Running a restaurant franchise business can be hard work no matter what type of product or service you sell. You’re putting your time, money and every ounce of energy you have behind not one site, but multiple, and it can sometimes feel very overwhelming, especially in the beginning. That’s why choosing the right Multi-Site Point of Sale (POS) system is crucial for the growth and success of your franchise business.

Caffe Primo recently expanded in the west of Adelaide opening it’s 18th cafe in South Australia with its new venue at West Lakes.

In 1998 the first Caffe Primo store opened its doors to customers in Westfield Tea Tree Plaza as a sole trading family operated business. This stylish and trendy café seating 350 people struggled to meet daily sale targets. With their 25 years of business background, Dino and Lisa Vettese came up with the idea of a meal deal that would set a new trend for generations to come.

Paul & Makeeley Abraham, who most would know from previous ventures Corner Store, Long Lost Friend and Local Crowd, have opened East Borough in the premises previously housing Bar 9 on Glen Osmond Rd in Parkside.

Whilst Paul grew up with restaurants in the family, they felt with a hand in so many businesses that they were spreading themselves a little thin, so sold up, left the industry, and spent a year and a half focussing on their food delivery business for people living with dysphagia, The Caring Kitchen, while they recuperated and kept an eye out for a new spot to start afresh.
