Unifying a multinational restaurant portfolio — I partnered with Chanticleer Holdings to assess technology across brands in the U.S., Europe, and Africa, and to lead the RFP process for a consolidated financial system that could unify the company worldwide.
Challenge
Chanticleer Holdings, owner and operator of multiple international restaurant brands, faced the challenge of managing technology and financial operations across a geographically diverse portfolio. Leadership needed a clearer view of system performance, financial reporting, and operational controls spanning different countries and brands.
Key contributions included
Global Technology Assessment – Conducted a comprehensive review of infrastructure, systems, and processes across Chanticleer’s brands in multiple regions, identifying gaps and creating a modernization roadmap.
Financial System Consolidation RFP – Led requirements gathering and vendor evaluation for a new financial system designed to unify reporting and controls across the entire international portfolio. The goal was a single, consolidated platform that could handle multi-brand, multi-country operations while providing accurate, timely data to leadership.
Outcome
The engagement gave Chanticleer a clear technology modernization path and a unified financial backbone, enabling them to operate their portfolio with greater consistency, transparency, and control across continents.
