In Singapore’s tropical climate, people would always carry an umbrella to protect them from the sun or rain. This influences our small beverage business because we do not have a stable customer flow having this bipolar weather in the country. When we contracted an awning supplier, everything changed.
We did not know that owning a retractable awning in Singapore is just what we need to improve our business and boost our customers’ satisfaction. Mainly, our target is quenching the thirst of our customers with our citrus-flavored drinks on a hot or rainy day. This made us forget our overall setting which is a location where the afternoon heat directly hits our glass doors and windows. Knowing that the afternoon heat contributes more heat in our air-conditioned shop, finally, we looked for an awning supplier in Singapore to help us.
After the installation, these were the results that we have noticed:
Expanded our space
We can provide tables and chairs outside of our store because of the awning. This would allow us to cater to more customers than usual. Therefore, we earn more than usual and made this an investment that is worth every dollar.
Convenient features
They recommended us an automatic retractable awning that has a built-in motorised system that we could operate. In unexpected times where rain is our rival, we can just control the awning to its most extended feature then it would protect our customers outside. Its water-resistant feature made prevented any stain that could develop in the pooling of rainwater on the awning cover.
Controlled the temperature inside
When our afternoon customers would like to chill in our store or get some shade, we can just open the awning to keep the temperature low inside. These helped in preventing the glare of the sun from penetrating through our glass doors and windows.
Protected our customers
Besides the pouring rain, customers outside our store are vulnerable from any debris that might fall from the sky. Having this awning opened whenever we have customers who prefer to drink outside, we are able to give them extra protection. This helped keep our servers, our tables, and our chairs as well.
It is durable
Our awning supplier assured us that they have provided us with a high-quality awning that could last more than 5 years with proper care and maintenance. An awning that is made from vinyl and polyester composite fabrics offers durability that is worth spending on.
With all of these benefits that come with installing an awning, we would surely have them install one for our 2nd branch. Maybe we might even consider having an awning installed there also. We are grateful for our awning supplier who also installed it. They are called Shadetimes.
Having an awning is much more affordable than glass roofs in Singapore. So, if you are looking to have one in your house or restaurant, you can contact them at their website http://www.shadetimes.com/.
