My background of late is the build up and run five separate successful food led pubs (Gastro style) within the New Forest Hants and surrounding area (now of my sixth), all of which are destination based pubs "off the beaten track" with a 60/40 Food led business circa £1M turnover each for the last 7 years.This involved building an excellent reputation for Great food, Excellent service and interesting events with a lovely ambience. The secret is ... no secret.... "Delight the Customer" they pay the wagesAlthough Turnover is "Vanity", profit is "Sanity" so a clear focus on GP, Staff wage and overheads make all the difference to any BusinessI hold various certificates including Personal License, Cellar Management, Food and Hygiene and First Aid within this business and other certificates outside of the industry including Man Management and Business acumen.
