Impressive Financials: Not only did our first location far exceed initial sales goals, but we brought in over $1 million in sales in our first full year in business! In addition to that, we remained profitable in the first six months of 2020, despite the global pandemic. Our ability to quickly pivot the model to offer delivery and pick-up options demonstrates that we have a timely model that is here to stay.
Low Risk Investment: For a restaurant concept, Toastique has a considerably low initial investment starting at only $280,000 - about a third of the cost of a typical restaurant concept! Our simple model allows us to maintain very little overhead, increasing potential for faster ramp-up and ROI.
Growing Health Industry: Consumers are increasingly seeking out nutritious "grab-and-go" dining options. As health concerns continue to rise, we see that the availability of options in the fast casual space are becoming increasingly in demand. Consumers are also looking for food transparency on their menus, and Toastique candidly displays the derivative of their ingredients, as they are all locally sourced, prepared in-house and all natural.
Simplicity and Scalability: Toastique's compact, efficient design requires no extreme cooking equipment such as ovens, fryers or hoods, allowing for quick, affordable construction. In fact, we built our first three corporate locations in 40 days, from the start of demolition to receiving the Certificate of Occupancy! Once opened, our locations are manageable for one person to run alone if sales volume allows.
Flexible Dining Options: Our product offerings lend themselves to be eaten at one of our cafés, delivered to a home or office, or taken out. There is also unlimited potential for large catering opportunities as all of our menu items can be easily translated to a buffet or tray-passed form. The variety of methods we can use to bring our product to our customers provides diversification of revenue and extra security for our Owners.
