Meesho Case Study Question

Punjabi By Nature, a restaurant in Bangalore, delivers and serves food to its customer. It has been in the business for the last 10 years. Recently the owner heard about Data Science and they want to leverage the opportunity in order to boost its revenue. The restaurant has been collecting the following data since the last 10 years:-
1. Name of Customer
2. Sex of Customer
3. Age of Customer
4. Food item code
Your job is to recommend 2 food items to a customer new to the restaurant. Answer the following questions:-
a. Looking at the data, provide 3 findings for the restaurant to boost their performance
Proposed Solution.

ii. A list of the most popular food item
iii. Looking at the customer’s age and sex you can decide what to offer to a new customer. If the data suggests that a girl in the age group 20-25 likes chocolate ice cream then you can recommend this ice cream to the new girl customer
b. Think of 4 more data points that might help you with the analysis
Proposed Solution
i. Pincode of delivery

iv. Date and Day of service
c. Now, what else can you find out from this data?

iv. Time of order can get you the time at which the restaurant should shoot a particular offer for a specific food item
