Technology for Garden Center Cafe
1. 34 Commercial presentation
March 2014 | Garden Centre & Farm Shop CATERING
Many businesses now attract more customers
because of their restaurants and cafés,
providing an ideal setting to eat and drink
whilst shopping for horticultural needs and
many other items. The one major benefit
that they have over many high street
restaurants and cafes is spacious car
parking, which is normally free..
Over the years these eateries have
become a place to taste homemade
meals and enjoy fresh produce, but their
existence may be almost as secret as the
location of Atlantis. These centres need to
be known not only as just a stop off point for
choosing plants and all garden needs but also
to be known as a place where a fantastic meal or
snack is served.
This is where Foodit comes in:
NEVER GET LOST ON GOOGLE
New customers are looking online for places to
try, if you don’t take proactive measures, you’ll
get left behind.
This can be as easy as keeping your
information up-to-date on Google Maps, but it
should also involve more intensive efforts like
Search Engine Optimization to ensure you are
high up on Google searches.
That’s something FOODit has helped eateries
do and we can help make sure you never lose
out on a new customer because they cannot
easily find you online.
TURN DATA INTO £££’S
You should be constantly trying to collect e-mail
addresses and contact information in order to
keep in touch and keep those customers coming
back again and again.
Having your own online ordering system
allows you to collect e-mail addresses in the
natural course of customers placing their orders.
Marketplaces that don’t let you own your customer
data allow you to reach new customers, but
make it incredibly hard to keep those customers
engaged and get them back through the door.
FOODit’s system helps you work around those
obstacles as it allows you to collect and store
your customers data yourself—then bringing in
more sales with our easy-to-use promotions and
rewards programs.
DON’T MISS OUT ON ONLINE ORDERING
It’s 2014—every serious eatery should have it’s
own website, and with that, every eatery should
allow customers to place orders online.
Customers prefer placing orders online and
they are voting with their feet. In addition to
collecting customer data, offering online ordering
gives you a unique edge over the competition.
HOW COULD THIS BENEFIT A GARDEN
CENTRE EATERY?
Customers nowadays have less time to waste, so
for them to be able to select an arrival time and
have their meal ready, whether for a sit down meal
or takeaway, would benefit them greatly. This also
helps organise your stock better as you will have
advance notice of what your customer would like
to eat, and if you need to order more supplies.
As you become more popular you may find a
future in delivery could be on the books.
Whether it be bringing prepared lunches to
nearby businesses or maybe even to customers
homes themselves!
