This will allow the business to further its ties to the local economy. Mr. Bergeon is sourcing a number of inventory and equipment suppliers for the ongoing and one time costs associated with this business. 4.0 STRATEGIC AND MARKET ANALYSIS 4.1 Economic Outlook This section of the analysis will detail the economic climate, the burger stand quick service food industry, the customer profile, and the competition that the business will face as it progresses through its business operations. Presently the economic market condition in the United States is moderate. The meltdown of the sub prime mortgage market coupled with increasing gas prices has led many people to believe that the US is on the cusp of a double dip economic recession. This slowdown in the economy has also greatly impacted real estate sales, which has halted to historical lows. However, due to the low pricing point of the food products offered by Bob's Burger Shack, the business should be able to remain profitable despite any future economic declines. 4.2 Industry Analysis There are over 640,000 restaurants in the United States. Gross annual receipts total more than $193 billion dollars per year. The industry also employs over 10.5 million people, and generates an average annual payroll of more than $40 billion dollars per year. As it pertains to relationships that specifically focus on selling hamburgers and similar products, there are approximately 75,000 businesses that operate within this sub-segment of the general restaurant industry. Each year, these businesses typically generate 15% to 19% of all revenues generated by restaurants within the United States. 4.3 Customer Profile As the business offers an expansive menu of burgers, hot dogs, ice cream, and other products, it is difficult to categorize the average customer of Bob's Burger Shack as many people, of all walks of life, enjoy the products offered by the Company. Management expects that the average customer will be a middle to upper middle class man or woman (usually with children) living in the Company's target market. Common traits among clients will include: • Annual household income exceeding $30,000 • Lives or works no more than 5 miles from the Company's location. • Will spend $5 to $15 per visit to Bob's Burger Shack In the Company's target market radius (approximately 5 miles), there are more than 100,000 residents. Among these residents, the annual household income is $42,000 while median family income is approximately $50,000. The 10 year population growth of the area has been 3%. 4.4 Competition As with any metropolitan area, there are always many businesses that operate in a similar or identical capacity.

Management intends to differentiate itself by operating in a burger stand capacity while serving the freshest quality products. |
