Crack the code to Easter profits!

Hello there,

The Easter bells are about to ring, and this brings a joyous time for families and a prime opportunity for restaurants to increase profits. This year, the Easter holiday starts from this Friday, 29th of March, to Monday, 1st of April, so there’s a long weekend to play with. In this edition of the Vendease Weekly Digest, we’ll share a few ways you can maximise your Easter!

With Easter, there are a few things you should expect as a food business. One of them is that Easter is a time for families to come together, and the second is that brunch after church on Easter Sunday is also a popular tradition in many African homes. In line with this information, you can use the following strategies to prepare for a delightful Easter weekend.

Create an Easter menu

Create a special menu featuring festive dishes to help families celebrate Easter. Make sure to add brunch options, and family-friendly meals. Offer a variety of price points to cater to different budgets.

Optimise for delivery and pickups

With busy schedules during the weekend, many families may opt for more convenient options like picking up catering orders or getting them delivered. To execute this seamlessly, you can partner with reliable delivery platforms and ensure efficient service.

Decorate for the occasion

Create a festive ambiance with Easter-themed decorations and vibrant colours. If your business has the space for extra activities like bouncy castles and games, it’s also a good idea to throw them into the mix. This will enhance the dining experience and attract families with children.

Partner with other businesses

Apart from organising efficient delivery, there are other opportunities for collaboration between businesses for a successful Easter weekend. For instance, you can partner with bakeries or flower shops to offer Easter bundles or gift baskets, promoting each other's offerings.

Vendease ensures you have a steady supply of high-quality ingredients at competitive prices? - crucial for fulfilling your Easter menu promises. Start getting ready for Easter now with Vendease!

Ask Koko??

Hi Koko,

I’m a wholesaler in Lagos that sells majorly imported foodstuffs and groceries and I’ve been buying from Vendease for a few months now. My experience has been good so far but now I have a problem that I hope you can help me fix. Some of my goods have to remain frozen or cold till they’re sold like frozen shrimps, french fries, frozen small chops and so on. But lately I’ve been having light issues at my main store, which has made me lose some of these frozen items. Is there any way I can buy and stockpile with Vendease until I need them? It seems you have reliable electricity I can count on.

Hi Obinna,

We’re sorry to hear you’re having these issues with storing your frozen goods. Lucky for you, this is a service that Vendease provides. For a fee, you can now use our cold storage facilities and pick up your items whenever you need them. Please call 09088991088 or send a Whatsapp message to +2349042222020 to get started now!
