The last five years have presented significant headwinds for the casual dining sector, resulting in dramatic reductions EBITDA and cash flow for many. This has created a challenge across the Private Equity funds invested in the sector, resulting in extended holding periods and the need to look for transformation solutions to drive incremental value.
In this taxing environment, innovations used across other sectors, such as consumer goods and manufacturing, have provided proven approaches that can be leveraged effectively for casual dining.
With every indication that times will become more challenging in the short term, can any organisation in the hospitality sector defer the potential benefits from these approaches and the positive impacts on EBITDA and cashflow?
This paper covers:
- Why has casual dining become so much more challenging?
- How have other sectors faced into similar challenges?
- How have casual dining organisations already benefited?
- How can you quickly drive improvements to EBITDA, cashflow and service?
