6. FAMOUS FOOD

7. ECONOMY LOCATION Prime One Twelve is the media darling of the exclusive group of restaurants in the hot South of Fifth Street area of South Beach, ranking near the top of the list of highest-grossing restaurants in the entire country in 2007 and proving recession proof in 2009, reporting an unheard-of increase in business and profits. Residents of the beach are not intimidated by the menu prices, (one bone in rib eye can run you about $74). There really couldn’t be a better location for this restaurant to be successful in; locals and tourists alike love to dine at the steakhouse. The fact that Prime 112 has spent a lot of time in the tabloids since its opening doesn’t hurt either, this only brings travelers in to dine more.

9. Social and Global Issues Labor shortage Labor shortage is one of the main issues the hospitality industry is currently faces. Operating Costs Operating costs are also a concern nowadays, and it is important to keep track of all expenses. One way companies in the hospitality industry can do so is byeducating their employees in energy conservation and awareness, which can decrease monthly costs.

10. Social and Global Issues Environmentalism and going green has become a recent trend and little by little, hotels are becoming “Green”. Green properties are environmentally friendly and promote programs that help save water, energy, and reduce waste to help protect the earth. Prime 112 has not taken the initiative to become green yet, but it doesn’t seem to affect the restaurant in any way.

11. Social and Global Issues Ever since the 9/11, and other terrorist attacks, leisure travelers are being more careful when it comes to choosing their destination. With that being said, tourism in remote unexpected areas is increasing rather than going to major cities which are the most prompt to be in danger. Despite these things Prime 112 has not been affected. Safety The hospitality industry is very competitive, not only for acquisitions and restaurants, but also for customers. Some competitive factors as follow; location, name recognition, cuisine, value of property, menu prices, room rates, amenities, food quality and service Prime 112 has managed to remain relevant because its philosophy on service is, “We never say no to a customer. If there is something they want, we do it.” COMPETITION

12. Social and Global Issues TECHNOLOGY Technology is also a factor in social and global issues. In thisnon-stop growing industry, the continuing need for education in technology is a must. Technical skills, along with life skills and passion is very much needed in this industry. Businesses and customers can both benefit from technology because it allows endless communication which makes a pleasant and fast guest experience. Technology has played a key role in the success of the Myles Restaurant Group’s Prime 112 and all other hospitality firms. The use of computer systems, reservation systems, mobile communication such as email, messenger, and of course the internet in general have allowed these businesses to flourish.

13. Conclusion • Despite economic, social and global issues, Prime One Twelve has managed to remain afloat. It is undoubtedly one of the Myles Restaurant Group most famed restaurants. However its success, and the success of its other three Myles Restaurant Group ventures would not be possible without its charismatic, attention detailed oriented creator Myles Chefetz. His dedication to providing his customers with the highest quality products, sophisticated yet retro atmosphere and continuous VIP experiences, has and will most likely continue to set him and his company apart from the rest.
