  1. Crave! A Partnership between Justin Bartholomew and Kelsi Washburn

  2. The Area I live in really needs a bakery! Why do we need a bakery? • There isn’t a wide variety of bakery products available in Macungie. • We could provide gluten free foods that would fit custom needs of people in the community that other stores don’t have. • The community needs a pace to relax to drink coffee and eat baked goods.

  3. Business Plan • Our business is called Crave, and we will create baked and pastry goods. It will be located at the corner of Main, and Race Street in Macungie, Pa. • Our customers will be drawn to our business because of the quality and diversity of our products. The store will be open from 7 to 7 Monday-Friday, 8 to 1 on Saturday, and it will be closed on Sunday. • The business will start with 20 employees, and make adjustments accordingly.

  4. Business Plan continued • Per year, our business will make $250,000 to $300,000. • Per hour, our front employees (register/preparation) will be paid $7.50. Our back employees (pastry chefs) will be paid $13.00 (these workers will have degrees). • Our logo is the Merlin Cookie. • The slogan we answer the phone with is: “Thank you for calling crave, want new flaves, come to Crave’s”.

They have historical backgrounds, and customers will be interested in trying foods that are normally eaten in other countries.

  7. Strategy/budget • Our strategy is to offer our customers  high quality, international coffee and bakery products with personal service at a competitive price. • Store Hours • Mon-Fri: 7am-7pm • Sat: 8am-1pm • Sun: closed

  8. Background Data: Sales Reports • Baked Goods • The sale of baked goods increased 5.6 % from 2009 to 2010. Operating income increased 65%. • What does this mean? • Since the sales of baked goods are increasing, we expect our business to flourish and be busy. Especially because our products are unique compared to most bakeries. • Coffee • Americans consume 400 million cups of coffee per day, making up 75% of the daily caffeine intake. • The sales of specialty coffee increase by 20% each year. • What does this mean? • Our specialty coffee products will be popular among our customers, and the sales of the product will increase each year.

  9. Customers and Competitors • Customers • Our bakery’s location is close to many schools, so the majority of our customers will be children. Bakery products are popular among teens, and they will be valued in our business. • A lot of elderly people are also close to the business, and they enjoy their sweets. • The layout of our business will be designed to fit the tastes and moods of both categories of people. • Competitors • Emmaus Bakery • Louie’s Bakery • Weis • Our business will deal with competition by offering coupons, special sales, discounts, membership cards, samples, internet service, and sell other items such as t-shirts and hats with our business logo (they will self-advertise also).
