branches, located in different strategic locations in the metro. Since many of its clientele
have embraced the warm hue and ambience of the said internet cafe, not to mention
the speed and quality of every computer provided. A lot of its own client have come

TheNet.Com was opened for franchise. To date, with its more than 40 branches in
operation, TNC Cyber Cafe is now among the fastest growing internet cafe in the

6.2 Location Decision

The place is ideal because it is accessible to the public, along the highway and
the target clients are mostly students. These are plenty of competitors in this area,
however, since TNC offers quality services, high speed internet connection and above
standard hardware and software system, it will most likely attract client of all ages. And
due to its accessibility to the public, it is more visible to high foot traffic, people just
strolling the area and even passengers of public utility vehicle will see the internet cafe.

X. Capacity Measurement

Whether it was to pass the time browsing the web, doing some work or chatting
to relatives, internet cafes are making a comeback after the internet vastly improved
through time. Back then, web 1.0 was slowly developing and access was limited and
slow. For a small fee, internet cafes provided the equipment, connection and coffee.
The demand is there; The major clientele group would be the vibrant student
population. Manila is home to a great number of educational institutions, both
neighborhood high schools as well as sprawling campus universities. All these students
need internet to research and study. By providing fast and reliable internet, the cafe
would serve as an ideal place to focus on independent study or to study as a group.
You could even jump on the recent PC bang trend and offer a multiplayer gaming area.
In terms of location, they maximize their sites near schools. This is because students
prefer travelling a short distance to their local internet café.
After just a year, TNC Cyber Café established six (6) more branches, located in
different strategic locations in the metro. Since many of its clientele have embraced the
warm hue and ambience of the said internet cafe, not to mention the speed and quality
of every computer provided. A lot of its own client have come forward to ask, if they
could franchise TNC Cyber Café. That is the reason why TNC Cyber Café was opened
for franchise.
To date, with its more than 40 branches in operation, TNC Cyber Cafe is now
among the fastest growing internet cafe in the Philippines.
