Entrepreneurial Opportunities: Sources, USP, and Market Analysis

This report explores entrepreneurial opportunities within the fast-food industry. It begins by defining entrepreneurial opportunities and outlining various sources of business ideas and innovation, drawing on Drucker's seven sources of systematic innovation. The report then proposes a fast-food business concept, "Organic Treasure," and defines its Unique Selling Proposition (USP), followed by an analysis of the market gap. A questionnaire is conducted to gauge customer preferences for fast food items and services, and the findings are analyzed to identify market demand. The report also examines the business's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) to assess its potential for success. Furthermore, a PESTLE analysis is used to evaluate the market conditions in which the product and services will operate. The analysis covers market segmentation, competitive forces, and the application of models such as Porter's Five Forces to understand the competitive landscape and the factors influencing the fast-food business's viability and success. The report concludes with an overview of the findings and their implications for the proposed venture.
