Thinking of starting your food business or have just made the leap, you will need some direction and guidance to help you build a solid foundation for growth. We help you plan the future with realistic and practical ways to get you going on a positive trajectory.
This doesn't need to be a corporate style bible but it does need to be pragmatic, easy to understand and execute, with defined objectives that will frame how you intend to go to market and help you progress towards real goals. It also needs to flexible, especially at the beginning when you may have to adjust as you go.
As a registered food business, you will have to comply with a number of things, most notably Safer Food Better Business for Caterers, HACCP and Allergen Management. Your Environmental Health Officer (EHO) will want to see all of these and question you on implementation, during inspections.

This may also include expansion of the business into new markets, geographies or just creating more outlets. We do it at your pace and progressively to keep growth positive but under control.
It's always healthy to revisit your cost base to see where reductions can be made and how whilst still maintaining revenue and growth at the sae time. This is where profitability comes from. The reductions can come from elimination of waste, duplication, consolidation or through efficiency gains from automation for example. We help you delve into the possibilities to create the optimal balance.
The reasons for the need for change can be many and varied and not necessarily avoidable. Do not be afraid to 'pivot' if you think a change in direction is necessary. You may need to restructure the business in some way to create better market fit or alignment to regenerate the business. Dynamic change needs to be carefully managed and we guide you through the change process to ensure best outcomes.
We can help you build an effective Go To Market plan that creates awareness, attracts interest and draws in new clients using multiple channels and helps retain them long term as loyal customers earning you repeatable business. We'll look at pricing too and what makes sense for you to be competitive yet still make profit.
There are no guarantees in life and it is good business practice to anticipate events that may adversely impact your business. We help you discover the risks that you may face in the future and what actions you should take firstly to mitigate those risks and secondly what to do should they actually occur. This gives a plan of action should you ever need it and helps remove uncertainty.
