The Strategic Role of Hospitality Consultants in PE investments

-
In recent years, the hospitality industry, especially the restaurant segment, has witnessed frantic investments. Private Equity (PE) funds in Southeast Asia have been making a slew of deals, often high profile in nature. This new phenomenon is not restricted only to certain countries. Still, new deals are a slew of being signed across every corner of the globe.


Earlier PE funds were restricted mainly in the energy, oil, and financial services sectors.  The payback period was relatively slow, which went against the aggressive payback expectations of the PE Managers. The retail boom and the upsurge in the hospitality industry led to investments in the chain of restaurants.

PE investments outlook

The future of investments in the hospitality sector looks promising.  Many PE investors are on the lookout for restaurants that are already existing and planning to expand and scale up their operations. The partnership for such expansion has three dimensions to it, and all of them crucial- for they cannot succeed with one another.  

The financials or investments is one part, the hospitality advisers who know the ins and outs of the industry, the second part, and the restaurant owners themselves forming the trio. The advisors play a crucial role as they help to coordinate the restaurant investment relationship. Once the deal is finalized, they play a pivotal role in streamlining the expansion process. It is understood that Private Equity Advisory in the Asia Pacific, who are experts in the hospitality sector, has plenty of experience in dealing with PE investors and restaurant operators.

Many restaurant operators have goodwill in their years of experience and look for investors to upgrade their operations in the retail and hospitality sector's growing commercial boom. For them aligning with an investment partner whose values and visions are in sync with them is crucial for medium to long-term success. Taking the help of advisors is considered useful and thus holds high significance.
