Product profile 2A range of cooked food: hamburger, chips, pies, chickens, is needed along with the regular sandwiches which are mostly requested during work week lunchtime.

The location of the proposed FOODAWAY shop is on a central road with nearby office buildings, many used by government departments and manufacturing area and there is parking near the shop for workers driving to the industrial area –they can pick up evening meals on their way home or come to the shop for mid day food. On weekends, shopping and transit traffic can buy form FOODAWAY as it is conveniently located to obtain snacks and take away.

The present owners of the business started it two years ago and have built a reasonable trade. Do to the family illness the were not always able to keep enough staff at peak periods and couldn’t deal with all the customers, so some business would go to the other shop in the area although it is not as new or well located. Many customers would return to the FOODAWAY style shop if changes are made.

The food service products are to be sandwiches, hot food: hamburgers, chips, pies, etc and roast chicken as a portion pack with chips (good for dinner take away) and whole chicken. The present owners do not have the roast chicken specialty nor do they promote the business in the area. Chicken is popular for lunch specialty sandwiches; portion pack and evening take away. With the usual takeaway foods, addition of a range of roast chicken products will give food away new variety for the area and cater for a 7 day market. There is no immediate benefit in organizing a partnership or registering a company for the purpose of running the business.
