Travel Market Life Podcast: Hospitality Discussion 2024 (Part 2): Revenue Generation

In this episode, we look at where there is potential to drive more revenue in hospitality and accommodation businesses when the ADR has been maximised, other than occupancy - how can hotels increase spend per guest? Speaking to Scot Turner, Director at Auden Hospitality,we look at F&B, exploring where profit margins have seeped to an all-time low - and how businesses can improve opportunities.

Hotelier key considerations included:

  • Skills management among team leadership and management
  • Challenges in data utilisation for identifying lost opportunities in F&B
  • Outsourcing F&B or embracing food delivery services (like JustEat/Deliveroo)
  • Need for hotels to adapt offerings to changing consumer behaviours
  • How to leverage revenue from EV Charging, Parking and Security/Deposit Lockers
