Interview Analysis:
According to the interviews we conducted we came to a conclusion that major factor of not making enough revenue by Sindhi Muslim society branch is an issue with the location as it is secluded and surrounded with several restaurants, people have many options for filling their hunger. The employee and supervisor believe that S.M.C.H.S branch is just making loss instead of making profit. Here load-shedding is the key role of sales declination according to staff. However, through their answer we get to know that employee were happy as there were getting their wages on time and the incentives were also paid on except on occasion. It was very surprising when we conduct interview with supervisor, he let us know the price difference in Sindhi Muslim branch and 26th branch. Here is the table: ITEM S.M.C.H.S BRANCH 1300 26TH BRANCH RATE DIFFERENCE IN RUPPESS 80

Whereas batair biryani and beef biryani is new add up in the 26th branch with 290 and 130 Rs respectively. These items are not available in the Sindhi Muslim branch.

Summary
Biryani Center is very well known Biryani in the town. Today the Chain of Biryani Centre in Karachi enjoys a long-held national reputation for excellence in Pakistani food. Initially, when Biryani Center was developed, it had many less competitors. One of the major competitors is Student Biryani. Currently, Biryani Center is facing lots of competition in this market as many private individual have opened their Biryani outlet in Karachi which provides best quality food as well such as Indus Biryani & Season Biryani. These are the major reason of decline in sales of Biryani Center. Moreover, they have attracted many people as a result now consumers have many choices. Therefore, its necessary for Biryani Center to do marketing and promotion so that people who have forgotten about it are reminded. This will help Biryani Center to boost its sales.

Recommendation:
We recommend Biryani center (Sindhi Muslim) to apply marketing strategy in the form of advertising in newspaper or media to boost its sales. Moreover, it can offer its potential customers discounts or deal in the food items as this will attract more customers and will change people mindset in the market. Therefore, Biryani center should come up with different marketing strategy which should differ from its competitors. As its competitors are always coming up with different ways of promotions and discount sales to attract their customers and ensure that customers should not go anywhere else.
