these
products, and more, at a restaurant supply company – like Culinary Depot.
Panini
Grill – Panini’s are inexpensive to make, and fast to get out to your
customers! By adding a Panini grill to your kitchen equipment, you are
adding a menu item with high profit and returns. Also, this easy to use
machine will give your other kitchen equipment (and staff!) a rest.
Display
Case – People are impulse buyers! By adding a display case featuring
baked goods or to go items, you are adding one extra ‘sell’ before the
customer exits the restaurant. Also, many people are visual creatures
and won’t want desert until they see it!
Pretzel
Display – A pretzel display at your bar can increase profits during
game day! Beer is flowing and your football fans are getting hungry. A
prominently featured pretzel warming case will lure in these customers!
Pretzels have a low overhead cost, and will make you money!
Beverage
Dispensers – Beverage dispensers featuring premium drinks will lure
customers away from the soda machines, and give you even higher returns
on your investment! Iced coffees or flavored iced teas and lemonades
work best in these dispensers.
These
quick upgrades can quickly add profit to your restaurant or bar. By
adding easy to make food and displaying them openly you can cash in on
the impulse buyers that are already frequenting your restaurant.
