Business costs are rising at a rapid rate, so in order to maximize your net profit, kitchen gross profits must exceed 70%. Good chefs don't always make good financial managers.

Kitchen Gross Profits of 60-65% are commonplace throughout the catering industry

A 10% rise in your kitchen gross profit could increase your net profit by as much as £40,000 to £80,000 per year. The Complete Chef can help you achieve this!

Our courses are available throughout the year, anywhere in the UK and cover all aspects of profitable kitchen management.
 
Currently we have two courses to choose from, both offering 1to1 training in house:-

A little about Tony Robson-Burrell The Complete Chef Trainer

With over 23 years experience in the Catering Industry, Tony has gained a reputation as both a top quality chef and proprietor of restaurants and hotels throughout the South West.

Throughout his career as a Head Chef, he gained various accolades at Red Star establishments and became well known for his modern interpretations of classic British dishes. He was one of the first country house hotel chefs to take on the challenge of running a pub kitchen, and thus put The New Inn at Coln St. Aldwyns in the Cotswolds as one of the area's first GastroPubs in 1995.

Since then, he has built up an extensive knowledge of suppliers through his managerial roles within the specialist food industry.

Having sold a restaurant in Dartmouth in 2004, Tony and his wife Holly bought the Wheatsheaf at Oaksey in 2005 and The Bakers Arms at Somerford Keynes in 2007.
Together they have also been running The Complete Chef since 2000.
