Why Should You Pick the Right Mall?

I was in a Sushi Restaurant in a new Mall in north of Manila. I met my friend who is planning to set-up a FX Terminal (see next post below). After the meeting, I stayed behind as I wanted to talk to the Restaurant crew considering we were the only customers and it was just lunch time!!!

The mall has been operating a few months and main customers consist mostly of agents from the nearby Call Center. The mall has a good assortment of food chains (all the big players and not-so-big players) present.

Before, the Sushi Restaurant was one of the early locators and because of the good sales, they started with a crew of 8. Prices range from budget meal of P69/serving to more than P100 for the other Japanese food dishes. That was before.......

When Mang Inasal Restaurant opened and offered their BBQ chicken at P49/serving, the Sushi Restaurant had to reduce their crew from 8 to just 3 guys. They wanted to do delivery service to the Call Center but they just cannot afford the manpower.

Most of the Mall locators are in food and they have built an open area to house more upscale restaurants. The tenant is hoping the mall could try to drum up activities and events to attract a bigger variety of customers.

It remains to be seen how long they can hang-on.
