Case study: software to help hospitality industry adapt to post-COVID-19 world
Hospitality is changing for the long term. Now that lockdown has eased, new regulations are putting strain on small businesses. Adapting to this new way of operating is going to be critical to success.
Challenges for retail and hospitality businesses include:
- A shift in customer expectations –cleanliness, social distancing measures, increase in delivery and takeaway
- Capacity limitations leading to reduced turnover
- Demand for a contactless customer service experience
The Solution:
