Location

Alberta Street is next to one of the busiest bus stations and a walking distance from several offices and 3 universities. The street has a great view and is a happening place for people to unwind and interact socially. There are usually a lot of activities being held at this place, attracting hundreds of people. The most wanted and demanded thing at a place, with such a footfall, is food. Currently, there is only 1 dessert cart operating on the street.

Food Preparation

XYZ will provide clean, hygienic and high- quality churros to the customers. All the food will be freshly prepared on the cart. The ingredients will be bought on a weekly basis, except for the dairy products which will be bought daily. The cart will have a stove for deep frying and a refrigerator for keeping the fruits and toppings and dairy products. All the tabletops will be made of stainless steel for easy cleaning purposes.

Management Team

We are 2 partners currently operating our XYZ Food Cart business. We have been in this business for the past 3 years. We will be managing the Food Cart business.

Target Audience

Our target audience is teenagers and adults, age-group ranging from 13- 40, especially people who are working or studying in the offices and universities nearby.

Market Analysis: Food Cart business is a fast-growing business. It has grown 5% more than the restaurant business in the past 5 years. The basic reason for the success and growth of a Food cart Business is its low initial investment. Moreover, carts are used for marketing and promotion purposes. They offer a chance to taste a variety of cuisines at exceptional locations.

Customer Analysis: Everybody has a hidden sweet tooth whether they confess it or not. The percentage of confectioner Food carts are a lot higher than the Savory Food carts.  Consumers prefer trying new flavors and the availability of a wide range boosts the product market growth. Food carts tend to be fresh, fast and easily accessible. People prefer the convenience and reasonable pricing.

Competitive Analysis: We did a little research and found out that there are currently 7 Food carts operating at Alberta Street. Most of the carts sell savory items. We saw an opportunity to sell desserts in the area.

Marketing

We plan to advertise our Churros in all mediums, print, Internet, Social Media, and Radio. We will print advertisement in newspapers and magazines. Also, we will place ad banners on the internet to make people aware of our brand.

1. Website: Update our website.
2. Social media pages: Activate the social media pages and advertise the new location.
3. Newspaper: Print ads in all the local newspapers of Portland.

Expenses

Needed sales (Daily): $50-$90
