Why Restaurants Fail? Optimizing All Types of Commercial Kitchens
General Hotel Supports Local Restaurants, Hotels and Commercial Kitchens Via a Free Two-Day Community Event and Conference
MIAMI, Oct. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- General Hotel, a company based in Miami Lakes, South Florida, has come up with an excellent idea to support the local community of restaurants and hotels. Most restaurateurs, chefs, event planners, general managers and people in the hospitality industry are busy people. As a small business owner or operator of a restaurant, one might seldom find time to keep pace with the latest and hottest trends in the industry. This free community conference addresses many of these issues, thus benefiting the greater hospitality community in South Florida.
For the first time, for no fees and free entry, General Hotel is offering two days of free seminars for the hottest and most challenging topics facing the hospitality industry leaders. Those operating restaurants, hotels and commercial kitchens are invited to attend this two-day event. Anyone can register for these free seminars on http://GeneralShow2018.com for the event being held on Sunday, Oct. 28, 2018, and Monday, Oct. 29, 2018, in General Hotel's 10,000-square-foot office and warehouse in Miami Lakes. "This is our 15th annual year doing this amazing hospitality event to support the hotels and restaurants and we are very proud to add the education seminar element for our hospitality community," said Donald Alloian, Vice president.
The free sessions include topics like: Optimizing Restaurant Sales, Improving Google Reviews, Refining Facebook and Social Media Advertising, Improving Profitability, Making More Money Off Mix Drinks and Wines, Modern Ways to Attract Customers, and Hire and Retain the Best Employees, among other topics.
Background on the Florida Hospitality and Tourism Industry
Florida is known for its booming hospitality and tourism industry. According to FloridaTrend.com, "Visitors generated $88 billion, or roughly 10 percent, of Florida's total gross domestic product (GDP)." It is also estimated that "a record 116.5 million visitors traveled to Florida in 2017, an increase of 3.6 percent" over 2016 (source: Visit Florida).
All these tourism statistics look very promising as a whole, but on the microlevel all hospitality businesses are working hard to keep up with trends in their industry and changes in online social media and advertising all while optimizing their business operations. General Hotel of Miami Lakes wanted to address these issues by hosting a multi-day training event in the form of a conference free to attendees. It is believed that training our hospitality leaders and managers will overall benefit the restaurant and hotel hospitality community through higher levels of services and higher profitability across the board, thus increasing potential tourism for the following years.
