Describe a situation where customer feedback was of the utmost importance
Feedback from my clients is always important, whatever its nature: whether it be a special request, a compliment or criticism. Comments are not only welcome; they help us do our job better. I can’t think of a particular moment that would be more important than another since it’s always essential to listen to the people who we serve on the daily. Over time, I have made some changes to better meet the needs of my clientele, such as offering gluten-free bread or offering a larger selection of herbal teas. It’s also a great learning experience for me since I am new to this trade, which I’ve only been practicing since the opening of my café, so customer feedback is of capital importance to me!

How important is your clients’ input?
Not only are their comments crucial, but I genuinely love my clients. Without them there would be no business, there would be no Café Sfouf. One can have the best idea of the world: without a clientele to appreciate it, one simply does not exist. I love my clients also for the love they give to me in return. It’s really a relationship of sharing and generosity, that's why I practice this job and why I love it!
