Description of Venture
THE BUSINESS IDEA
The Hooligans is a sports theme based restaurant looking to attract the increasing number of people who love various sports. It will cater to the burgeoning upper middle class and sports enthusiasts especially of football and shorter versions of cricket (Twenty20). This is an unexplored market since the majority of the cafes in Pakistan are either unaffordable or they do not provide an adequate facility where friends can hang out and enjoy their favorite sports action.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

The business will focus on establishing a sports theme restaurant where people can enjoy their favorite sports on the large screen TV, or just talk about it with friends while enjoying our tasty food and drinks. Cafes and other expensive eatery outlets seem to be the in-thing. When deciding on which place to eat at, people usually consider the quality, price, perhaps dcor and style. Often, new places are tried just because they offer something different. We aim to capitalize on this and see the sports theme as our unique selling proposition.

GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION
We are looking for a restaurant space of approximately 2,000 sq. ft. in Zamzama commercial area, Defense. This area is easily accessible, and public transportation is also available to get to this place. There are no parking and street lighting issues either.

EMPLOYEES
The labor component of the project will be handled through advertising in a nationwide newspaper of good standard, tentatively which is expected to be Jang and Dawn. The management will be looking for a combination of individuals with past experience, excellent manners, a satisfactory level of language capability and enthusiasm. Since the management will be offering above average wages we expect to attract the crme of the workforce and hope for low employee turnover.

The business will focus on establishing a restaurant where people can enjoy their favorite sports on a large screen TV, or just talk about it with friends while enjoying our tasty food and drinks.

LAYOUT
To accommodate the different groups of customers, we will use tables for four that can be pushed together in areas where there is ample floor space. This gives us flexibility in accommodating both small and large parties. Booths for four to six people will be placed along the walls, and ample space would be reserved for storage, food preparation, cooking, baking, dishwashing, aisles, trash storage purposes, as well as designated areas for employee facilities and an area for a small office where the staff can perform daily management work.

FOOD
Hooligans menu is designed to cater people of all ages at all hours of the day. The breakfast items have been included since games sometimes take place late at night and last till morning. All the food items are easy to pick up and eat while watching television. All this served with no compromise on quality, freshness and Taste.

SWOT Analysis
STRENGTHS
The creation of a unique and innovative fine dining atmosphere will differentiate us from the competition. The restaurant will stand out from the other restaurants in the area because of the unique theme, design and decor. It will offer a fine dining experience in a cozy atmosphere. Product quality. Not just great food but great service and atmosphere. The menu will appeal to a wide and varied audience. Controlling costs and prices at all times without exception. Other activities to engage the customer by offering an experience that endows much more than just food.

Strong family support to help in difficult times, if needed. No previous experience in restaurant business and related operations. Increasing trend of eating out has become a popular culture. A nearly insatiable demand for convenience will continue to drive restaurant sales. No direct competition in terms of Idea. A large number of competitors in chosen area which serve almost the same kind of food that we do. High food inflation, high oil prices, energy and food shortages, and high interest rates also pose a threat to our business. The high costs associated with maintenance and obsolescence of technology will be a problem. Political environment and circumstances of Karachi.

Entry of Competitors
Profitable markets that yield high returns will attract new firms. This results in many new entrants, which eventually will decrease profitability for all firms in the industry. This entry can be blocked by making constant the perfect competition. Until now Hooligans run in perfect competition based on a theme based restaurant in Pakistan. A strategy of entry deterring price will be maintained to create the barrier for the new entrants. More over Hooligans has patent their name so that none of the other business can steal our idea.

Threat of substitutes
Induce your competitors not to invest in those products, markets and services where you expect to invest the most that is the fundamental rule of strategy. - Bruce Henderson

Bargaining power of buyers

Customers compete for the low prices. We are the monopolist, and we will try our best to make our customers satisfied with us. We will show responsiveness and will move according to our customer choices.

But in terms of food and quality many competitors like Arizona Grill, MC Donalds, Village, and Evolution etc are present in the same areas. To compete with them we use our competitive advantage that is, the creation of a unique and innovative fine dining atmosphere with unique theme, design and dcor, food quality and fast service.
