RESTAURANT ANALYTICS

   • Visit Patterns different types of customers visit your café at different times of the day; hence, menu differentiation is hence necessary for different day parts to boost your business

   • Understand what your customers like and personalize offers for them

   • Create loyalty strategies

   • Removing slow moving items from your menu

2. Pricing Strategy - Identify items which are consumed by price sensitive customers and upmarket customers.

3. Basket Analysis - Which items bought together contribute to maximum sales? Create combinations of such items and offer discounts to drive up sales and productivity.
