When opening a restaurant, no matter what type of restaurant it is, one of the most important things that everyone must take into account is “ Location .” It is said that whether a restaurant will be successful or not, whether it will have customers or be quiet.LocationIt has a direct impact and is generally applicable to opening a restaurant, coffee shop or dessert shop.LocationWhat is believed to be good isLocationWith high traffic But in reality of the current restaurant business, high traffic does not mean that it is the entire customer group of the restaurant. Therefore, analyzing the target group that we want is more important than high traffic. And areas with high traffic will definitely come with heavy rent. Therefore, in choosing any location, it is recommended that you analyze first that our restaurant, our products, the service format is suitable for which group of people, what is the eating behavior, and then choose the appropriate location. This is the most correct way to choose a location. The right location for us may not be a high traffic source, but a specific group of traffic sources, such as:LocationAs follows
hospitalFrom surveying areas for doing restaurant business, we found that hospital areas are one area that is interesting because every day there are a lot of customers and sales can be made from early morning until about 3 p.m. The advantage is that normally there are not many restaurant choices in hospitals, depending on the size of the hospital. The main group of people who go there are patients who are not comfortable walking far to find something to eat and have to wait to be called in line, which is a good thing for restaurants or beverage shops that open in hospitals. Many famous restaurant and beverage brands also give importance toLocationIn the hospital, if anyone is interestedLocationThis allows you to try surveying the area and see what level of people come to use the services because in each hospital the level of people who go for treatment is different. It can be divided into government and private hospitals to make surveying easier. As for the costs, they depend on the conditions of each hospital, which may be an auction system or open space for rent.
Gas stationNowadays, gas stations are not just places to stop by and fill up with gas. These days, gas stations have been developed into little community malls. Some gas stations have almost become centers for food, beverages, and souvenir shops. This may be because the oil business itself does not generate much profit after deducting various expenses. Therefore, each gas station operator must find other sources of income in the non-oil group. Developing the area into a community mall has become a source of additional income. Of course, this kind of adjustment of gas stations has made the area in the gas station another interesting location with a rent that is not as high as in a department store or community mall. There is a parking lot and a common bathroom that will help facilitate tenants. There are continuous customers in the area. However, it does not mean that every gas station is a suitable location for investment. It depends on the location of the gas station whether it is suitable for the food and beverages that we will sell. And what you need to study more if you want to open a shop in a gas station is the conditions for renting space, which are divided into:Investment conditions: What do we need to invest in?such as
Invest in glass walls, glass doors, interior decoration, and equipment in the store.
Public utility work within the shop, shop sign work
Various expenses incurred from operating a business and renting space, such as sign tax
House and land tax, local development tax, rental area value-added tax, etc.
Payment of rental income to gas stations, such as:
Rental fee for space/building or rental fee for space/building and service fee (monthly)
Common area expenses (monthly)
Utilities (monthly) such as electricity/water/telephone bills
Security deposit for rental contract (one-time payment)
In addition to the 2 locations that have been mentioned as examples, there are other locations that you might not expect to be locations that generate good sales without having to worry, such as schools, universities, other government offices, or various industrial estates. These are locations that have a clear group of customers that are interesting to invest in. The conditions for renting are mostly in the form of an auction where old owners often fight hard to get continuous rights because these locations definitely have a group of customers. Whoever gets the space has a chance to sell very well!
