Get our full-day or half-day assessment to analyze your needs
Chiasson Consultants Inc. is a consultancy firm that specializes in helping clients like independent and franchise restaurant and retail operations, bakeries, coffee shops, hotels, resorts, education facilities, hospitals, grocery stores, supermarkets, corporate foodservice, foodservice management, shopping centres, gas bars, theme parks, food commissaries, and casinos build brand identity and customer loyalty, increase profits and sales, and achieve greater success.
Our Assessment Programs are one of our most popular and sought-after services. They are ideal for any restaurant, foodservice, hospitality or retail operation looking for quick answers and solutions on how to improve business. Our Assessment Programs are also essential for owners and operators who are still in the planning stages of their business. Diane Chiasson, FCSI, President, can set you up with several ideas, strategies and advice before you commit to anything.
Full-Day Assessment Program
Great visual merchandising is an essential part of your sales strategy. Innovative merchandising programs convince customers to buy more of what you have to offer. In this one-day assessment package, we will meet with your team and take a walking tour of your facility. We will look at your existing set up and make an in-depth review of your current design, layout and merchandising efforts.
During the tour we will discuss the logistics of merchandising and presentation, eye-catching displays and layouts, cross-merchandising, psychological reactions to colour and texture, point-of-sales material and signage, as well as lighting.
A well-executed food merchandising and retail program will sell your products, your concept and your brand. We will help you gain an extra edge on your competition, providing you with a step-by-step strategy showing you how to capitalize on your strengths.
Creating an attractive, customer oriented ambience does not come without suitable planning, or without a clear vision of the desired outcome. Our expertise will help you optimize your operation and increase your profits.
What you will get with a full-day assessment program

- A full review and analysis of your design, decor, layout, and merchandising, including the appropriate recommendations and how to optimize your space.
- Recommendations regarding retail merchandising options.
- Assessment of your point-of-sales materials and signage.
- Review and assessment of your lighting.
- Assessment and recommendations for your current and future promotional plans.
- Information on current successful marketplace trends and recommendations on how they may be applied to your particular needs.
Cost for the Full-Day Assessment is priced individually according to your needs and schedule. Please email us at chiasson@chiassonconsultants.com for a quote.
Half-Day Assessment Program
This half-day assessment is less intense and detailed than our full-day assessment and is ideal for smaller, independent operations that need advice that is practical and within their reach. The assessment involves an interactive and fully personalized meeting between your team and Diane Chiasson. Diane will offer her advice either on-site or over the telephone using the internet and photographs as a visual guide.
A half-day assessment may be all your company needs to kick-start your bottom line and move in a new and exciting direction.

Take advantage of our photorealistic computer-aided program to visualize your concept
This is an added feature you can add to your full-day or a half-day assessment. This is ideal if you are planning a renovation, store improvement project, or building a brand new operation. We will create a customized floor plan and concept development with our photorealistic computers-aided program. This will give you a concrete and tangible plan, which includes all the important details you need to ensure that the end result looks just the way you envisioned. This is available alone, without an assessment program, or as part of a combined program.
