ABOUT MANAGING DIRECTORSaurabh J Bamane is the Managing Director of HMCS. He got M.Sc. Degree in International Hotel Management with merit from the University of Surrey, Guildford, United Kingdom.

Furthermore, he holds a Diploma in Hotel and Catering Technology from the Institute of Hotel Management, Catering Technology and Applied Nutrition(IHMCTAN) Dadar, Bombay and also Master’s Degree in Tourism Management from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), New Delhi. Moreover, prestigious Davis Langdon first Prize of United. Kingdom is at his merit. He has got wide experience in hotel & retail industries in United Kingdom, Kingdom of Bahrain, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Republic of South Africa and India.

His wide exposure in hotel & retail industries in United Kingdom, Kingdom of Bahrain, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Republic of South Africa and India has allowed his not only to understand different types of clientele base but also different types of consumer behaviour with various attributes of brand perceptions in decision making process.

It has been a highly productive journey in his professional career for instance, during his tenure with McDonald’s in India the clientele based was more unfocused & unaware with Fast-Food concept. In the UK with Costa Coffee (South-East UK), Whitbread Group Plc. it was an exposure with highly educated & more focused customer base and they were more brand loyal than brand switchers. New product development, customer service, presentation, quality were extremely important attributes of brand. Whereas, in the North-East UK, consumers were more brand switchers as they are more cost conscious than focusing more on quality & service of the product. New product development & market penetration strategy hardly works here.

Marketing activities performed were, liaising with BBC in South-East UK to promote Youth Café in Costa Coffee, i.e. drawing attention of Youths towards coffee culture rather than alcoholic beverage.From European market to Middle East market, there was a surge in market behaviour, i.e. in Kingdom of Bahrain with Costa Coffee; fewer options are available to consumers so this creates more of a monopolistic market. However, in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), more options are available to consumers, i.e. not only domestic but also international competition is more prominently observed, here, Costa Coffee has been out-numbered in competition, i.e. more brand switching is observed.

Worked for an upcoming Organization with a vision to expand it’s Operations in South Africa. It was quite interesting to carry out Feasibility Study for a country like South Africa as, it was totally a New Market to be researched and astonishingly, I found that, there is lots of potential than India in South Africa in terms of Indian and Chinese Cuisine.

HOSPITALITY SCENARIOSIn India, it has been many years since Hospitality Services have been neglected. Being a highly resourceful country with its astonishing natural reserves, hospitality sector has been till date a slow developing area of the country.

There are many star hotels in the country. which are trying to take the share from the pie from the ground levels of development. It has been observed that, not all people wish to work under an employer. It is true that, not all people have money to start-up their small businesses. However, some people wish to take risk in-spite of not having enough money. The usual approach is towards banks or other types of investors.

Now-a-days, banks do sanction loans to some of them, It is a very important decision for someone to manage funds in right direction. Not all of the entrepreneurs have sound knowledge of opening their business. This is the time when HMCS comes into picture. We are here to seek to build the best most valued relationships with the entrepreneurs of the hospitality industry.

GLOBAL HOSPITALITY SCENARIOThe hospitality industry being highly sensitive to economic and competitive market conditions will need to address six important issues in couple of years, cost controlling, branding, new expansion strategies, head count management, eco-friendly initiatives and technological innovations / adaptations.

The important issues can be addressed by understanding and establishing strategy to address, consumer trends, economic conditions, technology, competition and concerns for public safety.

Some of the Important Highlighted Areas are:1) Cost Controlling 2) Branding3) China, India & Gulf to Experience Substantial Growth4) Aging Consumers5) Technology is the Key !!!

INDIAN HOSPITALITY SCENARIOThe Indian hospitality sector is certainly the most apt replication of the belief 'Atithi devo bhava'- touch of tenderness, a helping hand and a welcoming visage.

According to the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), the growth in the hospitality industry is pegged at 15 per cent every year, with 200,000 rooms needed, the hotel segment of India is on the brink of an astounding growth.

According to the Tourism Satellite Accounting (TSA) research, released by WTTC and its strategic partner Oxford Economics in March 2009

The demand for travel and tourism in India is expected to grow by 8.2 per cent between 2010 and 2019 and will place India at the third position in the world. India's travel and tourism sector is expected to be the second largest employer in the world, employing 40,037,000 persons by 2019. Capital investment in India's travel and tourism sector is expected to grow at 8.8 per cent between 2010 and 2019. The report forecasts India to get capital investment worth US$ 94.5 billion in the travel and tourism sector in 2019. India is projected to become the fifth fastest growing business travel destination from 2010-2019 with an estimated real growth rate of 7.6 per cent.

PROJECTS COMPLETEDCosta Coffee, United KingdomCosta Coffee from Whitbread Group Plc., United Kingdom (UK), is one of the most profitable businesses in terms of coffee. The major competitor being Starbucks from USA has more outlets than Costa Coffee, however, Starbucks is failing to get high returns from their business. The reason being, Starbucks coffee is not as good as Costa Coffee and the locations are highly expensive, i.e., in terms of rent. Costa Coffee has plans to expand globally thereby ensuring focus on Franchised Operations. Costa Coffee is being approached by many Franchisees and one of them for which feasibility study was conducted is located in North East UK near Leeds region. Costa Coffee was successfully launched in the year 2006 there and is now currently operational.
