Foodservice equipment and supply dealers and manufacturers
are feverishly working together to come up with ways to help restaurants
strengthen revenue opportunities, while their dining areas are closed. There is a loyal partnership between restaurant
owners and equipment and supply dealers and manufacturers. The focus is on
helping restaurants stay strong during this difficult time.
We’re seeing fast turn-around of product shipments to
restaurants working on starting up or enhancing their foodservice pick-up and
delivery business. We are also seeing the admiration and appreciation for
restaurants, as loyal customers order food for pick-up and delivery, until they
can walk into the dining room again and enjoy their favorite restaurant
experiences.
Communication with Your Current and Potential Customers
It’s a good idea to have a “special” area on your website
home page communicating your response to COVID-19. This could include special
hours, initiatives, and pick-up and delivery service information. Let your customers know what you are offering
and how much you appreciate their support. Identify the story you want to tell
about the experience your customers will receive when they order from you.
Present your story with video testimonials. Engage through
Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube, and more.
Connect with emails, blogs, online ads, local food bloggers
and influencers. Make content fun, personal to your customers, and about your
employees and events. Partner with food apps and make sure your restaurant is
listed. Keep your Yelp and google listing updated.
Have a good online management program in place. Make sure
you respond to customer reviews in a timely manner and post regularly to your
social media channels. Pictures and videos are the most viewed posts.
Tips For Starting Up Food Delivery and Take-Out
Take a look at your menu and identify the high profit menu
items that travel well. You don’t have to include your entire menu for food
delivery. One idea is to put together unique comfort food meals for families
during this time. Make it fun and let them know who you are and why you enjoy
serving them.
Invest in good packaging and transport supplies to make sure
the food arrives in good form and at the right temperature.
Always include tamper-proof stickers when utilizing a third
party delivery service. This just lets your customers know you care about the
food you are delivering.
Make sure the food presentation looks good. Include brand
identification or creative ambiance generators. Could be a signature glass or
cup, be creative. Include a thank you note.

What makes a good knife? The ability to hold an edge? What
about balance? While these are all very important features of a good knife,
many chefs prefer the way it feels in their hand.
But what if you could mold a knife’s handle to feel like an extension of your own hand? That’s what you get with Dexter’s UR-Cut! Not only is the handle fully moldable and personalized to you, but the blade is manufactured from proprietary stain free, high-carbon steel and individually ground and honed. You know that the balance will be right too, as Dexter has been making blades since 1818. It is also made in the U.S.A.
To mold the handle, you simply remove your new Dexter UR-Cut from the package. Use an oven mitt to dip the handle in boiling water for two minutes. Remove it and quickly dip it in cold water for one second, then grip and squeeze the handle as you would when using it. Dip the handle back into cold water for ten seconds to set the shape and then let it cool. When you’re done, the knife grip will be form fit and ergonomically molded to your very own hand for a sure grasp and unmatched comfort.

As bar operators know, the costs of running a bar can stack
up. However, there are areas where you can save money that many don’t think
about. One of these is the type of pour spouts you use.
Spill-Stop’s 285-50 Chrome Tapered Pourer is the choice of many bar operators, and its consistency is the key to reducing waste and over-pouring. That can save a large amount of money over time.
Look at it this way: the average cost of a drink with 1
ounce of liquor is $7.50. If your bartender over-pours by 20%, you are losing
one drink for every five that are poured. There are 33.8 ounces in every 1
liter bottle (Approximately 33 drinks per bottle). So, if your bartender
consistently over-pours by 20%, you are losing six drinks for every 1 liter
bottle sold. Those six drinks equal $45.00 in lost sales!
So you can stop worrying about losing money by over-pouring and by using Spill-Stop’s 285-50… start making more money!
Traulsen’s 48” length Quick Chiller not only provides desired quick-chilling convenience, but maximizes productivity and food safety in a compact footprint!
The Quick Chiller’s airflow is specially calibrated to chill batches through the “danger zone” of temperatures in the time the FDA requires. Traditional refrigeration units rise in temperature when hot food is added, leading to too-slow chilling and spoilage. Traulsen’s Quick Chiller will quickly chill even delicate foods, and is a first step in demonstrating your due diligence in food safety.
Features:
Microprocessor Control: Digital controls are easy to monitor with no complicated configurations
Rapid Chilling Airflow System: System rapidly circulates 31-34°F air to chill foods past spoilage-prone temperatures
Options: Choose between drawer and door models; casters and countertop options available
