Just four weeks until The Caterer’s virtual Recovery Summit

The Caterer’s online Recovery Summit will be held on Tuesday 30 March. Sign up here.

In less than a month innovative operators and experts will explore how hospitality businesses can shape their businesses for maximum profit in 2021.

The Recovery Summit will address the lessons we can take with us into 2021 and beyond following a tumultuous year in hospitality. It will explore how to employ all revenue streams at your disposal and unravel the technology that will help take operators on the journey to recovery.

Register for free to listen to advice and case studies from new speakers including: chef-director of the Black Swan Tommy Banks; Dishoom managing director Brian Trollip; chief operating officer of the Apartment Group Debrah Dhugga; co-founder of Wahaca Mark Selby; and commercial director of Levy UK Rak Kalidas.

The live event will kick off with data experts CGA presenting its findings on what business leaders hope for and expect in the coming months, including where they see growth and how they are positioning their businesses to take advantage. Addleshaw Goddard will also run through the financial levers that are available to businesses that are looking to raise funds without borrowing.

These presentations will be complemented by two interactive panel discussions covering ‘New revenue generators to take into a new world of hospitality' and ‘Technology to save the day'.

Speaking ahead of his panel discussion about new revenue generators at the event, Dishoom's Trollip said restaurants need to think creatively when looking to launch products such as cook-at-home kits.

“The past year hasn't been easy for everyone, but a huge amount of creativity has come out of that desperation," said Trollip. "I'm really proud that we've been able to invest in the community and look after our team. We're still standing and now there's a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel for the industry."

The Caterer's editor James Stagg added: "It has been a horrendous 12 months for the industry, but each blow has proven how resilient and innovative our pubs, restaurants, hotels and foodservice companies are. Join us on 30 March, armed with questions for our expert panellists, to discover how they plan to remould their business to take advantage of the opportunities available as we emerge from the pandemic together.”
