Restaurant Industry Overview in Bangladesh In the midst of nine segments in the service sector of our country, hotel and restaurant is playing a predominant role. Bangladesh is a densely populated country. So the emergence of hotel and restaurant business knows no bounds. We will analyze the restaurant industry under the following domain. This is: Involvement in nominal GDP (in billion tk) In the following table the nominal GDP (in million tk) of Hotel and Restaurant industry is shown from FY01-FY04: Nominal GDP (in billion tk) Industry Hotel and Restaurant

FY01 15.9

FY02 17.4

FY03 19.4

FY04 22

This information also illustrates that the contribution of the restaurant industry is pacing up gradually in the Nominal GDP of Bangladesh. Even though the inflation slows down the contribution, still this sector is a matter of sanguine to the potential investors.

Industry demand At present there are more or less 5000 hotels and restaurants in our country from small to large scale. But very few of these maintain the expected level of hygiene and environmental climate for the holding customers’ attraction. Now we estimate the demand of this industry from the viewpoint of our selected location. As the restaurant will be situated in an aristocratic area like Gulshan, we hope to capture the surrounding 40,000-50,000 customers. Moreover, demand for our restaurant will be affected by the present level and service of the restaurants in the locality. Nature of the Market Capture: The nature of the market capture would work as one of the key driver of demand for our restaurant. Here we will operate as market nicher. As the existing restaurants are providing Indian, Thai, Chinese cuisines, we expect to operate in a different arena. Our most impressive feature is organic food stuffs. Here organic denotes natural or devoid of any fertilizer, insecticides etc.

Market Survey A survey on 76 consumers in Gulshan area reveals that 70 of the consumers have given their favorable opinion in the establishment of organic food restaurant.

Future outlook and trends Due to the emerging nature of our economy, the restaurant industry would flourish in Bangladesh in long-term future. This will lead to more investment in this industry in the form of companies that will assist boosting up of our financial market. Another distinguished feature in the industry is the increase in education on Hotel management and Hospitality management. Many private universities and institutions are providing graduate and post-


graduate degrees on these braches of knowledge. So, there is a promising opportunity for the restaurant business in near future. At present some restaurants are offering some distinguished features to attract the attention of the potential customers. So still there remains chance to expand the business thoughts and ideas. These may be introducing segments for couples, for elderly people, health conscious persons to a great extent. According to the theory of Economics, people spending increase with the increase in income. As our target consumers are an upper-class urban citizens, their preference must be on luxury as well as in hygiene.

Analysis of competitors There are at least 20-30 restaurants in Gulshan area at present. Out of these Asparagus, Aristocrat, Topkupy would be our prime competitors even though none of them provide pure natural or organic food stuffs. The services provided by these restaurants are quite satisfactory. But still we have to compete for capturing the market with our organic feature of food items.

Market Segmentation Our market has been segmented according to our specialized services. Our menu will attract the conscious citizens at large. Below are our targeted market segments. •

Age: Seniors, young married couples with children, aged persons specially health conscious people.

Gender: We will equally target both sexes with a slight skew for fatty females due to their heavy consumption of mixed vegetables.

Income: We will appeal to the high side of high income individuals and to all in the middle income bracket.

Occupation: We will target the white-collar worker, young professionals with a family.

Industry Forecast As our target customers will be offered with variety and health conscious services through our menu, we can expect that there will be growth in the demand for the cuisines. The following table shows the growth rate of customers in 2008 and 2009 respectively. Although we hope that the officials, couples and other visitors might not grow in 2009, families and foreigners will grow to a great extent.

Production of raw materials For basic raw materials for restaurant we will, we will establish our own firm. Other raw materials, which are not able to produce by ourselves, will be collected from local shop or will be exported. Here is a list of raw materials necessary for production and purchase of food items in our restaurant: Items Vegetables Chicken Beef Mutton Fish Egg Rice

Items Spices Sauce Soya-bin oil Ghee Shrimp Sea-food Tea

Items Mushroom Dals Mustard Cheese Potato Coffee Wheat

Our production of raw material will be completed in two ways: Production by self: Most of the basic raw materials, which can be produced in Bangladesh, will be produced in our own firm situated in Savar. We depend on our own firm, because by establishing our firm, the organic element of raw materials can be ensured strictly. We can monitor each and every step of production process. Description of the production unit:       

Location: Savar Total land area: 1.5 acre ( 6070 square Meter) Ownership pattern of the land: Own. Total area used for horticulture: 4400 square meter. Total land used for pond: 1500 square meter. Total area of the kitchen shed: 1600 square feet. Total area of the production building: 200 square feet.

There are five divisions within the production unit: • • • •

Vegetable and crop division Poultry division Dairy and Meat division Fish division

Production process


The total land area of the firm will be divided into two part-fisheries and horticulture and dairy. The poultry firm will be situated on floating firm above the pond. Total land area for horticulture will be further being divided into four parts. Three of them will be use for horticulture while other one will be used for dairy. After every three month the portion for dairy firm will be used for horticulture and dairy will be shifted to a new portion. This process will continue thought the year. Vegetables and crops division: We will produce rice, wheat, dals, mustard, mushrooms and all types of vegetables under this division. Our own tractor is used for cultivating the land. At a time, 3300 square meter of the total land area of 4400 square meter will be used for cultivation while other 1100 square meter will be used for graving cows and goats. The wastage produced by cows and goats are only fertilizer used in our land. For irrigating our land, we use our own shallow tube-well. Poultry division: Poultry and eggs will be produced under this division. We predict that in a year we will need 11000 boiler chicken and 500 layer chicken. In every month we will need 900 chickens. It takes 1 month to grow a boiler chicken. At a time our poultry firm will contain 1000 boiler chicken and 500 layer chicken. The price per baby chicken is 6 tk and food cost per chicken in its life time will be 50 tk. Dairy and meat division: Dairy and meat division will supply us milk, butter, ghee, butter-oil and meat. Our firm will have 4 dairy cows for producing milk. We predict that in a year we will need meat of 20 cows. As these cows will solely be used for producing meat, we will need to purchase 20 cows at every year. Our firm also contains 20 goats for each year. Fisheries unit: We will have a pond of 1500 square meter for producing fish. All types of fresh-water fish will be produced in our firm. The wastage produced by the poultry unit is the main feed of the fish. If necessary, additional food will be given, but this food will be fully natural. No hormone tablet or any type of fertilizer will be given to the fishes.

Ensuring the Organic Elements For vegetable Unit: For producing vegetables, we use only compost. The cow dung of the dairy and meat firm is the only fertilizer we use for our vegetables. We used no chemical fertilizer or even insecticides. Thus, the vegetable we produce in our land is fully organic. Dairy and meat: For feeding the cows and goats, we only rely on grass and other natural food such as straw, chuff etc. For processing the milk, we use traditional method, the method of boiling the milk, rather than pasteurizing which is not organic. For processing the meat, we do not use any preservative; rather we just collect the meat and freeze it.


Poultry: The process of producing organic poultry is somewhat difficult. We have to give vaccine to the chickens and it is supported by the World Organic Food Society situated in Germany. For feeding the chicken, we use only natural food. Also for processing chicken we do not use any preservative. We also do not use any preservative or chemical for eggs. Thus, we can ensure that the chicken and eggs are fully organic. Fish: As the poultry is situated above the pond, so, we use the wastages of the poultry as the feed for fish. No other kinds of feed are used for fish. If necessary then only natural feed are used. We do not use any insecticides, vaccination (hormone capsule) or fertilizer.

Suppliers of Raw Materials As we won’t produce all the raw materials for the production, we need to purchase some of these from suppliers. We would order these from local suppliers like the Organic in Mina Bazar from which we can purchase some spices, tea and some other raw materials. Being ensured by the organic nature of raw materials, we would also buy some from other suppliers.

Production of food-items The production of food items will be handled by an executive chef under the catering manager. Under the executive chef 3 assistant chefs would perform and they will be supported by other 12 kitchen stuffs in the preparation of food stuffs. We produce the food items by incorporating some processes which would involve the use of sophisticated kitchen equipments imported from different countries. Moreover, we are quite confident that the organic food production will be ensured in all the preparation process maintaining the guideline of our executive chef who is much expert in this respect. Moreover, some international standards will be maintained in this regard.

Our main focus in marketing will be to increase customer awareness in the target market. We will direct all of our tactics and programs toward the goal of our explaining of whom we are and what we are all about. We have no plan to join in the coupon/discounting wars that other have embarked. We will price our products fairly, keep our standards high, and execute the concept so that word of mouth will be our main marketing force.

Target Market The production of organic food is costlier than producing it in inorganic way. That’s why; the food served in our restaurant will be a little costlier than any other restaurant. Because of this reason our target customer will be persons willing to pay a little higher money for a good appetite which will also give them the feeling that their money is returning to them. Conscious person: Persons, who are conscious about their health and also what food they are taking, will be our target customers, because our restaurant will serve foods which will be mainly produced in our firm. Other food items and spices will be collected from such sources that the food served before the guests will be fully organic. Families: Now days in our country, the awareness for healthy food and healthy environment of restaurants have been increased. That’s why; the families want to go to restaurant where the food will be hygienic. So they will be our target customers we believe that our restaurant will be able to cater their needs properly. Officials: That is the last customer pool who in offices and they need to take their food outside. It is not that much healthy for them. So if we can serve food which can fulfill their needs and even match their price range and satisfaction level, then they will come to our restaurant. Foreign Visitors: A large portion of our target customer will be foreign visitors. The foreigners are generally more health conscious and they prefer taking organic food. But in our country they don’t get restaurants or even markets where they can get organic food or food items. So if they get restaurant in our country serving organic food they will definitely come as our guests.


Foreigners View point In the midst of 76 respondents, 14 were foreigners. Now we analyze their responses in the following ways: •

The most important observation among the foreigners is that 11 of their monthly income are over tk 25000 of which 6 persons earn over tk. 100,000 monthly. So, it s very important to develop our organizational strategy keeping this under consideration.

Again we have found that 11 of the foreigners visit restaurants daily and weekly. This shows the high frequency of their visit for which we have to develop our menu accordingly.

Another significant observation is that 7 of them spend more than tk 1000 and some other spends more than tk 1000 per person. This spending structure should also be dealt with proper care so that we can establish a long term relationship with them and increase our revenue as well.

As all of the foreigners visit restaurants from their previous experience and hearing from others , our advertising should attract the local people and our service should be provided with trained employees so that they can gather a pleasing experience.

Furthermore, none of the foreigners consider any other preference in food items expect food quality. 10 of them give preference for quality control initiatives and 11 of them emphasize the production of raw materials for food items. So we should make sufficient arrangements for interior decoration and maintain hygiene in the production process.

11 of the foreigners are in favor of organic food restauran t and they are also willing to pay higher for the quality cuisine. So, we have sufficient endeavor for the initialization of the business.

Pricing Strategy In pricing the products of our restaurant we are going to use Premium Pricing Strategy. This strategy is used to produce high quality product and charge the highest price. As the production procedure of organic food is costly, the higher price charged in the restaurant will be reasonable and the higher value paid by the consumers will get back to them as we are going to serve them with quality foods that are promised by us.

In our survey we have found that out of 76 respondents 70 of them are in favor of organic food restauran t and they are also willing to pay higher for Plan the quality Advertising and Promotional cuisine. So, we have sufficient endeavor for the initialization of the business.


The advertising procedure of the restaurant will be comprised of 1. Setting advertising objectives 2. Setting the advertising budget 3. Developing the advertising strategy 4. Evaluating the advertising campaigns Setting advertising objectives The first step is to set the advertising objective. An advertising objective is a specific communication task to be accomplished with a specific target audience during a specific period of time. Our advertising objective will be firstly to inform the consumers and after a certain period of time it will be reminding. Now the rationales behind the objectives are: •

As we are introducing a new line of food in the market, our advertising will be informative. The primary objective is to build public demand.

We will also do persuasive advertising by saying that we are serving the best quality food.

Reminder advertising is important for mature products-it keeps consumers thinking about the product. As we are going to run a restaurant it will be very important for us to remind the consumers that we are there to serve them with quality food which will value their money.

Setting the advertising budget As we are starting a totally new venture, we have to set an advertising budget that is large in size. Because we have to build awareness and gain consumer trial, the market share also impacts the advertising budget as we have to build a market for our product and also take share from the competitors. Developing advertising strategy Advertising strategy consists of two major elements 

Creating advertising message and Selecting advertising media.

For the advertising of the restaurant we are going to use billboards, banners and poly sign as the media. We will hire a billboard at Gulshan-2 circle. This billboard will hold the main reason for opening the restaurant; that is the organic food will value the money of the guests as well as give them a good appetite. This is also the advertising message. The banners will be used in all the main roads of Gulshan-1, Gulshan-2 and Banani. We will use the banners specially in front of all the embassies, high commissions, multinational corporations, NGOs, and in other main office areas. The poly sign will be used in front of our restaurant.

Evaluating advertising campaign We have to evaluate both the communication effects and the sales effects of advertising regularly. Sales effects are also affected by many other factors like product features, price, satisfaction etc. But


the communication effects solely depend on the advertising. After opening the restaurant the number of guests coming each day and the frequency of the guests’ visit will give evidence of effective communication. The organizational plan of the restaurant deals with the form of ownership, lines of authority and responsibility of members for the well-functioning of the restaurant. Now we go into the detail of the organizational plan of our restaurant:

Form of ownership This restaurant is a partnership firm. As all the members are capable of providing some capital and management resources or expertise, this business has been a partnership firm to earn substantial profit acknowledging unlimited liability.

Identification of Partners Name of partners : Managing partners • Nazmul Ahsan • Afra Ilham • Afsana Rahman • Afsana Islam • Rayhan Mahmood Investor partner: • Gazi Zahidul Islam Terms of agreement of the partnership: •

Profit of the restaurant will be shared equally regardless of the discrepancies in the capital generation.

All the partners are liable for activities of any of the partners while representing in the business arena.

Partners providing loans would realize 14% interest per annum for the loan provided.

All the partners would accrue monthly salaries for their contribution in management.

Nazmul Ahsan would act as the agent on behalf of the firm who has check-signing authority approved by other partners.

Organizational Structure


At the initial stage, the restaurant would follow downward moving hierarchical structure. So, the instructions would accrue from the upper level to the lower level employees. Currently, the managing positions will be held under each of the partners but it will be extended in future. These possible positions might be marketing director, purchasing agent, controller, director of human resources, director of training, director of research and development and administrative assistants.

Management team In order to lessen the excessive overhead expenses and earn a higher return, the management team of the restaurant would be simply consisted of the founder partners. As it is small in nature, the organizational structure is also simple as described earlier. This management team is responsible for all major decisions in addition to monitoring all other business activities.

Responsibilities of the management team The general manager would be the most proficient among the partners who possess the overall knowledge on this industry and can adopt flexibility with a sudden change in consumer behavior, market condition or socio-economic condition of the country. The manager in purchase and production would perform all the purchasing functions for production of raw materials as well as food stuffs for the restaurant. Thus, he would manage the firms for vegetables, poultry and fisheries. In this case, his responsibility would be to choose the cost effective source for purchasing or manufacturing functions. Moreover, the purchasing agents and store staffs would work under his control in future emerging business environment. The manager in Accounts would compile all the sources of revenues and expenditures to bring out the profitability and sustainability of the restaurant. Although finance is done by this manager, we hope that in future Finance manager would also evolve as the business flourish. Under the Catering manager there would be an executive chef who would formulate the cooking mechanism of food stuffs. He would be assisted by some other assistant chefs and finally the waiters would serve the organic foods according to the order placed. Then, the manager maintenance would perform the supervision of the maintenance of the restaurant. Under him, there would be some cleaners, bill-collector and security guards. This manager is also responsible for dealing with any client regarding the arrangement of parties by the restaurant.

Strengths 1. Fresh market The market of organic food is fresh in our country. We launch our product in a market in which there is no direct competitor. People who prefer organic food will be a large portion of our potential customer. 2. Fully New idea The most important strength of our venture is- the concept of organic food restaurant is fresh and new for our country. There is no such restaurant is present in Bangladesh now. Thus our venture will get an extra attention to the customer. 3. No dependence on raw materials We do not depend on external sources for our basic raw materials (such as chicken, fish, egg, milk, meat, vegetables etc). Rather we produce these products in our own firm. This will ensure continuous supply of raw materials at a lower cost. 4. Organic elements are ensured If we purchase our basic raw materials from outside suppliers, we can not ensure our customer that the food stuffs we supply are fully organic. As we produce the raw materials in our own firm and we ourselves monitor each and every steps of the production process, we can ensure our customer that our products are fully organic.


5. Customer satisfaction As we can ensure the organic element in our food items, this will satisfy our customer to seek for organic food and helps us to retain old customers and create new customers. 6. Strong staff resources Our five entrepreneurs are directly engaged in the management of the business. This will ensure the proper monitoring of the business. Also at every stage of production and operation we employed sufficient staffs and workers. 7. Modification of menu Our menu is not fixed. We will change our menu and add new items in our menu to attract new customers and to give customers a good experience in dining. 8. Own transport We use our own 1.5 ton truck to carry raw materials from our firm to our restaurant. Thus we need not rely on outside transport and our transportation cost will be substantially low. 9. Advertising Not all restaurants in our country advertise. But we know the strength of advertisement and we go for it. Our billboard will definitely inform the potential customer that a new way of restaurant is being opened for their experience. Poly signs and banners are also helpful in promoting our advertising process. 10. Secured source of capital Our restaurant has raised its capital from internally generated funds mainly. Some portion would be provided by an investor in the venture. So, the sources of capital are quite secured. 11. Modern technology We have adopted some modern technologies keeping facilities online contracts with the customers. Moreover, we welcome the guests to use their credit cards or debit cards in the payment of the bill. 12. Attractive interior Our restaurant would provide some attractive interior arrangements with soothing environment which will be enlightened and dirt free enough to please our guests. Moreover, our rhythmic sound system would pace up the entertainment at a large scale. 13. Proper management Five of our entrepreneurs are directly engaged in management. They will work with their best effort and this will ensure a proper management system. 14. Proper planned organizational structure Our organizational structure is very simple. Senior management is under the supervision of the partners which would ensure the proper planning and implementation of the decisions.

Weaknesses: 1. Very unfamiliar concept


As the concept of organic food is not so familiar with our present customers, some customers may not be interested with the idea or they may not belief the credibility of the food items to be organic fully. 2. Cost-sensitive project Since the production of raw materials is somewhat costlier than producing other ingredients for this line of business, offering organic food is really a cost-sensitive project. 3. Small dimension of the restaurant The dimension of the restaurant is not too large to accommodate more than 100 visitors at a time. Moreover, some other restaurants are offering more spacious arrangement for serving the cuisines. 3. Amateur senior management The senior management of our restaurant is quite amateur because they don’t have any prior realistic experience of maintaining and controlling the operations of business. Thus, this may appear as a weakness for the well-functioning of the restaurant. 4. Absence of occasional discount Even though we are opening a new arena of restaurant business in Bangladesh, we won’t provide any occasional discount system on food stuffs whereas other competitors would provide these opportunities to the potential customers. Our conception is that such discount might reflect a negative attitude on the customers regarding the quality of our cuisines.

Opportunities: Opportunities arise from the circumstances of external environment. As the entrepreneurs we expect the following opportunities that our venture can confront in future: 1. Taking over of competing firms Since our operation would attract the potential flavor of customers and the number of circumspect consumers might increase keeping the consideration of quality and hygiene of the food stuffs, we hope to take over other competing firms in future; which is an imperative opportunity of our restaurant business. 2. Impressive relationship with suppliers As some of our raw materials for the preparation of food items would be collected from the suppliers, we hope to maintain an effective relationship with them. This would ensure the quality materials. 3. Cutting costs In order to ensure organic nature of our food items, we won’t use any insecticide or chemical fertilizer in our production unit lands. Our own generated manure from dairy and poultry would be used in those lands. So, this will cut our cost to some extent.

Threats


Sometimes the opportunities may not appear with regard to the expectation. So, some threats might affect the venture at large. Our restaurant business might face the following threats: 1. Competitors’ change in action: In quest of tackling our business strategy, the competitors might change their course of action. For example, they can also open this organic branch of operation that might lead our market capture. Again, they can also introduce new diversified mechanisms. 2. Change in consumer taste: Since the consumers always transform their taste or preference in any commodity, we might face a lower consumer demand under that situation. The rationale behind this is the over abundance of restaurants in the organic line of food ventures.

Important Assumptions Sales: ‘Natur Livet’ is going to launch production in January, 2007. Our sales are expected to grow at 10.92% and 6.93% in year 2008 and 2009 respectively. Cost of raw materials: Cost of raw materials is determined by taking the total cost of production unit and cost for suppliers. Cost of goods sold: Cost of goods sold is calculated by taking into account the ending and beginning raw materials. We will keep 20% of the total raw materials as inventory for a every year. Accounts payable: Of the total cost for suppliers, 20% is reported as accounts payable throughout the years. Cost Determination: Fixed cost includes salaries, depreciation, insurance cost, rent, utilities. Fixed costs are fixed in all the years. Variable cost includes all other cost except fixed cost. Variable cost will increase at a rate of 10% than the preceding year. Retained Earnings: In year 2007, we are retaining 60% of the net income while in year 2008 and 2009 we are retaining 40% of the net income respectively.

Social Cost-benefit Analysis is also called economic analysis of a project developed for evaluating investment projects from the point of view of the society. Most often it is done for public investments. But in the recent times this analysis is also encouraged for private investment so that the economic feasibility study of the project can be done. ‘‘Natur Livet’ ’ is a service oriented organization with some manufacturing process involved set up as an organic food restaurant. So, undoubtedly this will involve both inputs and outputs gained and lost by the society. Net benefit of the restaurant = Value of output in terms of shadow price- value of inputs in terms of shadow price = Social benefit – social cost

Concept of shadow pricing Shadow pricing represents the market prices of inputs and outputs only under conditions of perfect markets which are hardly fulfilled in developing countries. In case of food stuffs and raw materials the market demand price is the shadow price for these outputs because these are non-tradable and at the same time they increase the consumption of the outputs.


In case of inputs the shadow price is the cost of capital inputs. Some of these inputs are tradable and some other non-tradable. The cost of labor inputs, increased productivity of the employees and valued supply of cuisines is really tricky for the time being. So we are ignoring the shadow pricing effect in this segment.

Social benefit of ‘Natur Livet’: The social benefits can be categorized in the following segments: • Profit generation: This is a social benefit too as it increases the gross national income of the country by contributing to the service sector. As a result the economic growth of the nation is somewhat attributable to the contribution of our business venture. • Increased productivity of the employees: Our restaurant business would provide an opportunity to the employees to gain experience while operating in the venture. Moreover, we would provide some training to the employees. So, this will lead to increased efficiency of the employees; increase the productivity of the venture which will benefit both the individual employees and the society as well. • Food value and entertainment: As the main motto of our restaurant business is to provide quality foods that are organic in nature. So, this will facilitate the consumers’ food value maintaining the hygiene factors. Thus, our guests will be benefited by preserving sound health having a good palate. Our enlightened environment will also keep them mentally fresh and enthusiastic. As a result, they will have enough rationale to perform their services properly which will benefit the society to a great extent.

Social costs of ‘Natur Livet’ • Cost of capital inputs The cost of capital inputs represents the cost of physical assets and other long term assets of the restaurant. Some of these assets are acquired through import. So these are tradable but it is really difficult to trace the border price or CIF (cost, insurance & freight) price of these inputs as we have assumed the total amount of the capital inputs altogether. Again the opportunity cost of capital input is another huge cost to the society. The opportunity cost is the earnings that could have been generated from those investments. • Cost of labor input The cost of labor input is another social cost for our restaurant because these labors could have been used for other purposes. Thus, the marginal product of the labor is reduced and the society is deprived of those outputs.
