A major concern for restaurants in South Africa is to contribute to sustainability. As we are part of the food system we need to use less energy and water. We also have to have to take responsibility of how our food is prepared and where it is coming from. Disposal of waste is very important because we will be operating close to the sea and Cape Town is an environmentally friendly city.
iii. Strategic Opportunities
1. As said, Cape Town experiences a high number of tourists visiting the city a great percentage of them never leave without visiting the V&A Waterfront. As the market attractiveness is high we can use this to increase the variety and assortment in our menu because there are more different people with more different tastes.
2. We can open a high quality bar within the restaurant to increase sales.
3. High quality restaurants in Cape Town are increasing and therefore more opportunities are arising, another Café Berito can be opened in Camps Bay and at Canal
