The Paul Belgium Company have goals and targets set for the success of their business which begun seven years ago. Among their goals, they had a goal of becoming a sustainable business and also of conducting a large cut down on the carbon footprint of the company. Although, a good progress has been shown towards carbon footprint reduction in the previous years, it is a very slow process for a company to progress and become a sustainable business.

At the end of 2015, Paul Belgium Company gave a record of their revenues as $5 billion for that calendar year. The above numbers shows that the company is a major global food and drinks company (Cadario, 2016).

Data and analysis

Staff Data

Staff Data

The graph above gives a highlight of our first data pieces that was gathered by our group. For this data set, we searched each of the three food floors and found out how many of staff members were working in which sections of the shop. The data was catalogued so as to come up with findings of whether there might be any relationship between popular or less popular food sections and how many staff members are placed there (Mazidi & Speakman, 2017). Our discovery after the survey of some of the members of staff that were generally busy (in the food and drinks area),were more likely to have more of the members of staff being placed on those sections.

The above graph give a reflection of the data of how many customers were using the parking lot of the Paul Belgium Company. The reason for the collection of data was so as to understand better whether using the Paul Belgium’s company parking lot would show a correction with the patterns of buying and the more popular sections of the company. The gathering of the data was done through asking the customers if at all they knew about the parking area or if they used it (Lopez, et al 2017). I had earlier known that the company had a parking area, but through the data analysis it was so clear that a lot of customers had no idea of whether there was any parking lot. Parking being one of the tiresome tasks, we believed it would be of a best interest to Paul Belgium Company. This would be an easier way for the consumers to buy what they needed without the hustle of finding a place of parking, thus increasing the revenue of the restaurant .

Rating Paul Belgium Company

In order to comprehend the customer value that Paul Belgium Company is trying to come up with, we did a survey of customer satisfaction. 97, which is our sample, enabled us to understand what the consumers think of the company and its commodities. Based on the system of rating going from terrible to excellent, we ask to see people’s idea of what they think of the Belgium Company in general and basically how they are the brand (Polsky et al, 2016) . Then we did a question that is more specific about the shop in Brussels and basically how they rate the shop.

Customers Rating

In doing this, we see the graph correction giving us a better understanding of the customer value of Paul Belgium company. On the first hand, through the observation of the excellent bars we deduce that there is an important positive customer satisfaction that regards to the company characteristics. In addition, there is no general customer disappointment because there is stabilization of the good and average bars. On the other hand, there is a negative leverage of the margins between the value of the consumer brand and the consumer view of the company regarding to the worst rating that is terrible (Cadario, 2016).

Purchases: frequency and relative frequency distribution

As the specificity of Paul Belgium Company, is the offer a products of wide variety range; this are the different types of foods and also different varieties of drinks and also services such as a restaurant. We wanted to know the reasons people have for buying or eating their foods. From a sample of 87 people, we inquired from the people if they were at Paul Belgium Company for the restaurant and its food and drink provision. The results we got were this:

And the Frequency distributions:

The results give a show of two main factors:

First, very few people go to Paul Belgium company for the purchasing of take away food and drinks. Secondly, 30% which represents the higher percentage of consumers are taking the the foods and drinks just from the restaurant rather than home. This is a confirmation that the Paul Belgium specificity is their main strength.

FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTIONS

The above pie chart gives us a data reflection about how many percentages of males and females gives a contribution towards the sales of food in the Paul Belgium Company. The sample of observation is 127 and the pie chart records 47 male and 80 female. The reason why the female exceeds the male is that Paul Belgium Company is the food restaurant and our 3 day observation was that women visited often the company in order to get and see the new foodstuffs that arrive at the restaurant as compared to the men. The observation still gave us a record that the shoppers spend 10-25 minutes in the restaurant and during this time they would get hungry and focus on purchasing the food from the Paul Belgium company. This is the enough reason why the female percentage is more than that of the males.

The size sample of the graph is 40. The graph has some colored bars that shows the age of the customers that visited the Paul Belgium Company. This observation was made on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. The observation results were that people between the ages of 20-40 visited the Paul Belgium company more than any other age group. Everyone is not able to visit the Paul Belgium company because it is a very expensive food and drink company. The ages between 20-40 had a classier look in terms of their standards, they often visited the company. These people usually comprised of couples that came to the Paul Belgium Company to spend some time during the lunch break. It is seen that the age group of people between 10-20 and 40-65 were very low.

The Paul Belgium Company opens from 10 am in the morning until 7.30 pm in the evening and also from Monday to Saturday.

The busiest working hour is 5 pm in the evening. The majority of people visit the Paul Belgium on weekend rather than weekdays. This is due to the fact that many people are free from work when it comes to business rather than weekdays. This makes the workers to be more active to perform fast services during the weekend rather on the weekdays due to the rush associated with the weekend.

Recommendation and conclusion

In conclusion, we have an analysis of the different data collected individually and at various times of the week. Our result gives us different opinions on the recommendations we got from the Paul Belgium Company. Our first recommendation is that the Paul Belgium Company to incorporate its parking area. Our research shows that the frequent users of the parking lot were there for the primary aim of using the food and drink company. We also found out a lot of people even had no idea of the existence of the parking lot of the Paul Belgium company, therefore our recommendation to this is that there should be a lot of communication to popularize its existence much more openly to their customers.

Another beneficial aspect to Paul Belgium Company is that there should be a division of the staff throughout the restaurant (Bleich, Wolfson, & Jarlenski, 2017). If we consider the data, it is evident that there are certain food sections that are more popular and our interview is clear enough to tell us that the staffs are assigned more on the busier sections but we still found areas where enhancement was necessary.

As the location of the restaurant is on the last building floor, we would recommend that the company should attract the consumers by exposing the restaurant to the passersby. These will lead to the sales increase. Their food scents could influence the consumers to purchase from their company and thus there will be increased sales and also profits made at the end of the day.
