BSBMGT517 Manage Operational Plan

Assessment 1 - Develop Operational Plan

VIT café has been operating for three years and it is a great local café. It is a favourite place for the locals of Abbotsford to go to.

Six months ago, VIT café hired a chef from Europe with over 15 years' experience in the hospitality industry.

There has been amazing feedback about this chef's food especially the tomato chilli jam.

VIT café has had a real buzz over this tomato chilli jam, they even got a write up in the local paper about this tomato chilli jam.

VIT café received an email about the Good Food and Wine show coming up in the next three months and the manager and the chef decided that it would be a great opportunity to promote both VIT café and the tomato chilli Jam.
