Notable increases in compensation and staffing levels of corporate food and beverage employees reflects the increasing importance that hotel companies are placing in this functional area.

It’s difficult to quantify the increased investment that hotel companies have made over the past several years in the area of food and beverage. However, this increased investment is seen as critical to driving overall asset value, not only because f&b revenues and profitability increase, but also because hoteliers are able to leverage f&b to position a property within its market and drive revenues in the rooms division.

• In recent years, the industry has witnessed a few notable trends, including:– Increasing emphasis on in-

house development of retail-style restaurant concepts

– A new focus on f&b in the select service segment (Hyatt Place, Aloft, Indigo, Courtyard)

– An explosion of partnerships with celebrity chefs; and

– The addition of f&b service in hotel public spaces.

• Consumers from nearly all market segments have become more demanding when it comes to food and beverage quality and the experience.

• Competition in the hotel and food and beverage industries is at an all-time high, with the emergence of more concepts in the past five years than in the past fifteen.

• Furthermore, hotel food & beverage has been recognized as an important contributor to a hotel's positioning within its market.

• As such, a guest's experience with food & beverage plays a critical role in his or her overall hotel experience, and has been credited as an important driver for rooms revenue as well as overall asset value.

The Irish Pub has proven to be a key success factor in many Hotel locations for the following reasons:

1. It’s a multi layered concept with depth, heritage, tradition and authenticity.

2. It has proven worldwide popularity and revenues.

3. The Irish pub offers longevity and therefore a better return on investment.

4. It attracts a wide audience both in terms of age, ethnicity and type of guest.

5. It offers a higher sales volume of high profit product.

6. Opens up all days parts for trading.7. Has strong links with both the

sporting and event calendar, making regular promotional events possible.
