40 years of Hospitality expertise, shared.
Run a tighter, more profitable independent venue without the cost of a full-time Operations Director.

Why independent restaurant operators outsource to Profit Plate
Running a great venue is about hospitality, but staying open is about margins. Most independent owners are stretched too thin to manage the commercial engine of their business. Do any of these look familiar?
- The Margin Guesswork: Food and drink costs are climbing, but you don't have the time to sit down and properly engineer your menu for maximum GP%.
- The Supplier Squeeze: You know you're likely overpaying on buy-ins, but you don't have the leverage or the time to negotiate tighter deals with suppliers.
- The Service Inconsistency: You want to deliver guest service excellence, but without bespoke Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), your team is guessing, and standards fluctuate when you aren't there.
- The Financial Fog: You're reacting to your bank balance rather than proactively managing a strict P&L budget and forecast.
The power of a corporate Head Office. Scaled for an independent budget.

Meet your partner
I’m André. Over the last 40 years, I’ve lived every single side of the high-street and independent hospitality industry. I’ve run busy restaurants, managed corporate-level finances, and systemised independent operations for long-term growth. Independent operators don't need a theoretical consultant writing a 50-page report they don't have time to read. You need real-world answers, optimized gross profits, and rigid operational structures from someone who has actually stood in your shoes.
