What Our Clients Say
About The Cakap Group
Not sure what I would have done without the support of The Cakap Group. Their extensive level of experience combined with a hugely dynamic set of skills and an aggressive approach to get things done quickly and efficiently was exactly what we needed to pull off a successfully executed launch-party and opening of our restaurant. From SOP planning and training, hiring and recruiting, logistical coordination, and everything in between, these guys were simply on it and up for the task at every level. I can't recommend The Cakap Group enough. Great service, incredibly fair prices and super fun to work with. 5-star hands down. With Gratitude,
The Cakap Group provided me with invaluable support in putting together a professional and comprehensive business plan, BOQ and recruitment strategy prior to launching The Barn Pub & Restaurant in 2021. The Teams knowledge and expertise in the field really helped me lay the foundations for my company's official launch later that year in Bali. Their continued willingness to help out whenever I need is greatly appreciated and I would highly recommend their company to anyone else needing support running a hospitality business in Bali.
Murex Resorts is a well-established business in North Sulawesi started in 1988 but we have struggled with our F&B for a decade. Times have changed since opening our resorts and guests are expecting better quality food & drinks with more variety & presented well. Our only wish is that we met Peter sooner as investment prior to building a relationship with him was mis-managed. No more. Understanding our F&B objectives, The Cakap Group helped us develop a full business plan and its execution professionally and within time frame & budget. We began our rehab during covid and Peter was a very comforting and flexible to adapt to what was happening. Subsequent to our successful launch at our first resort, we engaged The Cakap Group for our island property too. Nothing in this business is flawless but having the right consultant helps cushion setbacks and accumulates successes while keeping the entire project on point. Thank you, Peter & your team
As General Manager of Karma Jimbaran Resort Bali, it is my pleasure to recommend the services of The Cakap Group. They were hired to provide sommelier training courses and in-depth wine knowledge to my Food & Beverage service team, providing them with the tools and confidence required befitting of a 5-star guests experience. From our initial enquiry to the graduation ceremony of our team, The Cakap Group provided a highly professional service to our resort whilst setting an enjoyable and informative environment for our team to develop their skills. I look forward to working with The Cakap Group again in the future as we continue to further enhance our staff members and would recommend to all striving for a high level or products and service. Should I be able to provide any further information in the future, I would be happy to do so. Kind regards,
The work that The Cakap Group have done has added significant value to our company, as well as profiting from that in the long run, we are already making savings through efficiencies that will repay the cost of the consultancy many times over. easy to work with and reliable in delivering on what has been promised. Should you require any further details please feel free to give drop me a line, I'll be happy to do so.
I highly recommend The Cakap Group consulting company for their exceptional work in assisting my Chinese restaurants in Seminyak and Berawa, as well as the opening of our Jakarta airport outlet. Their services were invaluable in several key areas. Firstly, The Cakap Group conducted a thorough analysis of our menus, calculating the cost of goods and implementing a cost reduction strategy that significantly improved our profitability without compromising quality. They also played a crucial role in creating and implementing a comprehensive kitchen Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) between our main and secondary outlets, streamlining our production system and enhancing efficiency. Additionally, their expertise was evident in adjusting the menu and developing an effective SOP for the successful opening of our airport outlet. Their commitment to health and safety was apparent through comprehensive training sessions, ensuring our staff followed proper kitchen organization protocols.
In the last 3 months working with us and implementing their systems & measures, our kitchen, Purchasing & our Goods Receiving sections are all running very much more efficiently. Furthermore, our kitchen team, through their care, attention & training are showing a renewed motivation. And they have, as promised, reduced our food cost far below our expectations. The whole process has been professional, smooth & with barely an interruption to our day-to-day operations with minimum time input from management here at Old Man's. On behalf of the staff & owners, our thanks once again for a great job, very well done, from start to end. Best Regards,
