Schedule 2 additional staff for the 8:30am–2:30pm window. Tomorrow is forecast to be sunny (19°C) and there are 3 local events within 1 mile — a farmers market, a school fun run, and a charity pop-up. Footfall on comparable days runs 22% higher. Under-staffing this window risks queues, poor reviews, and lost regulars.
Based on your average revenue per customer and comparable high-footfall days. Overstaffing this window on a quiet day costs ~£146 — understaffing it costs significantly more in lost sales.
Order 23% less pastry and cold drink stock for the weekend. A train strike on Saturday at the nearby station — just under a mile away — is expected to reduce passing footfall significantly. Combined with a chilly forecast (9°C, overcast), demand for grab-and-go items will likely drop. Estimated saving: ~£34 this week vs your usual weekend order.
