2.1.2 Assume you are the new owner of a franchised Nando’s fast-food outlet. The outlet you have
purchased allows for customers to be serviced via three different channels, namely:


• Sit-down customers who walk into your outlet, sit at a table, and order from the menu through
waiters servicing the tables.
• Customers who walk into the outlet and order from the menu on a take-away basis, and then
wait for their food to be prepared and hander over.
• Customers who order from the menu on a take-away basis using the drive-through. These
customer’s order from the menu, on a take-away basis, whilst in their car. They then wait for
the food to be prepared and handed over.
