Business & Profitability Optimization

Find where profit is leaking — and what to change first.

When an F&B business is busy but not producing the expected return, the problem is usually spread across pricing, product mix, purchasing, waste, labour, workflows, capacity and channel economics. I turn those moving parts into a prioritized operating and commercial plan.

Typical diagnostic areas

  • Revenue mix by product, category, channel and daypart.
  • Recipe/COGS accuracy and yield loss.
  • Contribution margin by item.
  • Menu engineering and product rationalisation.
  • Pricing architecture.
  • Supplier prices and purchasing terms.
  • Waste and inventory controls.
  • Labour deployment and throughput bottlenecks.
  • Delivery/aggregator economics.
  • SOPs and operational consistency.
  • Capacity constraints.
  • Promotions, discounting and retention economics.
  • Management KPI cadence.

Typical outputs

  • Business performance diagnostic.
  • Profit-leak map ranked by impact and effort.
  • Pricing and menu/product recommendations.
  • Supplier and cost-reduction opportunities.
  • Operational workflow changes.
  • 90-day improvement roadmap.
  • Management dashboard / KPI specification.
  • Implementation workshops with the operating team when required.
