- Market Outlook / Competition
- There are a lot of burger joints out there. But we think a locally owned drive thru that uses local beef is pretty unique and has a good chance to stand out against the competition. The combination of fish and burgers is pretty unique and successful as well.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Our next plan was to expand into breakfast and shakes. The long term goal was to be the famous neighborhood spot to grab a bite at pretty much anytime of the day.
