Blue Apple would like to wish everyone a Happy Easter and update you on some of the exciting, springtime plans we have for the year ahead.

In May, we will launch our new marketing and promotions package, comprising a 'monthly product promotions' and 'special days' selector, allowing our manager to choose the items most likely to excite your customers and boost unit sales. Managed independently by our marketing team, this 'selector package' will offer a range of solutions that will help each unit adopt a more professional approach to marketing. Blue Apple has invested in this specially devised package to ensure that the most appropriate marketing tools are available to each unit, whilst allowing our team to focus on serving you and our customers.

We have had a long hard look at our marketing and merchandising material within the units, so you will be experiencing a rejuvenated, improved, 'High-Street-feel' to your operation with fresh, healthy graphics and superior, clearer labelling, information and signage.

We are investing heavily in team training to promote healthy eating, customer service and menu innovation to ensure our customers receive a modern approach to their dining experience.

To help us track our managers' financial progress, we are introducing our new computerised management system. This will allow us to monitor trends more effectively so that we can tailor our food offer to your particular site on an ongoing-basis.

As part of their focus for the rest of the year, our managers will be producing a business plan for their individual restaurants. This will help them to recognise the importance of applying sound business management and will act as a benchmark against which we can monitor their progress.

We have recently launched an Organic Deli bar at our site at Bourne Leisure, which has proved extremely popular and profitable. This success has resulted in increased support from our organic farmers and suppliers, which will enable us to use their products across many of our sites.
Our Marketing team will be updating you regularly on our progress throughout the year, so look out for "A Byte From Blue Apple".

Happy Easter

Brian and Ruston
