History:
As Filipinos, we are very fond of drinking coffee no matter what season or weather we
are in. The company name Cafe Pi was derived in the Ilocano term ‘kape tayu pay’ implying to
encourage everyone to have a cup of coffee. The symbol pi used as a substitute for the smoke of
the coffee symbolizes that, our hobby of drinking coffee remains constant or unchangeable
regardless of any season, time and place we go. It is innate in every Filipino to drink coffee for
breakfast, and snacks. Students use coffee as a stimulation for the brain when reviewing to
prepare themselves for their incoming activities and examinations. Thus, we came to take
advantage of the popularity of coffee to start a company named CAFE PI which will be serving
Planning:
Cafe Pi is a service type of a business. It will be managed and operated by nine students.
It is a coffee shop that will be located at the second floor of seven eleven (7/11), Macanaya,
Aparri, Cagayan. It will be serving different variety of coffee such as black coffee, ice coffee,
macchiato, and other flavors but our main recipe is the ‘barako’. It will also be serving freshly
baked bread and pastries to pair it with your coffee. Cafe Pi is a coffee shop and review center at
the same time for students that will visit the shop. We plan to coordinate with Mr. Donut for our
bread and pastries since it is one of the best-selling pastries in Aparri, Cagayan. After a few years
of operation, if the business became popular with the customers around Aparri, we plan to make
a branch in Sta. Ana, Cagayan. We chose Sta. Ana since it is one of the best tourist-spot in the
province and we believe that it is a great place to start another business aside here from Aparri,
Cagayan.
We plan to use different social media platforms in promoting our business most
especially the application Facebook since almost all of us have an account on FB, this way it will
be easier for customers to discover our business. Aside from the use of social media platforms,
we will create plyers containing the description of the business' products, its sample menu and
the location.
The Business is open to all ages, most especially to students from elementary to college
since it is also a review center. Anyone can visit the shop whether it is for the coffee, a place to

Decision Making:
There are many businesses opportunities arising from the different corners of Aparri such
as clothing line business, milk tea shop, academic commission, water refilling station and other
businesses, but we chose coffee shop as a business. Filipinos are very fond of drinking coffee; it
is an unchangeable and constant hobby no matter what weather or time it is. Coffee with bread as
its partner serves as a breakfast for older people and sometimes it becomes their snacks. This
hobby is becoming a culture that almost all of us are doing this in our every day lives, it also
serves as one of the stimuli for students most especially when they are reviewing for their
upcoming examinations or activities. We took advantage of this hobby to create our very own
business with a company name Cafe Pi. We believe that this business will be popular among all
ages since the hobby of drinking coffee remains and it is being pass to the next generation as one
of the Filipino cultures. We choose to cooperate with Mr. Donut as the company’s supplier of
bread and pastries since it is one of the best-selling breads in the municipality of Aparri and we
hope that by cooperating with Mr. Donut, both businesses will improve and be popular among
the mass.
Directing:
Every month, Cafe Pi will choose the best employee/ staff based on their performance
and the chosen employee/staff will receive a cash compensation. This activity every month will
encourage and motivate other employees to do their best for the following month so that every
staff will do their job passionately. All owners will be involved in choosing the best employee/
staff of the month with the help of their own employees. Each employee will nominate someone
basing from what they observed in his/her performance, and the owners will evaluate all the
nominees to choose among them, who will become the best employee of the month. By doing
this kind of Contest inside the business, it will motivate everyone to do their jobs and to improve
their performance. Improving the employees' performance will also improve the business,
because the employees/staffs are the heart and core of the business. Without the employees, the
