Keeping your Restaurant open during Ramadan can be challenging for you. As most people will be fasting during that time you will have difficulty in keeping your restaurant open during the day. Pre-Dawn and Evenings can be beneficial for you as these are the times people will be eating.
You need to use EasyEat’s inventory management feature, and table reservation feature, create coupons, and enable the QR ordering system to prepare for Ramadan.
Read more to find out how exactly these features will help you serve your customers better and also make fasting easy for you.
Use the Inventory Management feature to plan your Ramadan Menu
One of the first things you need to do is plan your Ramadan menu. During this time, people crave traditional dishes like nasi lemak, rendang, ayam percik, and bubur lambuk. But creating a great menu is only half the battle. You also need to ensure you have enough ingredients to meet the demand.
EasyEat’s inventory management feature is here to help you with Ramadan food prep. It lets you keep track of your stock in real time. You’ll know exactly what you have, what’s running low, and what needs to be reordered. This way, you won’t face the frustration of running out of key ingredients during peak hours. For example, if you notice your supply of chicken is getting low, you can quickly place an order with your supplier. This feature saves you time and ensures you’re always ready to serve your customers.
Did you know that during Ramadan, food businesses in Malaysia often see a 20-30% increase in sales? (Source: Malaysian Food and Beverage Association). With EasyEat, you can handle this surge without any stress.
Avoid Chaos with EasyEat’s Reservation Feature
During Ramadan, many people prefer to dine out for iftar (the meal to break the fast). This means your place can get crowded very quickly. To avoid last-minute chaos, you can use EasyEat’s reservation feature.
This feature allows your customers to book tables in advance. They can choose their preferred time and the number of people in their group. When they arrive, their table will be ready, and you’ll be prepared to serve them without delay. This not only improves the customer experience but also helps you manage your seating efficiently.
In Malaysia, iftar time is around 7:20 PM to 7:40 PM during Ramadan (Source: Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia). By using the reservation feature, you can ensure a steady flow of customers and avoid overcrowding during this peak period.
Attract More Customers with Ramadan Promotions
Ramadan is a great time to attract new customers and reward your loyal ones. With EasyEat, you can create special promotions and share them directly with your customers. For example, you could offer a discount on iftar meals or a free dessert for groups of four or more.
These promotions can be sent via email or through the EasyEat app. They’re a simple yet effective way to draw people in during this busy month. Plus, you can track how well your promotions are doing and adjust them as needed.
In Malaysia, 78% of diners say they’re more likely to visit a restaurant if it offers a Ramadan promotion (Source: Malaysian Dining Trends Report). With EasyEat, you can easily tap into this trend and boost your sales.
Speed Up Service with QR Ordering
During Ramadan, people want to break their fast quickly and enjoy their meals without delay. Long queues and slow service can frustrate your customers. That’s where EasyEat’s QR ordering system comes in.
With this system, your customers can scan a QR code at their table, view the menu, and place their orders directly from their phones. This eliminates the need for them to wait for a server or stand in line. Orders go straight to your kitchen, speeding up the process and ensuring your customers get their food faster.
This feature is especially useful during iftar when everyone is hungry and eager to eat. It also reduces the workload on your staff, allowing them to focus on providing excellent service.
Take Sharia-compliant loans for additional funds
Ramadan is a busy time, and you might need extra funds to stock up on ingredients, hire temporary staff, or even renovate your space. EasyEat offers a Sharia-compliant, interest-free loan to help you during this period.
This loan is designed to meet your needs without compromising your values. You can use it to invest in your business and ensure you’re fully prepared for the Ramadan rush. Whether you need to buy new equipment or expand your menu, EasyEat has got you covered.
