We plan to buy controlling stakes in this company: Space and Set up Full range of required machinery Knowledgeable Staff including a strong Business Development Personnel
% Equity Allocation	20%
Expected ROI	15% – 25%
Risks and Mitigation	Unknown brand because the current has not invested in brand building and marketing. We will mitigate this by rebranding the brand and having a strong marketing strategy in place. No Online Presence- once we acquire the business we plan on hosting a complete e-commerce website where patrons can place orders and buy our products. The website is being designed by a well established company in the USA Purchasing Cost Controls – FANA will seek the best pricing and quality for all containers ingredients. Market price fluctuations will guide purchasing to ensure the company meets and exceeds profit expectations. As ingredients will be sourced from around the world, we want to ensure the best possible price. Equipment Costs – FANA requires comparatively fewer items of equipment to run an efficient operation, resulting in lower startup costs. This will in turn result in lower ongoing maintenance costs. Staff Turnover / Training Costs – Lower than normal staff turnover due to sound management philosophy and a rewarding working environment will help FANA reduce training costs and enhance employee satisfaction. Reduced staff turnover should result in fewer errors and minimum product waste while improving patron satisfaction and repeat business. Labor Costs – FANA will closely monitor labor costs to ensure that staff levels are matched with the busier and slower times of the year. As mentioned, holiday seasons will require greater staff levels regarding the carts and pop-up stores. The manufacturing facility may require additional staff when there are spikes in orders.
Exit Strategies	We will pursue several possible exit strategies: 1. Franchising and IPO: Expand the model of our flagship store into a successful franchise with stores worldwide. Go public, starting an IPO and generating cash to grow the company worldwide. 2. Stay Private: FANA could continue to operate as a profitable private entity, distributing dividends to shareholders or buying them out until liquidity opportunities become available. 3. Be Acquired: The gelato and sorbet industry is highly-fragmented and could witness consolidation in several years. Larger food companies seeking a presence in Southeast Asia could acquire FANA to expand their brand.

Drinco drive thru beverages store

Project Title	A modern drive thru beverages store with the potential to expand into a full fledged convenience store in which consumers can use an app to order and pay online beforehand.
Current Status	Concept / Business Plan
Amount Invested	0
Funding Required	RM1,000,001 to RM2,000,000
Description	Drinco is a modern 24 hour drive thru convenience store that specializes in selling all kind of beverages to consumers. Our consumer’s ranges from road users stuck in traffic, late night travellers and people who prefer to get their drinks on the go without having the need to get down of their vehicle. Just think of us as a modern 7/11 concept convenience shop with an addition of drive thru services. Drinco will adapt technology in its business model as it will allow consumers to order their drinks online before even reaching the store. With the existence of an online app, Drinco aims to cut down waiting time for consumers in drive thru lanes. This will allow Drinco to develop an edge in providing a quick and efficient service. Our vision moving forward will be to introduce new products other than beverages and services such as mobile top-ups which are essential to consumer daily needs. In addition, Drinco aims to expand by establishing at least one store located strategically in every state in Malaysia and introducing delivery services. In 5 years, Drinco sustainability will be enhanced by moving into the global market. The key to our success will be marketing strategy where we hope to develop Drinco as a cool brand among Malaysian consumers. In conclusion, Drinco aims to be a disrupter in the convenience store industry by using technology in majority of its operations.
Business Opportunity	Drinco solves the problem faced by modern convenience stores where it hopes to reach wider range of consumers by providing an online platform. This platform will allow consumers to order their beverages online before reaching the store thus making it an easier and quick shopping experience for consumers. In addition, Drinco will also introduce drive thru services for consumers who look to buy their beverages on the go without the need to get down of their vehicles. Consumers which are targeted in this segment are road users, those who are stuck in heavy traffic, athletes who are on road after their training are in need of drinks to satisfy their thirst, and also for those who just want to get quick drinks for late night parties. Drinco provides a simple idea to solve the issues faced by millions in the country and is line with the modern technological world. Its competitive edge lies on the fact that Drinco will be the first convenience shop to offer drive thru services to its consumers and Drinco aims to achieve market share by locating in busy roads with heavy traffic and in major highways in the country. The number of convenience store in Malaysia is growing at a CAGR of 2.5% during 2014-2020. The retail industry of Malaysia is expected to grow as the players are introducing the retail commerce service, which leads the modern grocery. Further, the share of convenience store sales in total retail sales has also been incorporated for the country. The problem with these convenience stores is that they are not that convenient anymore in this modern society and tech driven world. Consumers would still need to get down of their vehicles and get into a brick and mortar store. This is where Drinco comes in and solve the problem by providing an online platform and drive thru services for consumers. The targeted market for Drinco is as follow: 1) Workers stuck in traffic after work 2) Athletes who would want to buy some drinks after training or to training 3) Casual road users on normal roads and highways looking for quick fix to satisfy their thirst 4) Ala carte fast food buyers. Limited choices of beverages in fast food outlets 5) People who would want to buy some quick drinks and snacks late night for parties or outings 6) Coffee drinkers in the morning As can be seen above, the targeted market consist of many potential consumers for Drinco. These consumers can be sustained as Drinco loyal customers with the introduction of point rewards system in the app or introduction of member cards which in return can be used as debit cards for many purposes. The potential of the market is huge in this untapped industry and Drinco aims to be a disrupter in the convenience store section and have a first mover advantage in this industry.
Revenue / Business Model	xxx
Management Team	xxx
Company Background	This is just a business idea/concept at the moment. I have approached an IT company to develop the web and app as well as the drive thru technology. But i can’t proceed with them as i do not have the required capital to start off the business. A suitable investment would be needed to kick start the business.
Funding Milestone	xxx
% Equity Allocation	15%
Expected ROI	With the 15% equity allocation, investors will earn back their initial investment by the end of year 3 and then gain profit for the following years.
Risks and Mitigation	The convenience store industry is competitive in Malaysia. 7-11 leads the way in terms of market share and it’s followed by the likes of 99Mart and other small players in the industry. But Drinco is different in many reasons because it is a niche technology driven convenience store unlike many in the market. It will be a unique new in nature convenience store which will be face by many similar competitors in future following the same idea. Hence, Drinco is adamant to constantly develop its strategies and utmost importance will be given to business development to ensure it leads the industry. In terms of competitive landscape, Kuala Lumpur is filled with convenience store but none of them are on the go. Drinco aims to establish a first drive thru beverage shop in Kuala Lumpur as the targeted market potential is huge in the area. In the end of year 2, Drinco will look to establish a store in Ipoh as the owner is from Ipoh and have knowledge of the local market potential. This will be followed by developments in other states in Malaysia. Drinco aims to be a leading drive thru convenience store player in the industry in 5 year time and expand internationally. The potential is huge in this market and Drinco will be the first to tap into it. Other risks may come in form of economic uncertainty.
Exit Strategies	I believe in sharing economy as it is the way to move forward. Investors can exit the business after 5 years by the time in which they will already have made up a considerable amount of profit from their initial investment or they can continue to be partner with us as long as the relationship is profitable and good for the business. But, if there is an unexpected situation in future in which the company decides to go fully private or public, investors will be given their fair share of equity amount they own in the company based on the company’s valuation upon their exit. Note that i expect the company’s valuation to be in the range of RM50-RM200 million by year 5 if growth strategy is followed thoroughly.

Company Background	Big Bowl Ramen was owned by Mr. Henry, serving food which focuses on local traditional tastes and flavors. One of the main attractions is the two person portion Big Bowl Ramen, which despite using Ramen, the taste has been adjusted to suit local taste. Located in Jalan Market (旧街场三奶巷), Big Bowl Ramen attracts visitors to Ipoh from all over Malaysia and also from Singapore. Since the food taste suits these visitors, this allows Big Bowl Ramen to develop a crowd of supporters. Big Bowl Ramen was bought over by Mr. Henry during August 2014, in Ipoh Town. During then, the existing restaurant was not doing well and received unfavorable reviews. Seeing the opportunity to improve the existing business with the aid of strategic location, Mr. Henry took the challenge to transform the existing business, which includes change of menu, alteration of taste to suit the locals and ensuring only high quality ingredients to preserve texture, taste, and hygiene. Mr. Henry also changed the management style to build up a culture of excellent customer service, each staffs took pride in serving customers well. From June 2015 onwards, Mr. Henry finally managed to revamp this restaurant, gaining consistent good reviews and attracting crowds of customers, several which frequented his restaurant several times. Mr. Henry managed to establish consistent positive profits started then until this day. Big Bowl Ramen caught attention as one of the viable franchise since through meeting with the owner, he is a humble person with a strong passion in restaurant business. He shared his management concept which focuses on making things simple, encouraging each employee to take ownership of their responsibilities and being rewarded for positive comments. After testing food from the menu and going through customers’ reviews, it is clear that despite being very business-minded, Mr. Henry took pride in serving generous portions to customers for very competitive price, without compromising the quality, taste, and atmosphere.

Risks and Mitigation	The Ramen business is indeed competitive, however, our unique selling point does not only depend on the Ramen, The big bowl Ramen is one of our attractions as it is priced lower than market average and the 4 types of flavors offered are based on local taste such as Laksa and other flavors, at the moment, this cannot be found in other Ramen restaurant. The new location is filled with Chinese students attending private college nearby, thus, I believe that based on the price positioning and target crowd, it is one of the best location for this type of food. Apart from the big bowl Ramen, there is the RM1.90 dish, which took similar positioning as the boat noodle. I am attracted to it since the portion is bigger than the typical boat noodle, and since ‘boat noodle’ concept became famous in 2014, up til today, people still queue up for it, thus, this is another market segment that we can capture. Regarding the sales performance of the current store, since 2015, the lowest sales per month is RM40,000 and the highest sales is RM80,000. I believe that it is repeatable since most of his crowds are local tourist from other states and also from Singapore. That current location in Ipoh is one of the tourist attraction and thus, is very seasonal, I have thus, tabulated the ROI based on the current worst case scenario to ensure chances of survival even if it only achieve that during certain months. However, I was estimating better sales from the new location InsyaAllah as based on my observation, apart from students, working adults did frequent the cafes there during peak hours.
Exit Strategies	In the event should this business not work out despite our careful planning and after contingency plans have been put into action, the following exit plan will be put into action. 1. Either all tangible assets owned by the business will be sold or the business will be sold based on the estimated market value. – Will be decided base on which option would fetch higher amount. 2. All remaining cash from the business account will be withdrawn. 3. Proceeds from step 1& 2 will be used for the following purposes, according to the order of decreasing priority as such, – Outstanding rental – Outstanding salary to be paid – Outstanding utility bills – Distribution to investors based on the percentage of their investments

Taiwan Fried Chicken Master Franchise seeking RM1mil expansion fund

Business overview

We are the master franchisor of xxx Fried Chicken in Malaysia. Currently we are have 5 outlets which is located at Sunway Putra, DAMEN USJ, Sunway Pyramid, Midvalley , Sunway Velocity Mall. Upcoming outlet we will have Genting Sky Avenue (tentatively open on March 2017).

And we operate our own central kitchen to do marinate process and supply to each outlet.

xxx was set up on year 2014, November. then we send 2 key person to Taiwan for training (3 months). After back from Taiwan, we set up our own central kitchen and start looking for lot to operate our 1^st store. Our 1^st store (Sunway Putra) open on November 2015.

Currently Mr xxx holding 50% share and Mr xxx holding 50% share.

I personally know this brand since year 2007 when I first visit to Taiwan. I personally love their fried chicken very much . on year 2013, I start contacting Taiwan HQ to inquiry about the possibility of bringing this brand to Malaysia. after having a almost 1 year discussion and market survey and study (Taiwan boss visit Malaysia several times), then we successfully gain the franchise rights from Taiwan principal.

Key Team member

Mr xxx – act as General manager. Overlooking operation, production (central kitchen), marketing

*** assist by personal assistant Ms xxx

Mr xxx – act as finance & account director. Overlooking account, finance.

*** assist by personal assistant Ms xxx

Mr xxx – act as area manager. Handling outlet operation.

Market overview

We are confident that our 44 years secret recipe fried chicken are well accept by majority of the population, no matter which age group, sex, races. Our selling price (RM9 per pack) are slightly higher compare with our competitor (SHILIN, Pasar malam brand), but it is still affordable by all income group .

Based on estimation, we are looking at the potential of having 50 – 100 outlets nationwide. FYI, SHIHLIN are operating around 70 outlets now in Malaysia.

Our central kitchen will have 10% Gross profit by supplying to each outlet.

Our outlet will have 60% Gross profit – 3% loyalty to Taiwan. Currently our outlet revenue are averagely RM40,000 per month.

Funding request

We are looking forward to open another 4 outlets in Year 2017 (to make it in total 10 outlet by end of year 2017). Each outlet will cost us around RM140,000 (renovation), RM50,000 (equipment), RM30,000 (rental deposit and etc), RM20,000 (cash for rolling) and 6000 USD franchise fee per outlet (based on the total amount / 20 stores).

So we are looking at around RM270,000 per outlet. X 4 outlets, approx RM 1 million.

Investment risk and mitigating measures.

When we first introduce our brand in Malaysia, we find it difficult to look for nice location in shopping malls due to our brand are still new and shopping mall leasing department are mostly skeptical on our brand. After having a few outlets , people start knowing our brand and Major shopping malls (example Midvalley) even welcome & invite us to have outlets in their shopping mall. By having 5 outlets now, we learn some experience and now we got the bargain power to negotiate with shopping mall/landlord to get a better location / rental rate.

Equity allocation.

We would like to value our company worth RM5 million. 2.5 X of our current up to date investment in term of $. We would like to liquidate our share in return to get fund.

ROI

If based on our best performance outlet (Midvalley and Velocity). Investment RM247k (franchise fee , renovation (can consider as asset), equipment (can consider as asset), renovation deposit( asset). Based on RM60,000 sales. Profit before tax will be around RM10k per month X 12 months = RM120,000 per annum . ROI are 48% per annum.

Exit potential.

We assume that once we grow up to certain size (example 10-20 outlets), there might be potential F&B group would like to acquire us.

Current retail market are suffering due to Malaysia economic . Although xxx Fried Chicken are new in Malaysia market but we still manage to sustain and gain profit in such tough situation. Our profit are low at this moment due to weak ringgit currency, but still manage to have 60% GP (if Ringgit are RM3.8 to 1 USD, our GP will increase another 2-3%). So we think now is the best timing for investor to come in, with a lower entry cost.

And we do also believe our fried chicken business can sustain for long term (Taiwan got 44 years history), due to we are not a “hit & run / trend “business. Nowadays there is a lot of F&B new concept in Malaysia which doesn’t sustain in long term, such as the bubble tea trend, cheese tart/cake, yogurt ice cream and etc.
