A FRANCHISE BUSINESS PROPOSAL

I. Introduction

A. Background of Company

■ Nature of the business

The franchise will be in kiosk-form, in which a variety of takoyaki

will be served. Takoyaki flavors will be based from different countries

such as: The Philippines, Japan, United States of America, and China. The

franchise aims to increase the potential of takoyaki to reach throughout the

world with the franchise name, Takoyummy. It is a franchise formed by

partnership of three parties.

■ Target market

Takoyaki, in the Philippines is considered as a morsel or a snack

that is delightful to the tastebuds of teenagers to adults. Takoyummy’s

target market are students from nearby universities and schools. It aims to

reside in places that are usually visited by students and young adults.

B. Management Profile

■ Mission Statement

The franchise’s mission is “To be the leading Takoyaki-serving

business in the Philippines.”

■ Vision Statement

The franchise’s vision is “To serve exceptional takoyaki meals,

made with high-quality ingredients.

C. Product Description
■ Filipino Takoyaki

Filipino Takoyaki is a takoyaki that has a flavor of pork adobo. It

has a salty sour sweet taste coming from the toyo, suka, and sugar that are

used in cooking it. Pork adobo is a Filipino dish that is serve throughout

the country. Filipino Takoyaki will be made with pork meat and topped

with adobo sauce.

■ Japanese Takoyaki

Takoyaki was first popularized in Osaka, where a street

vendor named Tomekichi Endo is credited with its invention in

1935. Takoyaki inspired by Akashiyaki, a small round dumpling

from the city of Akashi, Hyōgo Prefecture made of an egg-rich

batter and octopus. Takoyaki was initially popular in the Kansai

region, but later spread to the Kantō region and other areas of

Japan. It will be made with dried octopus or squid as its main

ingredient.

■ American Takoyaki

American citizens are in fond of eating beef, specifically burgers.

Takoyummy has infused ground beef to takoyaki topped off with gravy

sauce that are usually used in steak. As steak can be rich and flavorful but

consuming a steak makes a person full. American Takoyaki is created to

reach and satisfy the people who are in fond of eating steak and satisfy

their cravings without them having to eat much.

■ Chinese Takoyaki

Chinese restaurants oftenly keep their seafood fresh displaying the


sea creatures outside their kitchen to show visitors and customers that they

are serving freshly cooked seafood dishes. This leads takoyummy to infuse

seafood, specifically fish, to be infused with their takoyaki. Chinese

takoyaki will be made of fish as its main ingredient topped off with a

sauce that matches the freshness of the fish.

■ Takoyummy Special

Chicken is widely used in fast food chains. Generally, fast food

chains have chicken meals on their menu. In the Philippines, most of the

population prefer chicken over other meat because it is cheaper. Filipinos

have grown to love chicken meat because they consume it almost 3 times

a week. Takoyummy infused chicken with it takoyaki to satisfy the daily

cravings of the consumers.

■ Drinks

There are three different kinds/flavors of drink: Black Gulaman,

Blue Lemonade, and Red Iced Tea. The idea of selling black gulaman

came from other kiosk type franchise. Most of these franchises offer black

gulaman as their beverage to complement the snack or meal that they are

selling. The Philippines is a tropical country wherein the temperature is

around 32 to 36 degrees in average. The idea of Blue Lemonade is to

quench the thirst of every customer it attracts. When a person thinks of

Red Iced Tea, the idea that comes to mind is that it came from Japan. This

drink is offered to complement the Japanese Takoyaki being served.

II. Food Safety

Food safety is increasingly a top priority and focus area for all food service-based franchisors,
company employees, franchisees, and by extension, their employees. Food safety has always
been important throughout the restaurant industry. Recent changes to laws combined with
increased public awareness have combined to heighten the attention and importance of Food
Safety. This is very important, and in the opinion of the management of ABC Restaurant
Company, this is as it should be.

It is the duty and the responsibility of Takoyummy Franchise Company to ensure that the food
and beverages served daily in our franchises to our customers meets the highest standards
possible and are free of any and all contamination. It is all of our jobs to ensure the necessary
steps are taken for the “safety of food” served to our customers and the public on a daily basis.
The major purposes of this section are to:

● Identify Food Safety importance in providing food to customers that is both good and
safe to eat.
● Review the environment and conditions that allow food safety problems to exist.
● Demonstrate proper food safety procedures.

Preventive Procedures for Food Safety:

Human hands may carry viruses and bacteria. For prevention it is recommended that restaurant
staff wash their hands:

● Immediately before reporting to shift or work


● Immediately after handling raw products, trash or money
● After telephone or restroom usage
● Before and after eating at break

For proper hand washing the following is recommended:

1. The sink area must be properly stocked with disinfectant soap and paper towels.
2. Run your hands under warm water.
3. Lather your hands up to your elbows with disinfectant soap scrubbing between fingers
and around nails removing soil, dirt and bacteria.
4. Rotate and rub your hands together for twenty seconds to kill germs
5. Rinse hands thoroughly with warm water
6. Dry hands with a clean paper towel or hot air dryer

III. Cleanliness

Customers expect food-service based businesses to be clean, free of contaminants, and without
any negative odors. They should expect this and as employees of Takoyummy Franchise
Company should expect this of themselves. The place of business is a direct reflection of the
employees of Takoyummy Franchise Company and the company itself.

A clean kiosk suggests that the empoyees of Takoyummy Franchise Company have pride in their
work and what they do every day on the job.

Cleanliness is a key factor, not only in supporting the business, but is a determinant in the overall
success and growth of the business.

In this section of the operations manual, Cleanliness Standards are addressed.

Cleanliness Standards:

2. Spray clean the table top
3. Place all trash on one serving tray and stack the trays. Avoid trash spillage from the trays.
4. Wipe tops, sides, edges and beneath the tabletop.
5. Spray the chair seats with disinfectant.

IV. Customer Service

As an employee, positive attitude demonstrated towards the customer, and the resolution of
customer complaints, is vitally important in how we effectively manage the complaints of
customers

When a customer has a complaint, the company recommends the team to take the following
steps:

1. Begin by listening to the complaint. What exactly is the customer telling you and what
precisely are they dissatisfied about?
2. Do not interrupt and let the customer fully explain their complaint. It may be that it is
easily corrected.
3. Maintain eye contact with the customer as much as possible.
4. Apologize for errors and inconveniences. Do not blame anyone for the problem, take full
responsibility.
5. Answer with empathy. If you were the customer, how would you like the issue resolved?
6. Tell the customer that corrective action will be done swiftly, the problem will be resolved
as soon as possible and, if possible, indicate what actions will be taken to resolve the
problem.
7. If you require approval from a superior to resolve the issue, let the customer know this is
the case.
8. Thank the customer for bringing the complaint to your attention.
9. Repeat the apology if necessary.

Customer service at the register:


An important part of a positive customer service is the interaction at the register and in taking
and submitting the food order. In performing these duties, we recommend the standard team
member practices to include the following:

● Remember to ring in every single order


● Only accept authorized discounts on orders
● Check and only accept authorized coupons or gift cards
● Ensure you are checked into the register correctly with your name and employee number.
Both the restaurant manager and the team member on the register must count the cash
drawer at the beginning and end of shift.
● Ensure that each coupon is marked and defaced after usage and stored correctly

Standard order taking procedures should include the following:

● Greet every customer in a friendly fashion as they approach the register


● Smile upon ordering
● Ask, “may I take your order please?”
● Determine where the order will be eaten by the customer before the order is keyed in.
This will identify for the food maker how to properly wrap the food.
● If the food is take out , press the appropriate “to go” button on the register
● As the order is being given, enter the items into the register.
● Clarify the complete order after the customer has finished ordering to ensure accuracy

Completing the order:

We recommend the following for completing or fulfilling the customer order:

● Repeat the order to the customer to display listening and for accuracy
● Press the appropriate register keys and get the total amount of the order displayed
● Thank the customer and remind them of the total order amount
● Take money or monitor credit card transaction. The money should be placed immediately
to the correct drawer and small change slots
● Press the appropriate change key
● After completing the transaction say “thank you” to the customer
● Acknowledge the completion of the order by placing the tray or bag in front of the
customer
● Greet and call the next customer to the register area.

The importance of Customer Service:

● It is a leading indicator of customer intent to repurchase and loyalty


● It can be an important aspect and point of differentiation versus our competitors
● It reduces customer loss or churn
● It increases the lifetime value of customers
● It combats any negative feedback or negative public relations

V. Safety

Takoyummy Franchise Business is committed to the health and safety of its customers and its
employees. We will comply with all laws, health standards and laws, and all corresponding
ordinances. A healthy and a safe environment is a primary consideration for everyone.

We believe most accidents occur because of unsafe behavior. On the job, it is important to follow
safe work practices such as:

● Wearing personal protective equipment


● Properly reporting all accidents
● Complying with the proper safety hazard standards, rules and laws
● Making safety a priority and an integral part of restaurant operations and work

Employee Safety Rules:

All employees must use protective equipment such as:

III. Market Study

A. Direct & Indirect Competitors

■ The direct competitors are companies that offers identical goods and/or

services to the market. These competitors offer relative pricing for similar

products. Some known competitors such as, Samurai, Krakuden Takoyaki,

Hokkaido Takoyaki, Octoboy offers the same product Takoyaki.

■ Indirect competitors are vendors whose products or services are not

identical but that could satisfy the same consumer need. Takoyummy is a

franchise that offers Takoyaki as a snack to the market. Numerous vendors

offer different kinds of snack that makes them an indirect competitor of

the franchise. These vendors offer food that are considered as snack in the

Philippines. Master Siomai, Hen Lin, Queggs, Siomai House, Waffle

Time, are indirect competitors of Takoyummy.

B. Supply & Demand

■ According to the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), there are only

16 registered takoyaki business in the Philippines. 16 different takoyaki

business is quite fair for an over populated country. The population of the

Philippines garnered 104.9 million in the year 2017. Considering only 16

takoyaki business in the Philippines, these businesses will not be enough

to cater to 104.9 million. The supply of takoyaki is insufficient in the

Philippines.

C. Unsatisfied Demand
■ After a long day at school doing school activities, research papers, taking

quizzes studying, etc., students tend to buy food that will refuel their

energy that has been consumed in doing such activities. Apparently,

businesses that are raised nearby schools or universities are restaurants

that offer heavy meals that are quite costly. Some students have limited

allowances that do not satisfy their hunger. These unsatisfied demands

from the students shows that takoyaki, a snack from Japan, is marketable

in school/university areas.

D. Market Share

■ Usually inside the mall, the food stalls that have long queues of customers

are takoyaki franchise booths. Most of these booths offer low priced

takoyaki. Low priced takoyaki denotes poor quality and taste. Building

Takoyummy franchises would satisfy the demands of consumers that seek

high quality takoyaki and a tasty snack for a very affordable price. The

market share of the franchise would be students that crave for a snack that

is made out of high quality products and at the same time affordable.
