The article presents an overview of customer relationship management approaches. These approaches are associated with CRM and CMR systems. The key aspects in them are personalization and individualization in working with consumers, which provides certain advantages for catering companies, including those in hotels. As such an approach, a direction in the assortment policy is considered - a special menu «AntiJetlag», which is most relevant for the catering service of accommodation facilities. This direction of the assortment policy is analyzed on the basis of the restaurant practice of the leading hotels in Krasnodar. The purpose of the study is to identify ways to form a loyalty system through keeping records of features and consumer wishes, based on innovative solutions related to the guest relationship management system based on the special AntiJetlag menu, based on new forms of service and technological ideas. Research methods: analysis, synthesis, generalization, observation and forecasting. Results and discussion: the article focuses on the fact that it is not enough to sell an assortment position or service to guests. They must be sold correctly, based on the tastes and capabilities of the guests. This is due to the trend of personalization and individualization of the guest, which is fundamental when developing a special menu «AntiJetlag». This is how all guest preferences are clarified, including arrival from which city, time spent in flight, whether there are any contraindications in order to choose a personal diet from the AntiJetlag menu using ingredients that help alleviate jetlag symptoms. Conclusions: in order to provide the guest with the best customer service, individualization is necessary in working with him, which is the basis of a proactive service that contributes to the growth of consumer loyalty and increases the likelihood of him returning to this hotel and restaurant complex again.
