The waiting staff’s job is to serve food to customers and take their food orders from customers eating in. Counter staff take orders for take away food, give the orders to the kitchen staff and stocking up the counters drinks and snacks. The sandwich makers prepare the food in the kitchen, they are a part of the preparation. The administration assistant at the sandwich bar is in charge of the office procedures by dealing with checking invoices from the products received which is then passed to head office who record the amount of hours worked by the staff for their weekly payments. The administration assistant also sends this information to head office to sort out finance details. The ordering function links in with the sandwich bar as there must be enough fresh stock and products to be able to sell to the customers.

By improving more than one function of the sandwich Plus business, it will help improve the

Everyone should of been there, it was crazy. I walked in the cafeteria like we do everyday and I knew something was going down. A couple kids yelled at me from the table across from us and I let it rip. It was my lucky day, sloppy joe day in the cafeteria. A kid at the other table said something about my mom, and then I picked up the fattest sloppiest sandwich I could find. I launched it at the kid's head and hit him perfect.

Since they have eight stores the name is one that is recognized by customers, so they are confident in the product they will be receiving. Why go to a new business when you have one you already know? The business is owned by Dalman, who is knowledgeable in the area of food distribution and Sandwich Blitz’s menu and Lei, who was previously a certified public accountant. A focus on healthy foods to upscale customers is a strength but focusing on upscale customers also has its weaknesses which we will discuss later. These customers are willing to pay a higher price knowing that they will be receiving
