If you're writing a business plan for campus culinary restaurant or a similar form of establishment, it's important to begin by carefully considering the market you're going to enter. College campuses can be a remarkably profitable population base for any business, especially companies that offer food and drinks. A culinary restaurant specializing in high-dollar meals and items, on the other hand, can face an uphill battle based on the average income and net worth of college students. That doesn't mean that it's not possible to succeed with this sort of business in a college town; it just means you'll need to spend more time in your business plan articulating the potential for your business in the area. Specifically, be sure to include the following information:
• The size of the local market you'll be service
• The average amount of money spent by local consumers on food away from home in recent years
• The number of local restaurants and how they've performed in recent years
• A list of your business' relative advantages
• A thorough description of your business' services and setting
