Fazenda revolutionises business processes with Zoho ahead of new London restaurant opening
Fazenda, the authentic South American restaurant chain founded in 2010, is set to open a new 10,000 sq ft venue at 100 Bishopsgate in the City of London this summer. With restaurants across the UK in Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Birmingham, the premium-casual restaurant group has partnered with Zoho, a leading global technology company, to revolutionise its internal communications and project management processes ahead of the launch.
Zoho’s technology suite, including its internal social network, Connect, instant messaging app, Cliq, low code development platform, Creator, social media management app, Social, and project management tool, Projects, has enabled Fazenda to overhaul its communications and project management processes to stay on schedule with the new restaurant launch.
Through Zoho’s consolidated suite, Fazenda has enabled each member of staff to save hours each week through streamlined communications, and planning, using features such as task boards, group breakdowns, scheduled feeds, and automated templates for menus. The use of Zoho’s technology has empowered Fazenda’s staff to improve how they collaborate and communicate, boosting productivity and helping them stay on track with projects.
The integration of the unified systems has allowed Fazenda to take a more strategic approach, creating seamless workflows that enhance operations. This is essential when operating across multiple locations as organisations can understand the complete picture across their entire business at any time. Integration and intuitive user experience should be at the heart of all technology solutions and can ultimately help business growth.
Sridhar Iyengar, MD Europe at Zoho, said, “Employee experience is a crucial focus for all businesses today. Employees expect to have the right tools to carry out their day-to-day work easily, and our technology has empowered Fazenda’s staff to improve how they collaborate and communicate, boosting productivity and helping them stay on track with projects.”
Natalia Andrade, Head of Marketing for Fazenda Group, said, “Communication is a fundamental aspect of our business, and the whole industry, and that requires the right communication platform to keep all team members aligned and well-informed. We’ve tried a number of other internal communications platforms, but none have quite met our business needs across multiple functions and departments in the way that Zoho has. We needed more organisation, we needed to know when and how if tasks needed to be completed, we needed to know who would do them, by what time and other details.”
“There is no way you can have smooth communication with different people who are in different places at different times unless you use common ground. Zoho is our common ground. It has drastically changed the way we interact with each other as a business and it is also happy to evolve, progress and add new features,” Andrade added.
