Avero restaurant software helps operators make better business decisions and drive profits. Avero makes sure to look at all the diverse types of food and beverage operations and their varying points of pain or frustration, and we are excited to announce the launch of Avero Onboard, a revenue management solution designed specifically for the cruise line industry.
Onboard revenue, the money that guests spend once aboard the ship, is a critical driver of profit in the cruise industry. Onboard spending is expected to approach $9 billion in 2014, which is almost 25% of total cruise spending, and a significant portion of this spending comes from F&B. Upscale bars and lounges, nightclubs, fine dining restaurants, even celebrity chef concepts are now common on cruise ships, so it’s more important than ever for cruise ship operators to drive performance in their F&B operations.
Avero Onboard gives cruise F&B operators insight into entire voyages with a single click. It incorporates meaningful KPIs for the cruise industry, including passenger per day metrics and available lower berth metrics, and reveals a complete picture of ship-side sales performance, how revenue is driven by season, trade, number of passengers, duration, and other key voyage dimensions.
- Drive sales: Improve server performance to increase sales per passenger per day.
- Optimizepurchasing: Forecast the right items and quantities for each voyage.
- Benchmark performance: Compare voyages by characteristics like season, trade, ports, etc.
- Deploy effective promotions: Choose onboard promotions that contribute to the
voyage budget. - Evaluate success: Measure the performance of F&B leaders and staff across similar voyages.
