Back to original languageAbout Antoine
Having worked in the hotel and restaurant industry for several years, I've had the opportunity to manage hotels (4* and 5*) in France. I've developed a sensitivity for creating concepts and business plans/budgets. Over the years, I've built a database of hundreds of establishments, ranging from campsites to luxury hotels and restaurants (traditional and franchise).
If you're looking to start a venture as a restaurateur, F&B business owner, guesthouse operator, campsite owner, or hotelier but don't know where to begin, contact me!
My services are diverse, and you can choose from the following:
- Business model creation (over 3/5/10 years)
- Concept creation
- Budget creation
- Creation of investor materials
- Benchmark creation
All these services are exclusively for the hospitality and restaurant industry.
