We help hospitality businesses stay in control of profit

Hospitality is one of the toughest sectors to manage well. High staff movement, rising food costs, changing demand and tight margins all put pressure on the business.

That is why your numbers need to do more than sit in software. We give you clear reports, practical advice and ongoing support to help you make better business decisions.

We work with hospitality operators who want to:

  • Understand where profit is being lost
  • Keep wage costs under control
  • Stay on top of payroll and award compliance
  • Track food and beverage margins
  • Manage GST and BAS with less stress
  • Match POS sales with banked income and stock movement
  • Plan for quiet periods and busy seasons with more confidence

Our focus is on hospitality business owners, not just their tax

You do not need an accountant who only appears at BAS time or year-end.

You need someone who understands how service, staffing, stock, pricing and seasonality affect your bottom line. We look at the full picture so you can make smarter day-to-day decisions, not just meet deadlines.

At Coleman Financial Group, we help you keep the business clear, organised and easier to manage. That means less guesswork, fewer surprises and more confidence in the numbers.

Whether you run one site or several, we help you build better control around the moving parts that affect performance every day.

Fast turnaround and practical support

Hospitality does not slow down, so your accountant should not slow you down either.

We focus on practical support, timely reporting and clear advice that helps you respond faster. Whether you need help with BAS, payroll records, cash flow pressure or stocktake issues, we work to keep things moving.

With the right support in place, you can spend less time chasing numbers and more time running the venue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is hospitality accounting different from general accounting?

Hospitality businesses often deal with tight margins, changing wage costs, busy trading periods, stock movement and high daily sales volume. That means the numbers need closer tracking and more regular review than many other types of businesses.

Do you only work with restaurants?

No. We can support a wide range of hospitality businesses, including cafés, bars, takeaway shops and other venue-based businesses.

Can you help me lower my food costs?

Yes. We look at your “Food & Beverage Cost Control.” By checking what you buy and what you sell, we can find ways to save money without changing your menu.

What is a good food cost percentage for a restaurant?

For most successful businesses, food costs should be between 30% and 38% of your total food sales. If your costs are higher than 40%, you might be losing money. We help you check your menu prices to keep your profit healthy.

How often should a hospitality business review its numbers?

Most hospitality businesses benefit from reviewing their numbers regularly. Monthly reporting is common, but some businesses need more frequent review depending on their size, costs and trading conditions.

Do you help with GST and BAS for hospitality businesses?

Yes. We help keep your records organised and support accurate GST and BAS reporting, so lodgements are easier to manage and less stressful.

Can you help with stock control and stocktake reconciliation?

Yes. We help review stock data and stocktake results so you can spot variances, improve reporting and reduce issues that may be hurting profit.

What is break-even analysis and why does it matter?

Break-even analysis shows how much your business needs to make to cover its costs before it starts making a profit. It helps you set sales targets, review pricing and understand how costs affect performance.

Your financial future starts with a conversation.
