Thrill International together with Francesco Bauso "The Barman" is at the forefront of supporting the efforts that will be necessary to reestablish successful operations in what we believe will be the New Future.

"Reopen with Responsibility and Success!"

Our goal beginning today should be to focus on how to move forward and be a proud part of the community of professionals.

The following interview was conducted with Francesco by Thrill International where we look to find  effective suggestions and recommendations before the imminent reopening of the HoReCa sector.

• Hi Francesco, what are your impressions of the period we are going through?

We have always adapted to the difficulties and beauties of a constantly evolving planet! Today we are facing a new challenge, one that will lead to new awareness, great satisfaction and the possibility of new and great progress.

A new phase will open and we will have to quickly find the ways that will lead us to new and deserved successes.

Each of us will have to comply with the rules that each government will issue regarding the reopening of the HoReCa sector, but we must remember that we are the real professionals in the sector and have the task of indicating first what the most effective rules and technical measures should be in bringing our businesses back to a successful level.

Hospitality professionals add emotion and sensations which go beyond creating a final product, the cocktail. They offer indelible memories that remain etched in the mind and heart of our guests.

• Francesco, how do you see the re-opening for companies in the HoReCa sector?

As mentioned before, each of us will have to scrupulously comply with the rules that each government will issue on reopening.

The re-openings, although gradual, will certainly be accompanied by new social habits.

Surely, for a while, we will not be able to welcome guests with our usual best smile, since it will probably be covered by masks, but the smile can also be read from the eyes and will continue to be a precious message.

We will have to try to create the easiest conditions on premises that allow respect for social distancing and above all sanitizing all surface, products and equipment that we are going to be used... in particular the glassware.

• Francesco, why did you choose Thrill International as your working partner and why do you recommend it as effective tools for restarting?

Hospitality is a mission, not just a job.

Thrill International with its innovative and functional vision that has always been distinguished, today is at the forefront in supporting its partners and their customers.

Its professional equipment is designed to sanitize and cool the glasses, bringing them down to -40 ° C in a few seconds, without improper use of ice or loss of space in the freezers.

Thrill International will significantly contribute to our "New Future" by building confidence in the mind of the consumer.

Bartender, waiters, managers, chefs are vital to the process in which we work, the right time is NOW! You can plan your re-opening strategy by studying the best training courses for you and your staff. Identify the companies that will be able to support you in your relaunch.
