Opening a restaurant is considered to be a
risky business. The problem is further compounded
by the lack of experience and financial discipline
in the area of cash-flow management, which most
start-up restaurateurs bring to the table. Pierre Levicky refuses to accept the average. He brings
leadership, expertise and an intrinsic value to
your project.
Pierre Levicky believes that by implementing a
good “operating system” through precise and
comprehensive operation manuals enables you to
deliver consistency and predictability, which are
among the most important factors in any business.
Furthermore, by effectively controlling certain
variables he essentially reduces the associated
risk.
DO YOU:
Want to open a restaurant or a group of
restaurants?
Want to be in this business and realise how costly
one mistake can be?
Already have a restaurant and you want to improve
profits?
Need a fresh, objective approach to a persistent
problem?
Have embarked on opening an establishment and you
realize you’re in way over your head?
Don’t have the time or the patience to work
through problems?
Have a place that’s suffering and you don’t want
it to fail?
An experienced team with a fresh approach can
help!
As a consultant Pierre Levicky likes to take a
simple customised approach with each project and
is able to offer a distinct working relationship
to his clients.
Pierre Levicky and his team enjoy a diverse
resource base and over the years have formed solid
relationships with key restaurant owners, chefs,
fast food operators/ manufacturers, interior
designers, franchise experts, franchisees, lawyers
and more.
By assembling a team of talented individuals and
orchestrating their activities Pierre Levicky is
able to provide a complete service for both
start-up companies, as well as existing ones. |
