Early in 1999, the three of us, Gretel,David and Chris, came together andidentified the need for a new kind offoodservice industry meeting, onewith a truly European focus. Our beliefwas that the industry was in search of away to combine content and commu-nity, of sharing both cutting edgeideas and a long tradition of convivialsocial gathering.

At that first planning session wepromised to bring our three differentobservational perspectives together –the media, commercial and economicresearch, and teaching – to design aconference that would strive to movethe industry forward. We called thisnew model the 1st European Food-service Summit, a name reflectingboth our focus and our lofty goals.

With this in mind we quickly decidedthat the setting for the Summit neededto be unique, exciting, and border-less. Zurich was our obvious choice.Not sure of how many guests wewould attract, we chose the historic

Sheraton Arabella as our host hotel,beautifully nestled on a mountainsidewith the sound of Swiss cowbells justoutside the windows. The conferenceitself would be at the main meetingspace in the Gottlieb Duttweiler Insti-tute, with planned capacity foraround 125. But, by the openingsession, the list of participants hadgrown so large that a second roomneeded to be set-up in the GDILibrary with closed circuit televisionsand a champagne bar. As they say, itwas ”standing room only“.

The first agenda included presenta-tions from a broad variety of experts,highlighted by Professor Rolf Jensenspeaking about his best selling book”The Dream Society“, Jürgen Knausstelling about how McDonald’s cus-tomized its advertising message forthe German market, and a closing plen-ary panel of industry leaders sharing

their vision of the future. After anopening Wine Tasting Challenge thatevening, the first banquet was toppedoff with industry icon Ueli Prager,founder of Mövenpick, receiving aspecial Lifetime Achievement Award.The EFSS was on its way.

This booklet is a visual reminder ofeach of our friendly get-togethers dur-ing the following years. Remarkably,more than a dozen of the original par-ticipants from the first days in 2000will be attending the 10th Summit thisyear.

But, even before it was time to closethe final first session, the foundersrealized that we would have to finda new home to meet the needs ofthe industry. With the help of ournew volunteer Board of Advisors, forthe 2nd EFSS the decision was madeto move to the beautiful LakeSide Casino at the Zurichhorn onthe lake. This allowed the Summitto expand to a maximum of 250guests. Strong and continued financial

and personal support was givenby our Educational Partners. The Res-taurant Study Tours in Zurich plannedand organized by Jürg Landert andhis crew are one of the Summit’sperennial and much sought-after high-lights.

With the move to the Lakeside, wealso began the special relationship theEFSS has with Marche Internationaland the team of culinary stars assem-bled by Oliver Altherr. Each year, atthe end of the first day, the confer-ence attendees slowly saunter downthe pier to embark on a ”Cruise toNowhere.“ There we spend a gloriousevening aboard a classic Lake Zurichsteamer, dining on impossibly handcrafted delights, renewing old friend-ships, and making new memories.Some hint that there are more dealsstruck on the boat than during theentire rest of the year on land.

� � � Content & Community � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �

� The attendees of the European Foodser-vice Summit have been asking ourselves”What comes after what comes next“ for adecade now. Our goal has always been toaddress the challenges that the industryconfronts to capitalize on new opportun-ities and to minimize unforeseen risks inever shifting market environments. Thereare no more written rules or guarantees,but by creating a community of leadersand learners we can share ideas and facethe future together.

� We started in 2000 to set an agenda forthe European decade. We have seen thecreation and expansion of the Euro as aworld leading currency, the introductionof home grown multi-national restaurantconcepts, the rapid acceptance of multi-ethnic cuisines from Japan, Vietnam, Thai-

land, regional China, India, Ethiopia,Morocco, and West Africa among manyothers. This world cuisine is now part ofthe European national palate. During thesame time, new management techniques,new sources of funding and new forms ofownership have become standard.

� While it has been a remarkable decadethe challenges identified ten years ago –nationalism, social welfare, real estatesites, and governmental regulations – areeven more complex and daunting today.The new European Decade, 2010-2020,presents enormous opportunities fromchanges in technology, migration, agingpopulations, digital natives, and big butmore ineffective central governments.

� The advent of a true consumer society, thesophistication of a new generation of food-service and hospitality customers and man-agers, and the growing stability of the Eurozone combines to create new economicimperatives for regional cooperation andcompetitive market realignments.

2002: PLAY ING THE ATTRACT ION GAME

� � � The Lessons � � � � � � � � � �

� Trend Diffusion Is Almost ‘Instantaneous’� New Consumers Will Look for the Comfortable

‘Hybrid Space’.� Companies Will Win if they Can Identify the

‘Sustainable Competitive Experience’.� Design Is Strategy.� Markets Develop from ‘Experiment’ to ‘Core

Offer’ to ‘Differentiation’ to ‘Customer Relation-ship Management’.

� The Future Is:- Between the Bread- Radical Freshness- Public Livingroom- Meal Solutions- Asia Goes Europe

� Enhanced Connectivity Enhances EnvironmentalUncertainty. Train for Tolerance of Instability!

� The Restaurant Industry Must Become anEmployer of Choice.

� Don’t Try Harder – Try to Do it Differently.� Develop a Culture of Change: Don’t Try to Steer

or Regulate in Detail. Help UnconventionalThinkers Get to the Top. Lead like a Facilitator,not a Conductor.

� Females will lead the market with their male “accessories”.Women’s growing mastery of multi-tasking, networking, caringand other requisites of modern life makes them a more powerfulinfluence on future society than men.

� Consumers want “healthy convenience in an entertaining box”.They respond to emotions, passion and excitement, not justpractical benefits.

� Going abroad demands a strong footing at home. Cross-bordertransfer of concepts and brands is risky unless real strengthshave already been developed in the country of origin.

� Chains’ share across European markets is growing. The top 100European foodservice companies, led by QSR chains and con-tract caterers, pushed up sales by over 5% last year.

� We are locked in a cycle of “institutionalized imitation”. A“temporary monopoly” can be a crucial competitive weapon:The real rewards go to companies who are first in a market nicherather than simply engaging in “karaoke capitalism”.

� Learn to use the differences between “articulate knowledge”and “tacit knowledge”. Knowledge distilled from hard-wonexperience can be just as strong a competitive weaponas articulate or written-down knowledge.

� Pick your market battleground: “the survival of the fittest” orthe “survival of the sexiest”. Techniques like outsourcing andrightsizing have helped big businesses stay fit but future successmay increasingly be won by “sexy” companies which build

strong, direct relationships with their customers.� Use the “lifecycle” to balance: right markets, right products,

right people. Chains which failed to constantly identify theirstrengths and weaknesses and re-invigorate their concepts facethe threat of becoming me-too commodities.

� ”Outsource” to the customer. Getting guests to do some of thework – like selfservice queueing or leaving their hotel bedroomstidy – may be perceived favourably if it contributes to signifi-cantly lower prices.

� Trust the concepts of price elasticity and price discrimination.If products or services are made cheaper – by cutting out frillsand encouraging purchases outside of peak demand periods –people will consume more of them.

� Invest in people and teams, on a local, global, geographiclevel. Your people are your biggest source of competitivestrength.

� Identify the cultural differences. Localize the global brand. Suc-cessful global and cross-border brands succeed when manage-ment allows for a local cultural dimension.

� A magic story is hard to beat! Adding an extra dimension ofcustomer involvement is a vital weapon for global brands.

� The restaurant industry is forever young. Challenge and chancefor foodservice brands and concepts: permanent rejuvenationin terms of design, image, assortment and employee profile,without diluting the core of the brand.

� stop believing in TINA (There Is No Alternative).� real markets will reflect financial markets as we all become con-

nected to each other.� hail the concept of the ‘drink snack’ as caffè latte gives milk an

adult format.� the emergent European fast-casual segment scores by being

innovative (fresh), efficient (fast) and sexy (attractive).� smash your brand! Getting back to your brand’s essence enables

you to determine if it is still working.� smell is a potent marketing weapon – it “transports us across

thousands of miles and all the years of our lives” (Helen Keller).� we really don’t need our toes to climb mountains – you have to

move mountains in your mind.

� quality, authenticity, attention to detail – give people a greatoffer and then manage the queue.

� “What’s in it for me?” – customers ask that every day, and neverforget that they can always go somewhere else.

� the initial “food contact” frequently decides whether we like acountry or not.

� work to live or live to work? That choice differentiates the Ameri-can Dream and the European Dream. But there could be a bal-ance between personal accountability and social responsibilty.

� food = fashion = art = authenticity. Foodservice is on the fashionedge and the way it is projected needs to be constantly re-freshed.

� Spain is one of the healthiest markets in Europe – Florida, Texasand California rolled into one.
