According to research from Oracle, 74 percent of workers in the UAE trust robots more than their managers. They would choose AI over their present managers any day. The restaurant industry of the UAE is steadily moving towards using the latest technology to manage their brands. Especially for owners of restaurant chains, or people wanting to step into franchise agreements, the only way to grow is to incorporate the best of technology out there. <\/span>In this article we will provide some proven strategies that will help increase restaurant revenues and improve customer engagement for the enterprise restaurant chains in the UAE.<\/span><\/p>\n

Technology Taking Over The Restaurant Industry: How To Use Its Various Aspects For Expansion<\/b><\/h2>\n

Let\u2019s dig in the various aspects of technology that you can take advantage of for your business expansion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Enterprise Management<\/b><\/h3>\n

Any established restaurateur understands the struggle of managing an enterprise. It is a challenging situation when even one of your outlets starts behaving adversely. As a restaurateur, the first thing that would come to your mind is how to run a particular campaign or analyse outlets of a specific location, without having to go there or choose it from a 100 outlets manually.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say your enterprise restaurant in the UAE has four brands, and 15 outlets each, scattered among ten different locations. Imagine the kind of time and energy you would need to spend every time you wanted to analyse the trends of one of your sites. This is why, enterprise wide reporting is one of the first things you\u2019d require from your restaurant technology partner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An ideal POS follows a BFCD model, which is Brand, Format, Cluster and Deployment.<\/strong> You can select a particular outlet based on any of these filters and then run multiple campaigns, edit their menu or even analyse their sales trends in a single click.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Customer Analysis\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

For an enterprise to sustain itself, keeping up with the customer demand while ensuring that their primary menu is not compromised becomes critical. Since there is massive competition, customers will always have a better restaurant to go to. Use your customer data to analyse what worked five years ago vs what works in the present, and make changes to your menu accordingly. In some cases, you can also make changes in your menu only for a particular location, since the same dish might work differently at two different locations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Consistency And Quality (Supply Chain)\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

One important thing to understand about brand growth is consistency. Managing multiple outlets through one cloud-based POS<\/a> makes it easier for the data to flow in. You can get updates in real-time about the sales at each of your outlets, the growth rate and the losses incurred. This helps you to monitor your supply chain operations easily.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An ideal POS helps you take care of your vendors, place timely purchase orders, estimate the future requirements of your stock correctly and hence help your restaurant grow.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

4. Managing Your Staff\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

The average staff turnover in Dubai\u2019s hospitality industry is 30%. Staff is continuously monitored not just by their line managers, but also by the owners of the restaurant. Another major problem in the restaurant industry is that young people, particularly \u2018millennials\u2019, do not see a job opportunity at a restaurant as their long-term plan. <\/span><\/p>\n

To manage your staff across multiple outlets,\u00a0 bring in technology aids. An integrated cloud-based POS helps you to track down each of your staff’s details like the time they stepped in, their scheduled shifts, the tables they have covered, the revenue and discounts they gave, and so on. Based on your staff\u2019s performance, you can plan on providing incentives and promotions. That, in turn, reduces staff attrition rate!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Increasing Your Loyal Customers\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

Loyal customers tend to pay way more than your newly acquired customers. Furthermore, it\u2019s easier to upsell orders to your regulars by suggesting them newer dishes based on their preferences. Although multiple factors contribute to gaining your customer loyalty. One major factor that leads to a customer choosing your restaurant time and again is the value you generate for them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The best cloud-based POS software provides you with an integrated loyalty management program. Under this feature, you can analyse your regulars, give them loyalty points, and keep track of the kind of marketing campaign run for each of your customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Your POS ideally should send out SMSs to your regular customers from time to time, to bring back their attention to your restaurant. Giving out discounts on their special days and sending out \u2018we miss you\u2019 messages should ideally make them want to come back more often, and try more of your outlets. Also, keeping loyal customers engaged helps your brand grow by word of mouth marketing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"how<\/p>\n

6. Online Ordering\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

Penetration of food and delivery apps has been high among businesses across the Middle East. Cloud kitchens and online deliveries have become two of the most favourable trends in the UAE restaurant industry<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result of the growing penetration of food delivery apps and online ordering in the UAE, several operators have started to collaborate with restaurants. These operators have seen double-digit growth in their delivery business, year on year. Considering the extension, your restaurant must be able to bring in more online orders to increase its overall revenues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Again, your restaurant POS becomes your saviour here. Everything from order taking, to order preparation, to appointing a delivery executive in time, and then finally delivering it safely can be done through such a technology platform. The most crucial advantage that a POS provides you with is the time you save in each order.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, you tend to save 2-3 minutes on each of your orders, which when multiplied with the number of tables you cater, would sum up to an average of 1-2 hours in a day. That\u2019s 1-2 hours of extra operations for your restaurant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Marketing Strategies\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

To market your restaurant to a wider audience, you must also start using your restaurant technology to run marketing campaigns. For instance, since people of the UAE are moving towards healthy food, a campaign focusing on customer health would work like a charm! E<\/span>nsure that your restaurant runs a regular marketing campaign, utilizes customer trends to run multiple campaigns and takes into consideration the ongoing trends.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
