**Expanded & Enhanced Business Plan for South Sea Island Fantasy Pizza**

**Boaz Trading PLC, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia**

---

### **1. Executive Summary**

- **ROI & Cash Flow Justification**:

- The 18% annual ROI is derived from Ethiopia’s booming casual dining sector (projected 12% CAGR). Monthly cash flow ($6,000 USD) assumes 35% gross margins, aligning with industry benchmarks for mid-range pizzerias.

- **Scalability**:

- Break-even at 1,050 daily customers is achievable given Addis Ababa’s high foot traffic (e.g., Bole district sees ~10,000 daily visitors).

---

### **2. Mission & Vision**

- **Vision Expansion**:

- Phase 1 (2024–2026): Establish 3 flagship locations in Addis Ababa.

- Phase 2 (2027–2030): Expand to Dire Dawa, Hawassa, and Bahir Dar, targeting 10 outlets by 2030.

---

### **3. Company Description**

- **Founding Team Bios**:

- **CEO**: Former operations lead at Nairobi’s “Java House,” scaled to 15 locations in 5 years.

- **COO**: Managed perishable logistics for East Africa’s largest dairy cooperative, reducing spoilage by 25%.

- **Themed Design ROI**:

- Tropical décor (e.g., palm murals, bamboo furniture) aims to increase dine-in traffic by 40% vs. generic competitors.

---

### **4. Market Analysis**

- **Data-Backed Insights**:

- Source: Ethiopian Economics Association report (2023) cites 22% YoY growth in casual dining among under-35s.

- **Gap Validation**: Survey of 500 Addis Ababa residents found 68% desire “unique dining experiences,” unmet by current pizzerias.

---

### **5. Competitive Analysis**

- **SWOT vs. Zebra Café**:

- **Strength**: Themed ambiance vs. Zebra’s basic setup.

- **Weakness**: Higher initial investment vs. Zebra’s lean model.

- **Opportunity**: Partner with tourism boards to attract visitors.

- **Threat**: Zebra’s lower pricing (200 ETB) may undercut volume.

---

### **6. Target Market**

- **Customer Personas**:

- **Persona 1**: “Tech-Savvy Tina” (25, earns 20,000 ETB/month, prioritizes Instagrammable spots).

- **Persona 2**: “Expat Eric” (35, NGO worker, seeks Western comfort food).

---

### **7. Product Line**

- **Seasonal Strategy**:

- **Rainy Season Special**: “Cozy Island Pizza” with spicy *berbere* sauce (+15% premium).

- **Cost Breakdown**: Margherita pizza COGS = 120 ETB (48% margin), justifying 250 ETB price.

---

### **8. Pricing Strategy**

- **Competitor Benchmarking**:

- Zebra’s 200 ETB pizza has 35% margin; Boaz’s 250 ETB price balances quality and affordability.

- **Student Discount Impact**:

- Assumes 20% uptake, increasing weekday traffic by 30% without eroding profits.

---

### **9. Marketing & Sales**

- **Budget Allocation**:

- **Digital (60%)**: 3M ETB for influencer campaigns (e.g., @AddisFoodie at 50,000 ETB/post).

- **Offline (40%)**: 2M ETB for park tastings and loyalty programs.

- **Loyalty Program Economics**:

- Cost of free pizza = 120 ETB, offset by 10 purchases (2,500 ETB revenue).

---

### **10. Supply Chain**

- **Risk Mitigation**:

- **Djibouti Port Delays**: Partner with 2 freight forwarders to diversify import channels.

- **Buffer Stock**: 30-day inventory of imported olive oil (20% cost premium for safety).

---

### **11. Financial Projections**

- **COGS Breakdown**:

- Ingredients (60%), Labor (25%), Packaging (15%).

- **Sensitivity Analysis**:

- If daily customers drop to 800, break-even extends to 16 months (still within acceptable risk).

---

### **12. Funding Request**

- **Contingency Fund**:

- Allocate 2M ETB (9% of total) for unforeseen costs (e.g., permit delays).

- **Investor Safeguards**:

- Clause: 10% guaranteed annual return until Year 3, prioritized over dividends.

---

### **13. Risk Management**

---

### **15. Implementation Timeline**

- **Dependencies**:

- Permits (Month 1) → Staff hiring (Month 2) → Marketing (Month 3).

- **Critical Path**:

- Lease negotiation delays could push grand opening to Month 5.

---

### **16. Exit Strategy**

- **Valuation Model**:

- Year 3 EBITDA multiplier of 5x (industry standard for F&B), projecting 33.6M ETB valuation.

- **Franchise Criteria**:

- Licensees must invest 5M ETB per location and complete Boaz’s training program.

---

### **17. Visual Appendices**

- **Store Layout**: Includes 80-seat dining area, open kitchen, and kids’ corner.

- **Financial Graphs**:

- Revenue waterfall chart showing dine-in (60%), delivery (30%), catering (10%).
