Management and staff training:
Gochef staff can provide business focused training for management and directors to show how management can affect profit by effective use of management accounts - close control of costs, GP, staffing levels, sales etc. We also routinely train people on the products they are preparing and selling, service styles and (seemingly rare in the hospitality industry) how to manage people.

Supplier audits:
To date we have never failed to save anyone money, and often we succeed in making savings well above our own fees. We recently saved a 6-strong hotel group c£80000 per year. Getting the lowest prices possible is the easiest way to maximise GP. Gochef can help source reliable suppliers with very low prices as well as helping maximise brand support for a venue.

Back of House systems:
The financial health of a bar or restaurant depends on achieving and maintaining key financial targets and it is essential that these are identified and closely monitored. If the financial management systems aren't up to scratch it can be too late before any problems raise their heads. Gochef can help set appropriate targets and implement the systems required to monitor whether they are being met and, if not, what needs to be done to do this.

Business growth:
We offer advice on when and how to expand, how to establish a stable base to grow from and putting in place the systems necessary to grow in as stress free a manner as possible. And also on financing projects and reducing risks associated with growth such as increased overheads or diluted standards.

Project Management:
No idea, which are the best tills? Which make of fridge to buy? Who to go to for the glamorous PR launch? Who can run your payroll for you? The bar and restaurant industries are a minefield of third party companies wanting you to use their products and services. We have a huge network of contacts and have experience of selecting the right partners to work with. You can be sure that if there are areas that we don't cover in house we can arrange everything for you.
