    2. Mission Statement Zebra lounge is a classy, contemporary wine and tapas bar in the downtown Billings community. It serves high quality wines by the glass and small tapas plates to compliment the wine selections. It will serve as an alternative to the restaurant and nightclub industry downtown. It will cater to downtown business professionals and those looking for smoke-free, fun and upscale atmosphere.

    3. Competitors The Rex, Walkers, Club Carlin/ Q, Jakes, Traxx, The Loft, The Railyard, Hooligans, Rock Pile and Yellowstone Brew Pub are downtown Billings establishments that serve wines by the glass and provide an upscale environment. City Vineyard is located on the west end of Billings and is considered the only wine bar at this time.

    4. Strengths The services offered at the Zebra lounge will differentiate it from our competitors by our smoke free environment, extensive wine list, tapas and atmosphere. We will provide an opportunity for people to relax and serve as a healthy alternative to the traditional bar and restaurant scene.

    5. Weaknesses A potential weakness is difficulty breaking into an already established downtown Billings market. Differentiating the Zebra Lounge from the other establishments will be an obstacle in our promotional efforts.

    6. Growth Opportunity According to Texas A&M University the population in Billings, MT is growing at an average rate of 1.2% per year. In the United States wine consumption is growing. An all-time record 259 million cases of table wine estimated to have been consumed in the U.S., and adult per capita consumption estimated at a new record of 2.88 gallons.

    7. Potential Customers Population of Billings residents over the age of 25= 63,204/ 10 direct threats 6,320 potential customers

    8. Potential Customers Zebra lounge will cater to downtown business professionals and those looking for a smoke-free, fun and upscale atmosphere.

    9. Closing With thirteen straight years of wine consumption growth in the U.S. now on record, and adult per capita table wine consumption at an all-time high, there has never been a better moment to capitalize on the positive trends and emerging demographic imperatives of the market. Meeting the challenges of building the consumer base of the U.S. wine market will provide for long-term increases in demand for wine and profitability for the industry for many years to come.
