If you are considering setting up a business in the service industry or have just managed to set up a cafe, restaurant or bistro it is likely that you will already be aware of the business basics. The first thing you would have considered by this point is your working capital, which is a major factor when establishing any type of business.

Once you have made your first major investment, which will be either rental premises or bought premises, then you will need to turn your attention to the business equipment, bistro, and restaurant or cafe furniture.

After paying for your premises it will be the kitchen equipment and cafe furniture that will cost you the most in terms of financial outlay, however, your cafe furniture and kitchen equipment are an asset to you (and this also shows on your business plan).

Here are a couple of quick tips when you are buying your bistro or cafe furniture which will save time and money:

If your budget is tight then keep your cafe or bistro furniture plain with simple lines, the more extravagant your bistro furniture the more expensive it will be.

Consider online cafe furniture suppliers because they will be much faster to use when making a purchase and considerably cheaper than a high street store.

Don’t buy cheaper bistro furniture because you think it will save you money, in the long run it won’t and it is likely to need replacing quickly.

When it comes to online cafe furniture suppliers, we at Cafe Reality are one of the largest and most professional in the business.
