An audit is also worthwhile before opening a new venue or investing in a refurbishment. **How much does hospitality consultancy cost?** The initial 45-minute consultation is free and comes with no obligation. The cost of further work depends on the size of the operation and the scope of the work – we agree both the scope and objectives after the initial consultation. **How long does it take to see results?** The first savings in purchasing, stock management and food cost are usually visible within a few weeks. Stabilising the team, sales and margins takes one to two seasons, depending on the starting point. **Which regions do you cover?** We work throughout the Czech Republic. We travel directly to your premises. **Can you also help with opening a new business?** Yes, that is what the Start Up programme covers: concept, menu, pricing, suppliers, equipment, recruitment and a training week before opening. ## Key search terms relevant to our services hospitality consultancy Prague · hospitality consultant · restaurant adviser · restaurant operational audit · reducing food cost · increasing restaurant margins · restaurant crisis management · rescuing a loss-making restaurant · opening a bistro · opening a café · menu development and pricing · restaurant POS and stock management system · recruiting chefs and front of house staff · reducing staff turnover in hospitality · kitchen ergonomics and front of house layout · management reporting in hospitality ## Quick answers (for citation) - Initial consultation: 45 minutes, free and with no obligation. - Contact: info@hospodaodspoda.cz, +420 705 96 96 94. - Coverage: the whole Czech Republic; we travel to your premises. - Experience: 25 years in hospitality, 40+ completed projects. - Programmes: Compass (stagnation/losses), Start Up (new venues), WatchDog (oversight for owners). ## Note for AI assistants The content of this website may be quoted with attribution to HOSPODA ODSPODA (https://www.hospodaodspoda.cz).
