Fresh Food in focus – Intrx creates a healthy, efficient restaurant environment

Where should people stand, and how should the line flow? There were all kinds of Qs about the queues when we were asked to build a new unit for Fresh Food in Örebro. Today, guests are welcomed in to a restaurant where the flows have been perfectly optimized – both front-of-house and in the kitchen.

We started off by producing a detailed plan of the kitchen’s layout, including the flow and furnishing. Based on this, we then analyzed staff efficiency. We looked at everything from the distances staff needed to walk to do their jobs, to the flow of each product from arriving at the restaurant to being served to the customer. We also produced 3D drawings to visualize what the restaurant would look like in finished form. There was great emphasis on creating a space that exudes health and a healthy lifestyle, in line with Fresh Foods’ green colour palette.

We designed a customized route, with a start point and then an end point at the checkout. Guests choose their own salad toppings, then pass the beverage station, and finally arrive at the checkout.
