The Multi-Shop Growth Playbook

What changes when you go from one shop to five. The systems, menu discipline, reporting cadence and staff structure the best UK groups use to keep control — without strangling the local magic.

Written by operators, not marketers.

Andromeda has been building restaurant technology since 1998. Our playbooks come from what we see every day in the hundreds of restaurants across the UK and Internationally running on our platform — and from twenty-plus years helping operators turn a messy P&L into a profitable one.

No fluff. No "thought leadership". Real numbers, real levers, and the specific thing to do on Monday morning.
