Taste Hub: Multi-Location Food Court Success

About Taste Hub

Taste Hub operates two food courts—one in high-street location, one in premium mall—with combined 16 vendor brands across both locations offering diverse global cuisines, serving 1,400 daily customers. Rapid growth created scaling challenges and performance visibility gaps.

The Challenges They Faced Before RanceLab

There was no performance benchmarking across vendors, making it unclear which vendors drove traffic versus occupied space. Duplicate operational costs across two locations meant no economies of scale. Peak hour kitchen bottlenecks were causing 25+ minute wait times and customer walkouts. Customer experience was inconsistent between locations with no unified brand identity.

The Solution Provided by RanceLab

RanceLab implemented a multi-location dashboard with vendor performance analytics and benchmarking. Centralized vendor management with standardized operations across both food courts was deployed. A queue management system with real-time wait time visibility and kitchen load balancing eliminated bottlenecks. A unified loyalty program working across both locations with cross-location recognition was introduced.

The Outcomes They Achieved

Three underperforming vendors with sub-50% conversion rates were identified and replaced with high-demand cuisines. Operational costs were reduced by ₹4.8L annually through shared platform and bulk procurement. Peak hour throughput increased 38% as kitchen coordination eliminated bottlenecks.

Customer walkouts during rush were reduced from 12% to 3%. Cross-location loyalty program drove 18% increase in visits to the second location. Overall food court profitability improved by ₹6.2L quarterly.
