Restaurant turnaround in India
India is a vast, fast-growing and intensely competitive F&B market — high volume, thin margins, and delivery-aggregator economics that can make or break a brand.
28+ years · 45+ restaurants launched · 300+ projects · founder-led
Revenue looks fine. Nothing is left at the bottom.
FSSAI licensing, GST and state-by-state rules, heavy delivery-commission economics and a price-sensitive but brand-hungry diner make unit economics and menu engineering decisive in whether an India rollout scales or stalls.
- Food cost has crept up quietly — supplier prices, portioning and waste, none of it tracked weekly.
- Labour is scheduled to comfort, not to covers, so the wage line moves with nobody watching.
- Delivery aggregators take a larger cut than the dine-in margin can carry.
- The menu sells the wrong items — the ones customers love and the kitchen loses money on.
The GGB approach
A structured 90-day reset — not a pep talk.
We find where the margin is escaping, fix the biggest leaks first, and put weekly P&L discipline in place so it stays fixed.

Results, measured
We don't trade on logos. We show you the numbers.
Premium engagements are confidential — that discretion is part of what you're buying. What we show openly is exactly how a GGB result is measured; the named, classified outcomes we walk you through in conversation.
Food cost %
Theoretical vs actual, by item and by outlet — usually the fastest margin to recover.
Labour vs sales
Productivity per shift measured against revenue, not a blanket headcount cut.
Delivery economics
Channel mix and menu pricing rebuilt around real aggregator commission.
Payback
Every intervention measured against the capital and the time it takes to return.
Questions
- Do you work in India?
- Yes — GGB works across India, including India, plus Singapore, Oman and India. Premium engagements are founder-led.
- How fast can a turnaround show results?
- The first leaks are usually visible inside the first month; the structured reset runs over 90 days. Results depend on the real numbers, not a promise.
- Will you work with my existing team?
- Yes. The point is to leave your team with the discipline and tools to hold the gains, not to depend on us forever.
- Is the Profit Leak Audit confidential?
- Yes. The instant estimate is free and confidential; the full review works from your real P&L under NDA if you prefer.
