APPENDIX
Case Study
Vincenzo and Louisa opened a tiny Italian restaurant in London in 1999 and the restaurant has been very popular since it opened. The menu consists of traditional Italian recipes and Italian wines. The restaurant has a reputation for quality food and excellent service. The restaurant is a family affair and their son, Marco, has also been working in the business for the last few years.
Marco is slowly taking over restaurant operations and has plans for expansion. He would like to expand the restaurant into the vacant shop next door. He also wants to open a small deli sandwich shop next door which would sell sandwiches, homemade breads, and offer a delivery service. To do this would require the recruitment of extra staff with relevant experience, or setting up a training programme for new staff. He would like to organise a Human Resources function to formalise processes in the restaurant.
Marco is keen to start marketing online and via social media but he is not sure what would be best suited to the family’s small business. Within the local area, the restaurant has a very good reputation; Marco wants to maintain this reputation and he is concerned that any rapid growth may jeopardise this.
