Business Plan - Pizza Delivery

-->

Executive Summary


The westside of South Gate has experienced explosive growth the past three years. Over 3,000 new residents live in the westside area. Area businesses are slowly catching up with this new opportunity. Tsunami Pizza is opening a new pizza delivery service that will focus on the westside area.
Currently, the area's closest pizza restaurant takes up to 45 minutes to deliver a pizza. Tsunami will cut the delivery time to no more than 20 minutes. 
Tsunami will offer a better pizza, at a lower price, and will deliver it hot to the customer's door faster than the closest competitor.

4.0 Market Analysis Summary

The westside is a growing middle-class area with 25,000 residents.  A majority of these residents are families of four or more.  The average income for the area is $38,000.   The boom in the area is primarily in response to new employment opportunities in the city's Westside Industrial Park.  Businesses that traditionally do well with this population have demonstrated the potential for Tsunami Pizza.  A neighbor of Tsunami Pizza, Magic Videos, has been in operation in the area for a little over a year.  Magic Videos is the closest video store serving the westside area. Their sales have grown by 40% due to its location and the absence of direct competition in the westside.
With continued growth in the area, opportunities to serve the westside residents will increase.   The company will sell predominantly to individuals, but it will also accept some catering jobs to individual parties and company functions in the westside.


5.0 Strategy and Implementation Summary

Tsunami Pizza will use advertising to promote the business.  We will use the local westside flyer to advertise.  In addition, we will hire people to hold signs at the corner of 11th and Tyler. We will also use door handle flyer promotion throughout the westside neighborhoods.
Our most important promotion will done in conjunction with Magic Video.  We will offer a two for price of one video coupon with each purchase at Tsunami Pizza that can be used at Magic Video.  Magic Video will offer its customers a $2 off coupon that can be used at Tsunami Pizza.

5.1 Competitive Edge

  Tsunami Pizza's competitive edge is:
·       Location:  Tsunami Pizza is located in the heart of the westside area on the corners of 11th and Tyler.  These two streets are the area's busiest. The closest pizza restaurant to the westside area is a fifteen minute drive. Tsunami Pizza can deliver in half the time of its competitors.
·       Low Overhead/Lower Prices: Since Tsunami Pizza only delivers pizza, its prices don't reflect overhead demands of a traditional pizza restaurant.

5.2 Sales Strategy

The sales strategy of Tsunami Pizza is simple. First, offer the customer a superior pizza at a low price. Second, make sure that pizza is delivered quickly. Third, the delivery people must work to create customer loyalty.
