Despite generating $500 to $1,000 per day, the founders felt that there was no point in continuing if they couldn't achieve their bigger purpose, and expanding wasn't feasible either.

$500 = 365 days = $182500 :eek:

$500 to $1000 sounds a lot, but take consideration if Rent, Bills, Raw materials and Salary??

social enterprise dont look like la

Staff would be given an opportunity to eventually run their own stall under Big Dot Chicken, with no franchise fees or royalties, as long as they worked at the original outlet for six months.

isnt like franchise

"Each Singaporean can open a maximum of two stalls, so let's say I use my name, I have to be there every day, but I can't as I have my existing business to run. And Jenny can't handle two stalls at the same time."

The founders are all entrepreneurs: Mr Koh runs a corporate training company and comes from a local multi-generational F&B family business, Ms Adillah owns a research analytics firm, and Ms Lee is a private chef under her own business Nanyang Chef.

i think can, u see wingstop.

Ya lor. 5 figures investment....

ROI = i.e 99,999 /ave 750 = approx. 133 days to breakeven.
Any ROI less than 6 mths is a good investment lor.
What they assume? ROI in 1 mth?

They can continue to sell their fried chicken recipe.
Yup.
They pivot liao
Don't do B2C selling chicken pieces for a puny $500 revenue (maybe 30% profit margin), so much work.
now do B2B selling chicken recipe for $888 pure profit margin (100% profit margin).

Just target 1 month sell 10 recipes can get back $8,880 sitting at home.
if lucky can hit 100 recipes transactions .. will get back $$88,880 MONTHLY .

Another solid example that rental does not affect food prices, only will make them close down.
