A New Year gives businesses the chance to review the year gone by and make changes for the year to come. If you intend to improve your restaurants interior in 2018, we’ve got four New Year’s resolutions for your establishment.
By improving the areas listed below, you will enhance your customer experience while also expanding profitability.
Keeping your furniture in good condition
Because of the constant moving around by customers and the never-ending amount of use that it endures, contract furniture can have a shorter lifespan than residential furniture.
We pride ourselves on using the highest quality materials that lead to longevity as standard in every product we supply, but there are some suggestions to help maintain furniture for as long as possible.
See our guide on how to keep your furniture in the best condition.
Replacing furniture when necessary
It can be tempting to make-do with dated furniture and some owners try to get by with furniture that blatantly needs replacing. Whilst this saves the owner money in the short run, by having an establishment full of worn and damaged furniture, the furniture will soon reflect customer’s impression of the establishment as a whole. Subsequently, customers will soon look to competitors.
As an owner, you will replace the worn furniture with newer versions at some point so why not do it straight away before it begins to affect the customer experience?
How to make you décor Instagram-able
Not only is it important for your business to have its own social presence, you want your customers to be able to engage with you on it. For example, if you are a café, what better way to reach new customers than getting people posting pictures of your café on their social media pages?
How do you do it? Firstly ensure you have free WiFi for customers to use and secondly have an interior décor that is unique. Some aspects that can encourage photographs being taken are neon lights, unique food presentation, block quotes on walls and patterned floor tiles. Most of all, think colour.
Adopting a sustainable design
In 2018, an interior design trend for restaurants and bars will be natural textures and earthy tones. Wood paneling and browns, blues, mustards and greens give a natural finish to establishments.
Plants and flowers are a cost-effective way to breathe life into a space. Not only is being around plants relaxing for your customers, it also makes a connection about the sustainability of your business.
