1. INTRODUCTION
Name and address of the business
The name of our restaurant is ‘Taste of Athens’. The name of the business is basically referring to
the culinary cuisines which will serve authentic Greek food for its customers. Athens is known to
be the capital and largest city of Greece and this city has hundreds of restaurants serving Greek
food. Our aim is to bring those dishes to our target customers here in Bangladesh so that they get
an authentic taste of true Greek cuisine. The name of our company is recognizable and easy to
pronounce and has a strong association with Greece and its capital city Athens. The business will
commence by having its first outlet in Gulshan-2. We have chosen this location by conducting an
extensive environmental research on the restaurant industry. Although Gulshan serves as one of
the busiest places in Dhaka city containing hundreds of restaurants making the market very
saturated and competitive, however, Gulshan being the center of Dhaka city makes it an attractive
location for our restaurant. By locating in this particular area can target number of corporates,
middle class and upper middle-class families and most importantly students. Besides, a growing
trend of consumers eating out will aid ‘Taste of Athens’ to survive in the competitive market.

Nature of the business


Our restaurant ‘Taste of Athens’ will be a partnership consisting of five friends and this business
will be B2C (Business to consumer) venture. We have chosen partnership because partnerships
are easy to set up, control will remain within the hands of the partners, taxation is less complex
and less legal formality is required to open a partnership. Our goal is to introduce authentic Greek
cuisines to our target consumers without them travelling all around the world to get the taste of
authentic Greek dishes. There has been a rising trend of working people and students eating out
with their family, friends or peers. As female employment is growing dynamically, this infers that
there is a steady decline on the dependency of homemade food and all of these factors has
contributed to the high growth of Bangladesh’s food and beverage industry.

Statement of Financing needed


The partnership would require an initial financing of BDT. 4,267,316.00 to be paid off within five
years. The loan will be obtained from IDLC under the ‘IDLC STARTUP LOAN scheme’. The
restaurant will be financed using 50% debt financing and 50% equity financing. The loan will

Page | 3
cover restaurant space, fixed assets, and advertising and selling cost. The partners will
cumulatively provide BDT. 4,267,316.00 from their internal sources.

2. BUSINESS MODEL
Business model CANVAS

Pricing Model
For ‘Taste of Athens’, we will use cost-plus pricing method to set the prices of the food we will
be serving in our menu. We have conducted a research on a sample of our target customers to
find out how much they are likely to offer for our cuisine. The result is given below:

Page | 4
The results show that 50% of the sample size are willing to pay around BDT 1000- BDT 1500,
and the rest of the 50% are willing to pay around BDT 1500- BDT 2000. This is why we will use
cost-based pricing to set prices for our menu.

Social Goal
We, the partners of ‘Taste of Athens’ will act in socially responsible ways by considering the
interests of its stakeholders and the wider society. This restaurant will provide employment to
many able people and will contribute towards the betterment of the society by acting in the
interest of customers, government, employees and civil society. We aim to provide high quality,
hygienic Greek cuisine in a comfortable environment. Our restaurant will also pay taxes on time
and will strictly abide by the hygiene standards set by our country. Besides, we have future plans
on doing many CSR activities to create a better society for living.

Sustainability
The goal of ‘Taste of Athens’ is to maintain sustainability in the use of its resources by
minimizing cost wherever possible. We will prevent wastage of food and other resources so that
we can increase our profit margin whilst maintaining quality of the Greek dishes that we
exclusively serve. The growing trend of going out has increased the demand for dine-in
restaurants and s in the market. The number of restaurants in Dhaka city has been growing
exponentially and hence, in order to survive in the competitive market, it is inherent for ‘Taste of
Athens’ to maintain sustainability. Our rules and regulations will be established by keeping
sustainability at the forefront. Our main goal will be to keep our resources running and to use our
existing resources efficiently and to its fullest.

Page | 5
Eco-friendly
Eco-friendly food packages will be used to serve food to our customers. This type of packaging
can be recycled, and reused as well. Such eco-friendly food packaging containers, trays, and
clamshell containers will be obtained from ‘Be Green Packaging store’, which is the world’s
largest premiere website to get biodegradable, recyclable and eco-friendly packaging for
restaurants and small businesses. The virtual store is a B2B (business to business) marketplace
shipping products worldwide. Additionally, the business will carefully monitor the hygiene
factors of its operations and will always try to maintain quality. The staff and the employees will
be well trained to teach them the ways to maintain the quality of the dishes.

3. BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT ANALYSIS


PESTEL Analysis

• POLITICAL FACTORS: The present political situation of Bangladesh is stable,


however, in the near future, if the political condition becomes unstable, it is likely for
Taste of Athens to suffer. This is because, during the times of riot, or strike, the business
will not be able to get its supplies of fresh ingredients.
• ECONOMIC FACTORS: According to the 2018 Index of Economic Freedom,
Bangladesh with a 6.4% growth rate, has attained a GDP of $628.4 billion in 2018 and
$3,891 per capita. Furthermore, it has also seen 6.5% 5-year compound growth rate.
These statistics suggests that people’s disposable income and discretionary income are
increasing, and with their increasing disposable and discretionary incomes, their spending
on luxury products, and lifestyle products are increasing as well. Because, their
purchasing power has increased, it is good news for new businesses like Taste of Athens,
as they can expect a greater number of customers to become their consumers. Most
employed people are now having their lunch and dinner outside, and with more women
joining the workforce, there is a steady decline on the dependency of homemade food, and
an increasing demand for ready meals provided by s and restaurants.

Page | 6
• SOCIAL FACTORS: People are becoming more label and health conscious in terms of
food quality and calorie counts, and are looking forward to healthy choices. This is an
opportunity for Taste of Athens to cater to this segment’s needs, wants, and demands.

• TECHNOLOGICAL FACTORS: Taste of Athens will utilize the advantage of the


development of some new technologies which includes the calorie count machines, and
eco-friendly food package containers. In order to meet with the current market trends,
Taste of Athens will also be developing a mobile app which will help the brand too keep
its customers engaged with the brand.
• ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS: The entrepreneurs of the business will be socially
responsible and will not be conducting any activity which will harm the environment.
Taste of Athens will use environmentally friendly products including eco-friendly food
packaging containers. However, some of the environmental issues which Taste of Athens
should take account of includes the road condition of Dhaka City. Dhaka City faces a lot
of traffic congestion every day which might delay the delivery of fresh supplies to the
restaurant.
• LEGAL FACTORS: The government has passed few rules and regulations to protect
companies from unfair competition, and to protect consumer rights. Taste of Athens will
be following every rules and regulations that has been passed by the government.

Market Dynamics
The Food and Beverage industry is very organically spread, and entry to market is relatively
easier than other advanced industries. Since food is one of the very basic necessities, this industry
is going through an exponential growth recently.

Most employed people are now having their lunch and dinner outside. With more women joining
the workforce, there is a steady decline on the dependency of homemade food. Over one crore
middle income people spending Taka 200 per day for food outside their house makes this Food
and Beverage industry a Taka 60,000 crore industry at least. Being the secondary cultural aspect,
Café, Fine Dining and Post dinner Dessert culture is the current hype of the middle to upper class
urban and sub urban markets due to the unavailability of other entertainment alternatives. At
present, there are 2,816 s and restaurants operating in Dhaka city alone, making the competition
intense.

Table 2: SHARE OF EACH SECTOR IN HOUSEHOLD TOTAL CONSUMPTION, BY


CONSUMPTION SEGMENT (%). (SOURCE: THE WORLD BANK)

In the past 3 years, more than 30 restaurants and s has been introduced in this industry, making
the competition fiercer and more intense. Other than colossal rivalry, providing premium food for
people at a sensible price range seems like the biggest challenge ever in this price sensitive
market where consumer surplus is growing due to the low-price alternatives and substitutes.
Brands not ready to compromise the quality of the food usually face stern competition from the
direct and indirect rivals. On the other hand, due to the investment pattern of the low (in lacks)
but the high end (in crores) industry, everyday a new fair value (low priced) label is being born
with poor to fair food quality making the indirect rivalry even more intense. This me-too practice
at the lower tier is pushing the industry towards an over capacity. Achieving economies of scales
seems like a distant challenge for high street brands. Good news for quality brands is the situation
is slowly changing. People are becoming more label and health conscious in terms of food quality

Page | 8
and calorie counts, which is definitely great news for the brands focusing on quality. The industry
also faces an acute shortage of talented human resource with industry-specific skills in Food and
Beverage sector with the highest employee turnover rates. Scarcity of fresh ingredients is always
a big issue due to the logistic and infrastructure facilities. Fresh from the organic garden (from
the outer belt of the city) is only possible when supplied daily which gets delayed due to the
friendly traffic situation of the city. Another good news is these growers have a limited
negotiation power with their not so differentiated supplies over the big restaurant labels who buy
in bulk from them but the Planet and People Approach and new Government flooring policy in
the growers’ favor is pulling down the restaurant surplus slowly in this Food and Beverage
market. New products, such as eco-friendly packaging containers, calorie count machines, new
technology to prepare 3D art coffee, and smart phones and tablets has all been introduced into
this industry to help the business improve its efficiency and productivity. However, the number
of restaurants utilizing all these new technologies is very few. Restaurants including Fish & Co.,
and Gloria Jeans Coffees use smart tablets to allow its customers place order with the device.
However, in order to cope up with the digital and interconnected world, and adapt with the
changing marketing environment, and current marketing trends, Taste of Athens is planning to
utilize almost all the new technologies which has been introduced into the industry. This will help
the restaurant establish a Unique Selling Proposition (USP).

Close Competitors: Although Taste of Athens is planning to introduce a totally new concept in
the Food and Beverage sector of Bangladesh, and is expecting not to face any direct rivalry from
any restaurants, however, the restaurant will always be in risk of facing competition from the s
and restaurants offering healthy meals and beverages, and from restaurants with a Greek Cuisine
(Which is basically a Mediterranean cuisine). s and restaurants offering healthy food and
beverages include Peyala Café and Restaurant, and the s and restaurants with a similar cuisine
includes Casa Greek – A Greek Cuisine. To sum up, the nearest competitors of Taste of Athens
are BBQ Bangladesh, Case Greek, and Peyala Café and Restaurant. The sales of Taste of Athens
’s major competitors are growing each year, making the competition more intense.
Distant Competitors: Taste of Athens’s distant competitors include BBQ Bangladesh, Nando’s
Peri Peri Chicken, Turkish Bazaar, The Great Kebab Factory, Olea, Favola, Bistro E Café,
Bittersweet Café, North End Coffees, Tabaq, Second Cup, Gloria Jeans Coffees, and Crimson
Cup Bangladesh.

Therefore, the food and beverage industry have a number of s and restaurants making the industry
a very competitive industry. Thus, to survive in this industry, Taste of Athens must establish a
strong point of differentiation providing some unique features and attributes.

Porter’s Five Forces Model


In order to analyze the competition of this industry, Taste of Athens has used Porter’s Five Forces
model.
The model has generated the following results:

• Barriers to Entry: The barriers to entry into the food and beverage industry is very low
as the cost of entering this sector is very low compared to other advanced industries.
However, the industry faces an acute shortage of talented human resource with industry
specific skills in this Food and Beverage sector, making it a challenge for new entrants,
but the new entrants can train employees to overcome these constraints, or they may even
choose to bring labor from abroad. Achieving economies of scale is another constraint.
• Buyer Power of Suppliers: There are many local food growers and grocers with similar
offerings, making it easy to substitute for the owners of Taste of Athens. Considering this
situation, where a single supplier has nothing to offer anything differentiated, it can be
said that the buyer power of suppliers is low. However, there remains a scarcity of fresh
ingredients, but organic garden growers have limited negotiation power.
• Buyer power of Buyers: Switching cost is expected to be high for the customers of Taste
of Athens, since there are no other restaurants offering healthy authentic Greek food, and
beverages, but since there are already a number of existing s and restaurants offering low
prices, customers may shift in search for cheaper alternatives. So, price should be
affordable.
• Threat of Substitution: People are becoming more diversified and health conscious, thus
those who does not want to compromise with the quality of food for a lower price will not
switch to cheaper alternatives and/ or substitutes. Furthermore, Bangladesh also doesn't
have any other restaurant which offer’s authentic Greek food. This is completely a new
concept which will be introduced into the country, hence, threat of substitution is low.

TASK ENVIRONMENT

1. Suppliers: Suppliers play a major role in the operations of Taste of Athens Since, Taste of
Athens is promising its customers to offer hygienically prepared authentic Greek meals
and beverages focusing on its quality, so in order to keep this promise, Taste of Athens
must make sure that their suppliers provide them only with fresh quality supplies of
vegetables, fruits, and other raw materials. The business will get its fresh supplies of
ingredients from the suppliers who will be selling these fresh vegetables at Karwan Bazar.
The good news is that Karwan Bazar is not too far away from Gulshan-2, where the café
and restaurant will be set up. Taste of Athens will establish a value chain with its
suppliers, so that the business can use some leverage over them. The imports including
eco-friendly packaging containers, canola oil, and olive oil, are also important supplies for
the restaurant to conduct their key activities.

2. Intermediaries: Intermediaries refer to the distribution channels which will be used by


Taste of Athens. The brand will be using a both direct and an indirect distribution channel
to deliver its services to its customers. Taste of Athens will use the direct distribution
channel for those customers who will be visiting the restaurant and will prefer dine in. An
indirect distribution channel will be used for those customers who will be ordering food
using mobile applications developed by FoodPanda and HungryNaki, since Taste of
Athens will be using FoodPanda delivery service, and HungryNaki delivery service will to
deliver its orders.

3. Customers: The most important stakeholders are the customers, without them there is no
use of keeping the business since this is a service-based business. Customers must get the
best service in order to grow the sales and increase the brand value. If the customers are
content with the service, they will spread good word of mouth that will positively impact
the business. Taste of Athens will heavily invest on promotional activities to aware its
customers, and offer discounts to attract its customers. A number of campaigns will be
arranged, and in order to keep the customers engaged with the brand.

4. Competitors: Taste of Athens needs to keep an eye on its competitors as they can take the
market share in no time if there is a slight gap found. They can affect the company by
grabbing the market share and customers. In order to retain loyal customers, Taste of

Page | 11
Athens will have to keep updating their service every once in a while. As mentioned
earlier, the nearest competitors of Taste of Athens are BBQ Bangladesh, Case Greek, and
Peyala Café and Restaurant, and its distant competitors include Nando’s Peri Peri
Chicken, Turkish Bazaar, The Great Kebab Factory, Olea, Favola, Bistro E Café,
Bittersweet Café, North End Coffees, Tabaq, Second Cup, Gloria Jeans Coffees, and
Crimson Cup Bangladesh. Taste of Athens must establish a strong point of differentiation
providing some unique features and attributes, in order to operate and serve better than its
competitors.

5. Partners: Taste of Athens’s key partners include its suppliers of fresh ingredients and
coffee beans, suppliers of crockeries, FoodPanda, HungryNaki, Standard Chartered Bank,
Eastern Bank, and HSBC bank.

6. Government: Government’s actions such as changes in certain policies including TAX,


interest rates, inflation rates, etc., will impact the company’s operations.

INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT

1. The Company Itself: The main stakeholder is the company itself. So, if anything goes
wrong or if the company is not generating enough profit then it will affect most the
owners itself. Because a lot of investment will see a loss. It will be difficult for the
company to run in future.

2. The owners: The Company’s operations are going to impact the owner’s investment, and
the owner’s investments is going to impact the company’s operations. If the owners utilize
their resources including finance efficiently and effectively, then the company’s output is
most likely to be productive. On the contrary if the Company’s operations do not run well,
then the owners will not get a good return on their investment.

3. The Company’s Employees: Employees play a vital role in operating the company well.
They are the ones who get into contact with the customers directly. They will work more
productively if they get a sense of participation in the decisions affecting them.

MAJOR COMPETITOR’S TARGET MARKET:

Casa Greek’s Target Market: Casa Greek’s Target market too includes the Generation Y and
Generation Z who belongs to the middle class and/ or upper middle-class families. Their target
market is quite similar to Taste of Athens target market, since both the restaurants will be serving
Greek
Cuisine. Casa Greek’s strength is that they are the first to introduce authentic Greek cuisine in
Bangladesh. However, what will make Taste of Athens different from Casa Greek is that Taste of

Page | 14
Athens will be empathetic about its customers, and will therefore help them to maintain a proper
balanced diet, by following the Mediterranean diet. Furthermore, Taste of Athens will not only be
serving authentic Greek cuisine, but will also create a point of differentiation by serving
hygienically prepared authentic Greek cuisine, organic juice, sugar-free desserts, and as well as
beverages.

Peyala Café and Restaurant’s Target Market: Peyala’s consumer profile too is similar to the
consumer profile established for Taste of Athens. Peyala’s strength is that it has the ability to
prepare healthy wraps and salad bowls, and it also represents the traditional Indian heritage, as
they serve healthy Indian desserts. However, what will make Taste of Athens stand out is their
more varieties of healthy food and beverages which Peyala Café and restaurant lacks.
Furthermore, Taste of Athens will also focus on Greek heritage, as they are aiming to serve
hygienically prepared authentic Greek cuisine.
