INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
I.1. GENERAL FACTS REGARDING THE MARKET Despite the strong growth in the Romanian economy that peaked in 2007, Fast food sector is seen as a beneficiary of the negative effects of the recession compared to other consumer foodservice categories. In fact, one of the most important effects of the recession in 2010 was the loss of purchasing power. On the same time, the establishment of shopping malls and hypermarkets led to a major change of Romanian purchasing habits and lifestyles. I.2. DEMAND AND SUPPLY A report published by Visionwise Consulting in February 2010 shows that out of 100 people, 36 went to a restaurant in the last four weeks while the number of those that went to a fast-food is reported to be 30. The detailed results of the interview run by the before mentioned company are available in the nearby graph. According to the same report, children and young people are a more likely client for a fast food than adults and elderly people. Moreover, according to the Out of Home Consumption Habits Report published by Unilever Food Solutions in 2011, men are a more likely client for a fast food, as statistics show that 66% of them eat at a fast food at least 2-3 times per week, while the percentage of women reporting the same thing is just 34 percent.
I.3. PROSPECTS As we mentioned, the presence of large chains led to important changes in lifestyle and are forecast to have the strongest impact on fast food. Taking into account the busy life in Bucharest and other large cities with strong economic activity we are expected to sustain the good growth of fast food over the forecast period. Concerning the impact of the independent outlets, which are predicted to comprise the majority, there will be affected by the slow economic recovery but given the fact that they generally target lower-income consumers the impact will be reduced, although it will not encourage a significant opening of new outlets. Moreover, according to the same report published by the Euromonitor International, the winners of the crisis will be the Chains because they rely on strong brand recognition and Romanians with lower incomes will increase the frequency of patronising the chains at the expense of full-service restaurants due to the perception of fast food as providing cheaper leisure and entertainment after shopping or during weekends.

FINANCIAL FORECAST – GROWTH PLAN
The financials below are based on a set of conservative assumptions.
Sales will start from 200 sandwiches / day in the first month and stabilize at 1,000 sandwiches / day in the eleventh month of operation. We assumed a split 75/25 of simple versus double sandwiches.

Prices for simple and double sandwiches are 7, respectively 15 Ron (VAT included). On the workmanship side we took a conservative approach as well. A Sandwich Artist and a Shift Manager are supposed to prepare between 100 and 250 sandwiches / hour and we based our calculations on the lowest figure. We considered an average workload / shift of 25% in the morning shift, 35% in the mid-day shift and 10% for the night shift. Workload is calculated as follows: number of sandwiches prepared / ((100 sandwiches / hour) * (8 hours)). Under these workload assumptions the personnel budgeted should be able to deliver 80% and more than the number of sandwiches bought. The personnel will evolve as follows:
Sanwich Artists / Shift 1 Sanwich Artists / Shift 2 Sanwich Artists / Shift 3 Shift Manager / Shift 1 Shift Manager / Shift 2 Shift Manager / Shift 3 Restaurant Manager
