Franchise India in association with Restaurant India (www.restaurantindia.in) is organising Restaurant India Investment & Development Summit 2021 along with Indian Restaurant Awards 2021 on the December 17 at Hotel Pullman, New Delhi.
“Its been a very tough time for us- the restaurant business in the last 2 years. The future looks bright for the food-service industry overall however there are no guarantees in this business. It is a wonderful business and a lucrative one too. But there are a thousand moving parts, and we need to be knowledgeable of all of them. Even the most successful operators will tell you this isn't a "get rich quick" industry. A hard reality is that many restaurants fail during their first year, frequently due to a lack of planning.
This is the comeback event, the Restaurant industry deserves. Lets meet on the 17th of December and celebrate the victory of the industry,” said a statement released by the event organisers.
