What is the basis for real estate consulting for highway food service?

Real estate consulting for highway food service covers the entire lifecycle of a site, from identifying locations to optimizing their value. It involves a dual perspective, both real estate and operational, to integrate the specific constraints of highway rest areas and the unique requirements of high-volume food service.

 

The analysis begins with evaluating a location's suitability considering traffic flows, visibility from main roads, accessibility of rest areas, and synergies with other services offered. These elements are weighed against the technical constraints of F&B, particularly concerning extraction, ventilation, safety, and accessibility, to confirm the project's feasibility.

 

Feasibility studies are then conducted to structure the project: estimating potential revenue based on traffic flow, determining seating capacities, organizing spaces, and identifying technical requirements. This phase provides an objective basis for investments, adjusts the concept to actual usage, and secures operating conditions.

 

Finally, the mission extends to creating real estate value: negotiating occupancy terms, optimizing leases, managing fit-outs, and defining value creation strategies. The goal is to sustainably increase the economic performance and the rental or asset value of highway food service spaces.

What is the scope of a real estate consulting mission for highway catering?

Real estate consulting for highway catering covers the search for locations, leasing or acquisition, defining layouts, and marketing premises intended for catering. The objective: to align the locations, technical constraints, and economic performance.

 

We study high-potential locations based on traffic flow, accessibility, visibility, and commercial attractiveness, then conduct F&B checks on usable areas, extraction possibilities, fire safety compliance, and PRM accessibility.

 

We conduct negotiations on commercial leases, purchases, or sales of businesses, paying particular attention to rent, duration, indexation, charges, and lease rights, to secure the economic model and future value of the site.

 

We initiate profitability studies, taking into account capacity and ergonomics, monitor regulatory and technical aspects until project completion, then support the enhancement or transfer of the lease or business to improve asset yield.

When managing the commercial offerings at French train stations, we sometimes need expert support. With its insight into F&B trends, its bold approach, and its commitment to simple, generous cuisine, Tomorrow Food helped us rethink what a significant part of station catering could be (and will be): regional cuisine, accessible to everyone, complementing local restaurant offerings and meeting evolving customer expectations. From menu development to artistic direction, Tomorrow Food assembled a complete and complementary team.

Adrien Lavayssière - Development Director at Retail & Connexion

Aiming to launch a retail-focused innovation lab offering food services, we approached Tomorrow Food in 2023. After several weeks of collaborative brainstorming, we conceived an original concept: Bistro Hasard, located near Saint-Lazare Station. Launched in April 2024, this establishment offers innovative gaming-themed experiences. This unique venture required a complete alignment of visions between Tomorrow Food and us, as well as unwavering mutual trust. By combining these two ingredients, we successfully developed a one-of-a-kind establishment that satisfies customers and is becoming a benchmark.
