**1. Expanding Catering & Events Services: Unlocking Revenue Potential**
The **Catering & Events** segment of our bistro holds immense untapped potential. By strategically expanding this offering, you can cater to a broader audience and create memorable experiences for special occasions. Here's how a new owner can capitalize on this opportunity:

- **Upscale Menus**: Develop curated menus that cater to corporate events, weddings, and celebrations. Emphasize locally sourced ingredients, dietary options, and customizable packages.
- **Event Partnerships**: Forge collaborations with event planners, venues, and organizations. Position our bistro as the preferred choice for catering services.

- **Authentic Pizzeria Counter**: Create a cozy corner where patrons can savor wood-fired, artisanal pizzas. Highlight diverse toppings, gluten-free options, and customizable crusts.
- **Barista-Driven Coffee Experience**: Elevate a coffee counter by sourcing high-quality beans and training skilled baristas. A warm ambiance and specialty brews will entice coffee enthusiasts.
