Keeping track of all the trends in the service industry can be enough to make your head spin. But whether you are in charge of the city’s hippest new spot, or a pizza joint that has been in the same location for literal decades, you still need to make sure your customer service reputation remains at the top. One easy way to do that is by making sure your establishment is friendly to the environment.

Be Green

Although Earth Day is usually observed in the middle of April and not the beginning of August, that doesn’t mean you can’t change your ways. Every day is Earth Day, from a certain point of view. Follow all health code standards, even if you think that they are ridiculous or unattainable. Keeping your restaurant clean is one of the quickest ways to attract and retain customers.

Marketing your establishment as a charming hole in the wall only locals know about doesn’t need to be quite so literal. When you use industrial-strength cleaning solutions, you also run the risk of exposing everyone to toxic chemicals. This is never a good look. You don’t want your customers to be overwhelmed by the smell of bleach either. That’s the biggest reason why green cleaning products are the way to go.

Recycle

Maintaining a reliable recycling and composting system is another secret to success. By continually recycling and composting, you can help keep waste out of the nearby environment. This way, all of your paper and plastics won’t be left behind as simple refuse that will also drag down the curb appeal of the area immediately outside your eatery. Make sure that you make a big deal about the recycling and composting work you do. It’s an easy way to grow your customer base, no matter what type of cuisine you offer.

Save Water

Finally, do whatever you can to save water. When you do this, you can cut down on your energy bills, which will give you more wiggle room to give your existing employees better wages, expand your staff, and revise and update your menu to make it even more exciting for both repeat customers and newcomers alike!
