Executive Summary
Welcome to The Servant
The Servant will be a restaurant and bakery café situated in the heart of Savannah,
Georgia. Every item on the menu will be made from scratch. The scratch kitchen is
a concept that has fallen by the wayside over the past decade as restauranteurs
often buy more items from suppliers already prepared and frozen with a multitude
of preservatives. Savannah GA is #4 in the “Best US Cities” by Travel & Leisure
Magazine. The main feature of The Servant is the large window that allows
customers to sit and watch their favorite cakes baked, stacked, and decorated as
well as the pasta being made from scratch.
The restaurant portion of the business is anticipated to reach a revenue of $927K in
its first year of operation with annual revenue of $1.1M by year five. The bakery
portion of the establishment is expected to reach a revenue of $375K in year one an
annual revenue of $471K by year five. Competition within the restaurant industry is
high due to the large market concentration, whereas the market concentration for
independent bakeries is a bit lower.
The name The Servant came about because Lavenia places high value on customer
service. She has a strong background in customer service. Lavenia’s primary
background is in finance and working in a baker. In fact, the bakery she has worked
in was a favorite of Oprah Winfrey! Lavenia goes through life with the perspective
that we should treat others in the way you would like to be treated. This is The
Servant way!
Key Success Factors
To ensure success, The Sevant will need to implement to following key success
factors:
Access to multi-skilled and flexible workforce: Access to suitably skilled and
trained staff on hourly rates is required to meet peak customer demand periods.

Ability to quickly adopt new technology: Owners need to adopt new employee
training as well as kitchen and customer-related technology to
increase.productivity and lower labor costs.
Attractive product presentation: The atmosphere and ambiance of a restaurant are
important to attract and retain guests.
Proximity to key markets: It is important to be in a good, easily accessible location
that is close to target markets.
Ability to control stock on hand: Controlling orders, stock and food waste, which
are all major cost areas, can reduce unnecessary expenses.
Ensuring pricing policy is appropriate: To maintain costs and profit on meals,
owners must ensure that menu pricing/portion control process is undertaken
thoroughly.
Ability to attract local support/patronage: Many bakery cafes are local, small
establishments that thrive on word-of-mouth marketing and local patronage. If an
industry operator is able to develop a strong reputation for quality and service, it
can operate successfully in a
crowded marketplace.
Attractive product presentation: Bakery cafes commonly attract customers via
window displays of baked goods, so having an attractive product presentation
enables operators to attract more walking traffic into their stores.
Proximity to key markets: Industry operators that are located in high traffic areas
are able to attract more first time customers into their store, which can be a
competitive advantage.
Access to high quality inputs: Having access to high-quality inputs enable industry
operators to produce higher quality goods, which, in turn, leads to developing a
reputation of high quality. In a crowded marketplace, this can be essential in
attracting customers via word of mouth.

Opportunity
The Restaurant Industry
The Single Location, Full-Service Restaurants industry, is a $187.6 billion industry
and has experienced revenue growth of 1.9% over the five years to 2021. With a
profit of $7.5 billion and a profit margin of 4% as of September 2021, the strength of
the restaurant industry remains intact despite the Coronavirus pandemic.
For most of the past five years, the growing domestic economy and rising
consumer spending led to consistent increases in consumers spending money on
food away from home, increasing full-service restaurant spending. The fine-dining
segment performed exceptionally well over the majority of the past five years due
to solid growth in the income levels of affluent consumers. Conversely, restaurants
at the lower end of the market struggled with low growth as consumers traded
down to the innovative products served by a growing number of new high-quality
fast-casual chains during the same period. Nevertheless, when the coronavirus first
struck, industry operators were forced to curtail dine-in operations, thus reducing
demand for fine-dining restaurants as services at these establishments involve a
high degree of hands-on experience.
The Bakery Café Industry
Though the bakery café industry is a bit smaller, with a revenue of $11.7 billion as of
September 2021, the industry remains robust despite the pandemic. The revenue
growth for the five years leading up to 2021 has been at 1.7% and is predicted to
remain steady at 1.3% through 2026. The current annualized profit for the bakery
café industry is $573 billion.
These typically fast-casual restaurants led the quality and taste of full-service
establishments with the speed and affordability of fast-food chains. Consumers
have been drawn to the customizable options emerging on operators' menus. As a
result, industry growth has outpaced others in the foodservice sector. Overall

growth in per capita disposable income and increased coffee consumption has been
supported by industry performance.
The Market
The Restaurant Market
Restaurants that are very niched in their offerings as The Servant does in serving
soul food are not included in other categories and therefore fall into 'other.' Over
the past decade, this segment has changed as ethnic foods have become more
popular and obtained a larger market share, forcing them out of this segment. As
consumer preferences change and new foods and foodservice concepts enter the
market, this category changes its structure, although its size has remained
relatively consistent. Overall, this segment is expected to make up 6.9% of industry
revenue in 2021.
The Bakery Café Industry
Over the next five years to 2026, as consolidation persists, larger operators are
expected to have greater access to resources, enabling them to further their
franchise operations. Smaller operators will likely be forced to specialize, unable to
compete with significant chains, geographic reach, and marketing capital.

Operators in the Bakery Cafes industry are most known for their sweet treats and
dessert options. Pastries, cookies, and cakes account for the most extensive
product segment, at 69.0% in 2021. Of this segment, IBISWorld estimates that cakes
and cupcakes combined account for 45.1% of revenue, about $5.28bn. The Servant
will not be selling cupcakes. However, cupcake revenue is intertwined with cake
industry revenue. Over the five years to 2021, these segments have remained high
as the industry introduces new products and consumer preferences continue to
change. Since many bakery-cafes rely on word-of-mouth marketing to generate a
strong reputation for quality, this segment of products is the most important for
industry operators to be successful. By offering a wide variety of high-quality
products, bakery-cafes can more effectively compete with competitors. As a result,
this segment has been the largest segment over the five years to 2021.

Target Market
Savannah, Georgia is home to over 147,700 people. Savannah Area Chamber shows
Savannah's tourism as #4 in the "Best U.S Cities" by Travel & Leisure Magazine. In
2019, over 14.8 million visitors came to Savannah.
In 2021 there was an increase of tourism in the U.S. of 425 with slower but
continued growth through 2026. This is relevant to The Servant as tourists will
bring most of the business to the café.
Below are the market segments for the restaurant industry and the bakery cafe
industry:

CONFIDENTIAL - DO NOT DISSEMINATE. This business plan contains confidential, trade-secret
information and is shared only with the understanding that you will not share its contents or ideas with
third parties without the express written consent of the plan author.
Competition in this industry is high, and the trend is increasing. The full-service
restaurant industry competes based on location, food quality, style, presentation,
ambiance, hospitality, and service. Eating away from home is considered a luxury
for many households, making dining at industry establishments a luxury. For this
reason, price is the primary source of competition among industry operators.
However, operators that offer higher quality food and more upscale ambiance can
generally charge a slight premium on their menu items as consumers are willing to
pay more for the higher-end experience. Therefore, it is crucial industry operators
are aware of their target audience and place in the respective market.
Furthermore, operators compete based on the type and variety of food served. This
competition factor relies heavily on general consumer preferences and current
consumer cravings. For example, consumers are shifting preferences for health-
conscious and environmentally friendly industry establishments on a broad scale.
Still, they may desire unhealthy options based on momentary cravings, which is the
target market for the bakery. Restaurants are involved in marketing the meal
experience, so the operator must understand a restaurant's positioning in the
marketplace, the clientele they are attracting or want to attract, and the meal
experience. The café will focus on a southern, down-home atmosphere much like
Paula Dean's. Most importantly, a restaurant must consistently deliver on the
customers' expectations.
Research by the National Restaurant Association indicates that portion size and the
availability of to-go boxes are essential factors. A high proportion of the younger
generation orders more significant portions and requests a to-go box to use the
excess for another meal. Varying portion size also meets the value-for-money
criteria sought by many customers. Currently, there is a high demand for the ability
to customize orders, choose the type of sauce on the side, and have the food
prepared with cooking oil, margarine, butter, or no salt. Therefore, The Servant
needs to remain attuned to these trends and ensure they use this to their
advantage when considering their menu offering and prices.
The Bakery Cafe Industry
There is a lower concentration in the bakery café industry. Operators in the bakery
café industry compete directly with each other for customers. Bakery cafes located
in busy areas can compete more effectively than operators located further away
from large populations. Industry operators benefit from having a visible storefront,

CONFIDENTIAL - DO NOT DISSEMINATE. This business plan contains confidential, trade-secret
information and is shared only with the understanding that you will not share its contents or ideas with

and it is common for bakery-cafes to prominently display their offerings in a
window case to attract consumers. Bakery cafes located in densely populated areas
have a competitive advantage over inconveniently located industry participants;
there is no substitution for convenience to the consumer. Many of the industry's
customers have a minimal amount of time to choose a bakery to visit, as many of
them work full time and stop by a bakery for a quick bite to eat. While positive
word-of-mouth marketing is an asset to any industry operator, the combination of
a convenient location and a strong reputation creates a competitive advantage that
cannot be replicated via other means. Additionally, an operator's online presence
has become even more critical as consumers opt to order online and pick up due to
the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The leading competitive edge for The Servant is
that the bakery will feature a large, picture-sized window for patrons to sit at to
watch the barkers craft the cakes.
Current Alternatives
Currently, only 4.8% of the restaurants are in Savannah, Georgia. This makes for a
low level of competition within the immediate area. Even with other restaurants in
the immediate area, the uniqueness of The Servant is enough to set itself apart
from others as an ideal setting in which to relax and enjoy a meal made from
scratch with fresh ingredients and a dessert from one of the finest bakeries.
Our Advantages
The Servant has the following advantages over other restaurants and bakeries in
the Savannah, GA, area:
1) The restaurant will offer a southern-style atmosphere, serving ethnic African
American cuisines. This will be the sole focus of the restaurant portion of the
business. Therefore, the chefs will be trained in the necessary methods to prepare
and cook these dishes.
2) The owner's son is trained in culinary arts and has experience as a chef. He will
be working in the kitchen. The owner, Lavenia Young, has experience working in an
upscale bakery and has a background in finance. Therefore, she will be able to serve
as the lead barker. Additionally, outsourcing the accounting and finance duties will
not be a need.
