One or two people actually sit at a four-person table

Reworking the seating raised how many guests the same floor area can hold.

From problem to result

Problem
Layout built around four-person tables, with no record of actual party size
Applied and measured
Seating gets laid out once and rarely revisited. saai insight measures average party size per table and seat occupancy, showing the gap between actual use and the seating plan. Whether to swap the tables was the store operations team's call.
