Description:
Calypso is a fully developed restaurant concept incorporating profitable elements of espresso-based coffee shops with casual dining in a trendy neighborhood setting.
Calypso seeks to open its initial location in Northeast Jacksonville, Florida; an area with rapid residential development over the last five years that is under served by commercial and retail development. This combination provides a broad base of customers defined in market research to hold significant potential for a neighborhood restaurant amid very little competition due to a lack of developed commercial land use.
In summary, Calypso is a great idea with a well researched location in need of startup financing to realize the long term potential outlined in the available business plan.
