It’s All Greek to Me
It’s important to remember that you don’t have to be Greek to offer Greek food. At the heart of it all are our recipes that have been modified to appeal to American palates and our training program that will provide all the information you need to serve up a perfect meal. We have taken the headaches and guesswork out of getting your location open and we offer comprehensive support from day one to help you get up and running quickly including:
Restaurant Location and Design
Today is one of the best times to be looking for restaurant locations. There are many second generation spaces – locations that were previously restaurants and have closed. Not all of these locations are great, but our team works with you to identify the right locations allowing you to open for a fraction of the cost of building a new location. Someone else has already paid for your hood, grease trap, impact fees and more. Sometimes there will even be equipment left in the space. That combined with falling lease rates makes this a great time to open a restaurant.
Once your location is selected our team works with you to create the ideal floor plan for that ensures the optimal usage. Our back of house layout focuses on maximizing the efficiency of the kitchen and storage areas while our front of the house layout centers around the customer traffic flow and seating. These layouts are them combined with the décor items for Little Greek.
Training and Operations Manual
Whether you are a restaurant veteran or operating a restaurant for the first time, you will appreciate the support that Little Greek provides. Our two week training program and the Little Greek Operations Manual guide you every step of the way in daily procedures for opening and operating your restaurant. Once construction has started on your location, we will schedule you for your training at our corporate training store in Palm Harbor, Florida.
Among the key topics will be operations procedures that take you from open to close on a daily basis, including food preparation, cooking and serving, inventory control, back of the house procedures, front of the house procedures, marketing and point-of-sale usage. Employee management for hiring training and evaluating employees is also covered extensively. In addition you will learn the two keys to running a successful restaurant, food costs and labor, and how to control them.
Marketing Programs
Getting the word out about Little Greek will be one of your primary roles as the franchisee and we provide you the tools you need to get the best results while maximizing your marketing dollars. Our marketing plan is a grassroots approach to marketing to businesses and residences within three miles of your location. We provide you with the plan and the guidance to help you implement it so that you can get up and running quickly with your Grand Opening marketing and you can grow you business with our on-going marketing program.
Quality Control and Ongoing Support
Great food in a fast friendly environment is the hallmark by which Little Greek has come to be known. Delivering on these expectations every time is the result of our franchisees commitment to the brand and our commitment to support you in consistently following the Little Greek standards. Our franchise business representatives will visit your location to ensure that these standards are being met and also to offer suggestions on how to improve your operations and any other areas where you need assistance. We will sit down with you to evaluate your sales and expenses and to analyze areas where we can help you improve. We are in business with you to help you every step of the way.
