1.0: Executive Summary
The name of the restaurant will be ‘Ozone’, which will focus on providing the dishes that are
nutritious, healthy and tasty for the upscale people of the Malaysian town. The menu will
consist of different varieties of sandwiches and salads along with continental recipes so that
the customers can gain maximum nutritional values by consuming it. The distinct menu will
help the company in gaining an advantage over the place, as most of the food that is produced
by the other restaurants are fast foods.
The company will be started by Mr. and Mrs. Ericsson with a capital of $100,000. The
owners will give $20,000 and the rest of the money that is $80,000 will be taken from the
bank at an interest rate of 4 percent. The market entry of the company will not be easy, as
there are many competitors that are operating in the place along with the substitutes that are
present in the area. The suppliers in the market also have the ability to control the rates of the
raw materials that are being supplied to the restaurants.
1.1: Key Success Factors
The major factors that will help in implementing the business in the market in a successful
manner are:
 Repetition of business- The products that will be given by the company will allow the
customers to be loyal to them and they would recommend it to other member of the
society as well. The use of better marketing strategies will also allow the company in
advertising the products in the local market.
 Location- This is another important factor, as the restaurant will be located in one of
the prime areas that will be able to attract more number of customers.
 Sales forecast- The Company has a target of achieving more than $200,000 by selling
the dishes within a period of 5 years.

4BUSINESS PLAN

modern manner along with the choices of salads that will help in providing a better and
nutritious life to the customers.

2.2: Company Location
The restaurant will be opened up near the Petronas Towers, as it is one of the busiest
places in Malaysia. It will also help in attracting more number of customers towards the
company due to the increased number of footsteps in the area. The restaurant will provide a
seating capacity of maximum 30 people along with the commercial ovens and stoves that will
be required for producing the food products (Belasco, 2014).

6BUSINESS PLAN
2.3: Company Ownership
The restaurant will be a sole proprietorship business, as it will be managed by Mr. and
Mrs. Ericson who are husband and wife. The profits and losses of the company will be shared
equally among the owners and will also be responsible for the conditions of the restaurant
that are taking place in the market (Bourdain,2013).
3.0: Products and Services
The company will be providing different varieties of sandwiches and salads to the
customers so that it can help them in getting a competitive advantage in the market. It will
also allow the company in differentiating the products from the rest of the businesses that are
present in the area (Ballamingie & Walker, 2013).
3.1: Competitive analysis
There are many restaurants that are operating in the particular area such as Burger
King, McDonalds and Subway along with the ‘mom and pop’ style that are present among
the locals. They have a large number of loyal customers, which will hamper the sale of the
new restaurant that will be opened up in the area. The use of proper techniques in marketing
needs to be done so that it can attract the customers and spread awareness amongst them
regarding the food that is being supplied by the company (Bellia, Pilato & Seraphin, 2016).
3.2: Market Analysis
The restaurant has classified three major markets so that the products can be sold.
Firstly, the customers of the down town region who are looking for a place to enjoy good
quality food products as breakfast and lunch can be able to get it from the restaurant.
Secondly, the customers who are busy with their office hours can capitalize by getting a meal
within 10 minutes so that they can continue with their office meetings. Lastly, the customers

7BUSINESS PLAN
who have families may take the packed food to their homes so that they can enjoy the meal
after a tedious work day (Choi, Nguyen & Phan, 2013).
4.0: Target Market
4.1: Target Market Segment
The restaurant will target some of the companies so that the employees working in
those offices can avail the food products that are being provided by the restaurant. The
business will also capitalize on the peak hours that is from 12 pm to 3 pm, as most of the
restaurants try to attract the customers during this period. The company will also be going in
to joint ventures with other local companies, as they will be having a better knowledge
regarding the current scenarios that are present among the customers. This will allow in
increasing the level of profit of the company (Bowen, Brenton & Elliot, 2014).
4.2: Market trends
One of the important needs of the customers in the modern world is to stay fit and
healthy so that they can be active. This has resulted in providing the foods that can retain the
highest quality of nutritional values after they are cooked. The use of better quality of
vegetables and meats has allowed the customers to be active and maintain their physique as
well. The restaurant will be using the vegetables and meat products that are grown in an
organic manner so that maximum nutrition can be retained in the food (Chan & Park, 2015).
4.3: Competition and buying patterns
The location of the restaurant in the Malaysian market will enable them in enjoying a
competitive advantage over the other restaurants that are present. The price sensitivity among
the customers need to be taken in to account by the restaurant so that the products can be
priced accordingly. This will allow the company in supplying the food products at a cheaper
price (Fost et al., 2016). The quality of the food that is being provided to the customers will

8BUSINESS PLAN
also be taken in to account, as it will help the company in gaining a competitive advantage in
the market as well. It will also allow in gaining the trust of the customers so that they can be
loyal towards the company and the products that are being supplied by them (Corvo, 2014).
5.0: Strategy and implementation
5.1: Marketing strategy
The company will be organizing an opening party for the people who will be present
in the market on the opening day so that it can spread awareness regarding the products that
are being offered by them. The restaurant will also be using the flyers so that it can be
distributed in the areas and office premises, which will help in informing the potential
customers (Christiansen, 2014).
5.2: Promotional strategy
The restaurant will be promoting the food products through the use of radio and
television, as it will help in attracting large number of customers. Radio is one of the
strongest medium in the country that will allow in attracting large number of customers. The
use of advertisements in the local channels during prime and matinee time will also result in
getting the attention of a large number of customers (Esparza, Walker & Rossman, 2014).
5.3: Positioning strategy
The company will position itself in the ‘high quality, low price’ quadrant so that it can
help them in attracting the customers. The low pricing strategy will allow in gaining a
competitive advantage as well as the better quality of food products will increase the level of
loyalty among the customers (Davis et al., 2014).

9BUSINESS PLAN
5.4: Pricing strategy
The price of the food products will be kept at a minimum so that the profit for the
owners can be minimum. This will ensure that the prices of the food products that are being
provided by the company are competitive in nature (Dermer et al., 2013).
6.0: Financial Plan
6.1: Important Assumptions
 The rate of profit for the company will increase at a constant rate of 2 percent every
year.
 There will be no impact of recession or inflation on the sales of the company on an
annual manner.
 The rate of loan for the amount taken from the bank will be 4 percent
 The cost of goods sold on the products will be fixed at 12 percent
 The financial statement will be provided for a period of 5 years
