Impresario Plans To Open 8-12 Social Outlets In Pune In 2 Years
The high-end
restaurant operator Impresario has planned to open 8-12 new Social outlets in
Pune over the next two years with around Rs. 20-30 crore of investment. The
first Social outlet, Viman Nagar Social was opened on March 8 at the Phoenix
mall. Social is a concept chain that relies on keeping operational cost low and
breaking even faster than other chains. With the Social chain, Amlani is also
trying to experiment with something unique. To put to use the space better on
weekdays (when footfalls are low), he has introduced the concept of using the
restaurant as a co-working space.
Impresario’s CEO
and MD Riyaaz Amlani said, “Social is aimed at youth in 21-35 age group of
which there are plenty in Pune. The idea is to build a core clientele. We
charge only Rs. 5,000 a month and patrons can redeem the same against food and
drinks. So, the space, electricity and wi-fi is completely free of cost.”
A Chain of other
high-end restaurants like Smoke House Deli, Mocha, Salt Water Cafe are operated
by Impresario, some of them in other cities like Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore.
