Bakery Business Plan


Bakery Business Plan


Opportunity

Problem

Washington State has a shortage in coffee shops where customers can find high-quality coffee and freshly baked pastries in a more affluent market.

Solution

JJB offers a broad range of coffee and espresso products, all from high quality imported coffee beans. JJB provides coffee and espresso products that are tailored to each customer’s needs.

Market

Hot coffee products are in high demand because Washington enjoys a cool climate for eight of the twelve months. In the warmer four months, hot coffee products are very much in demand. A lot of the day’s activity happens before ten a.m. with a steady flow throughout the day.

Competition

Although there is a lot of competition, the quality of the product and customer service in the local area are not nearly as high as JJB. Customers in the area are looking for high-quality products and a relaxed atmosphere. They want an exceptional, classy experience.

Why Us?

JJB, a bakery and coffee shop owned by two partners, is JJB. These partners represent sales/management and finance/administration areas, respectively. The partners will fund the company from their own savings. This will pay for start-up costs and provide a financial cushion during the initial months.

Expectations

Forecast

JJB expects to make the following sales during the three-year plan. JJB is expected to be profitable by the fourth month as it steadily grows its sales. This time period will see profits that are relatively low for the first two year and slightly higher for the third. The founders will invest $140,000.

Dessert Bakery Business Plan


Dessert Bakery Business Plan


Opportunity

Problem

Washington DC’s Business Improvement District seeks a niche business that blends high-end gourmet fresh-made pastries with fast service to meet its needs on the way home or after dinner.

Solution

Our restaurant is a quick-service one where customers can sit at a bar and watch as their desserts are made. Our main selling points are the show and the dessert.

Market

Rutabaga Sweets places a strong emphasis on local markets and has a particular focus on customers who eat at restaurants and ice cream shops. Washington DC offers a wonderful climate for our dessert shop as Washington DC households spend more money eating out than anywhere else in America.

Competition

Although there is no direct competition for us, we compete with everyone. Our competitive advantage is our niche in an old market. Rutabaga Sweets has an edge over other vendors in the market, such as restaurants, cafes and bakeries. We are offering the customers a completely new experience and far higher quality product. There is no other place where they can see a professional chef making gourmet desserts directly in front of their eyes. The Food Network is extremely popular and shows the public’s growing interest in being a participant in the kitchen.

Why Us

Rutabaga Sweets, a hospitality company, is dedicated to providing high quality desserts in a relaxed atmosphere for customers who are looking for a fun “gourmet experience” outside of restaurants.

Expectations

Forecast

As shown in the chart below, we can become profitable by the second year. The first year’s loss is due to the high startup expenses.

Financial Highlights for the Year

Financing Needed

We’re looking to raise $300K together, with our friends and families. Please be aware that this investment opportunity is not open to outsiders.
