Brazilian restaurants have become extremely popular over the past two decades as the cost of meat has declined within the United States. A traditional Brazilian restaurant usually focuses on being able to provide its customers with a number of freshly cooked meats that are brought out on large skewers that are then served to customers. This type of cuisine has become extremely popular, and these businesses are able to generate substantial revenues from each customer. Given that these restaurants often operate in an all-you-can-eat capacity, the gross margins can vary significantly by customer. However, typically the gross margins generated from each ticket are around 75%. The startup costs associated with the new Brazilian restaurant are considered to be moderate and one can be started for as little as $100,000 to as much as $500,000. The startup costs for this type of retail restaurant operation may be higher if real estate is being purchased or developed in conjunction with the business. The ongoing operating risks are considered to be moderate given that a substantial amount of food inventory must be held on a daily basis. One of the nice things about owning and operating a Brazilian restaurant is that they can be expanded very quickly. Many entrepreneurs that go into this industry will often develop catering services that reduce the risks with operating a standalone restaurant on a day-to-day basis.
Most financial institutions and private funding sources are willing to put up the necessary capital in order to start a new Brazilian restaurant. Of course, a business plan is going to be needed and this document should include a three year profit and loss statement, cash flow analysis, balance sheet, breakeven analysis, and business ratios page. If an entrepreneur is looking to raise capital via a bank loan that is important to showcase the furniture, fixtures, and equipment that are purchased for the restaurant as most financial institutions want to see that their investment is going to be fully collateralized. Most financial institutions will also provide a significant amount of capital as it relates to the renovation and build out of the restaurant location. Beyond discussing the anticipated financial results of the business, a full demographic analysis showcasing local and regional population size, population density, median household income, median family income, house values, and other pertinent demographic information should be included in the business plan as well. Within smaller cities there is usually very limited competition among traditional Brazilian restaurants. As such, the competitive analysis can be can done relatively quickly but a focus should also be paid on similar cuisines that will be in ongoing competition with the restaurant.
A Brazilian restaurant marketing plan also needs to be developed. One of the most important aspects of operating a restaurant is to have an expansive marketing strategy that brands the restaurant as a mid to high-end location that serves a plethora of unique Brazilian food. Of utmost importance is the development of a proprietary website that showcases the menu, pricing, hours of operation, contact information, whether or not credit cards are accepted, and whether or not there is a bar on site. One of the ways that these businesses can draw in a substantial number of customers is by maintaining an in-house bar. Beyond a proprietary website should be listed among all major search engines, a presence on social media is of equal importance. Most Brazilian restaurant owners will maintain an expansive profiles on FaceBook, Twitter, Google+, and Instagram to showcase the location, the menu, and other important facets of the location. These days many social media platforms allow individual users to leave reviews for eateries. As such, once the Brazilian restaurant developed a strong local and regional reputation – the return on the market investment will be significant. It is imperative that an entrepreneur work to get great reviews at the onset of operations so that people will continually come down to the restaurant on an ongoing basis. Also, many owners of Brazilian restaurants will develop ongoing relationships with event planners and caterers so that the specialty type of cuisine can be provided for private events. Again, this can substantially reduce the risks that are associated with operating a restaurant given that a significant amount of revenues can be generated during off hours and throughout weekends. It is also important to note that most of these businesses also maintain profiles on Yelp.com as well as TripAdvisor.com.
A Brazilian restaurant SWOT analysis should also be developed. As it relates to strengths, Brazilian restaurants have become very popular and they generally moderately high gross margins as a function of the underlying inventory cost. For weaknesses, the ongoing operating expenses can be high given that there are going to be a number of staff on hand and inventory acquisitions can be expensive. Fluctuations in the prices of meat can have a negative impact on the company’s profit and loss statement. For opportunities, beyond developing third-party catering operations most restaurants expand by simply establishing additional locations. While this is expensive and it carries its risks, this can be one of the quickest ways that a restaurant can grow during the life of the business. Finally, relating to threats – outside of volatility in inventory pricing there’s really nothing that would impact the way that these companies do business. Within the United States eating meat is a big way of life and the demand among Brazilian restaurants has seen a resurgence given this fact. As such, there is going to be very little that could potentially impact the way that these companies conduct their operations.
