The Rival Watch

Bilal Chaudhry · founder, Dastarkhwan Group — six rival chains, zero paid scrollers

Every competitor launch Bilal hears about, he hears from a cousin, three days late. Six rival chains post daily — deals, new branches, new menus — and nobody at Dastarkhwan is paid to scroll.

The Rival Watch reads the rivals’ public feeds and pages for him, and files one Monday brief: who opened what, who dropped prices, who’s hiring where.

The mock

A sketch of the Monday rivals brief — not yet built for a client, which is why it fades out.

Dastarkhwan Group

Rival Watch — week 23: two launches, one price move

6 chains tracked · public socials, pages, and job boards

Khaas Karahi — new branch, DHA Phase 6

Their fourth in Karachi; opening deal 30% off dine-in. Two of ours are within 3km.

Lazeez Express — family deal at PKR 1,999

Ramzan-style pricing in June — unusual timing; watch whether it holds past launch week.

BBQ Junction — hiring in Johar Town

Kitchen-staff post suggests a third Lahore branch. No announcement yet.

What we’d build

What arrives: a Monday brief of competitor moves — openings, menu changes, price moves, big campaigns — from their public socials and pages.
When: weekly, before the management call.
Your part: it reports what rivals did; what Dastarkhwan does about it stays in the Tuesday meeting.

The essentials

We run this for you. You don’t operate anything; the brief just arrives. Your decisions: which rivals are on the list and what counts as a move.

Build time: 2–3 weeks
Honest note: Public signals only — it reads what competitors post, not what they whisper.
