  • Market Insights Restaurants Dealreader
    Restaurants DealReader 2H 2018 Market Insights 2018 was a busy year for M&A in the restaurant sector and appetite for investments remains robust headed into 2019. Despite recent macro variability and the sector facing a number of challenges, primarily related to traffic and minimum wage hikes, strategic acquirers, private equity groups and family offices continue to be active. Investors with multi-brand portfolios are typically seeking investments that can either provide incremental growth (particularly if their current portfolio has experienced flat-to-negative comps), expand their competencies (especially related to digital technology) or provide meaningful synergies from day one (although buyers are not as forthcoming in pricing in such synergies to the valuations). In regards to growth equity, we expect strong activity to continue in 2019, especially for differentiated fast casual concepts. Investors will continue to be interested in concepts that are on-trend (e.g., healthy, better-for- you menu), have demonstrated strong consumer engagement, have a model that is proven across multiple geographies (without any store closures) and that have a well-defined growth story in terms of scaling up.

  • Amrest Acquires Starbucks Business in Germany
    AmRest acquires Starbucks business in Germany Wroclaw, Poland, 20th April 2016, AmRest Holdings SE („AmRest”, “the Company”) (WSE: EAT), the largest publicly listed restaurant operator in Central Europe, announced today that on April 19th, 2016 the Company signed an agreement with Starbucks Coffee Company to acquire its equity stores in Germany. The transaction will come into effect as of May 23rd, 2016 and will result in AmRest having the license to operate and develop Starbucks brand in that country. Since entering Germany in 2002 with two stores in Berlin, Starbucks business has expanded to 158 stores across the country. The portfolio of 144 equity cafés together with 14 licensee stores makes Germany the largest market for Starbucks in the continental Europe. “We’ve built an impressive business in Germany over the past 14 years, employing nearly 2,000 partners across the market. But we know Germany could be a much bigger market for us and we have ambitious growth plans to be where our customers live, work and travel.” - said Kris Engskov, president of Starbucks, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). He continued: “We are proud to expand our partnership with AmRest, who are recognized across Europe as one of the most entrepreneurial, people-focused companies in food retail, and have been remarkably successful in bringing the Starbucks experience to these important markets.” AmRest has been a partner licensee for Starbucks since 2008, when it opened its first café in the Czech Republic. Since then, AmRest has developed Starbucks stores in Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania and recently adding Slovakia, where the first Starbucks is planned to be opened by mid 2016.

  • AMREST an Effective Recipe for Robust Global License Management
    AMREST An Effective Recipe for Robust Global License Management COMPANY BACKGROUND AmRest operates restaurants such as Burger King, Pizza Hut and Starbucks in Central Europe, Eastern Europe and as far afield as China. It uses numerous retail and business software applications – from point-of-sale to engineering and business software – to support more than 25,000 staff. CHALLENGE Without strong controls in place, license management was extremely painstaking. Obtaining the right information regarding licenses and entitlement involved analyzing a mass of data. With multiple audits from major vendors to manage, accurate discovery for an IT estate across a global operation was a prerequisite for ensuring the company was correctly licensed. SNOW’S CONTRIBUTION The Snow Platform, comprising Snow License Manager, Snow Inventory and Software Recognition Service, is installed on-premiseSnow enables the company to identify license risks and provides a platform for effective Software Asset Management. BUSINESS BENEFITS • Accurate inventory and discovery giving full visibility and insight into actual license usage • Identification of more than €150,000 of unlicensed and unauthorized software • Optimization of licenses and significant cost reduction • Introduction of business unit charge backs for license costs • Creation of a white list of approved applications SAM HERO Pawel Szczepaniak, Software License Manager at AmRest, explains the benefits of devoting resource to strong license management. “In less than 12 months thanks to Snow, I have been able to transform how the company views license management. As a result, the need for a new role was created to focus specifically manage and optimize licenses across AmRest’s global operations.” SNOWSOFTWARE.COM MANAGING EXPENSIVE SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS “Using Snow, we have identified AmRest is the largest independent restaurant operator in more than €100,000 of unlicensed Central and Eastern Europe.
