1. Rent requirements: The monthly rent is preferably less than 1/4-1/3 of the estimated turnover; it is best to have no transfer fees; the lease term can be guaranteed for more than 3 years; the rent can increase moderately, but try to slow down the increase
Or the smaller the increment value, the better (the increment cannot exceed 8%).
It is not recommended to invest in a store that has a long maintenance period. Although the rent is relatively cost-effective, if the store maintenance period is too long, it is easy to have long nights and nightmares. Therefore, it is generally recommended that the store maintenance period should be within half a year.
2. The area requirements are determined based on the positioning of your own store and financial strength.
Personally, I suggest that the ideal use area of ??a catering restaurant is 100-300 square meters, and the upper limit is about 500 square meters, because such an area can have sufficient functions.
For example, under normal circumstances, the area of ??many independent catering restaurants is about 100 square meters, Starbucks is about 300 square meters, and Man Coffee is about 2,000 square meters. 3. Floor requirements If it is in a shopping mall, it must be close to elevators or theaters with large flow of people.
It is appropriate to rent in an area where the rent is conspicuous.
It is also a good choice if you avoid first-tier stores such as Starbucks in shopping malls. The rent is relatively cheap and you can avoid direct competition.
If it is a shop facing the street, it is generally recommended that the first and second floors are the best. The second floor can be slightly larger because it is quieter and the rent is more suitable.
For example, the Sculpture Time Wudaokou store is located on the second and third floors of a three-story building. The second floor is relatively large, and there is an outdoor terrace available on the third floor. If it is a single-family building, consider whether the area and internal structure are suitable.
The author once introduced a campus store with more than 400 square meters on two floors. The configuration is very luxurious and can be used more fully. Of course, if the store owner is good at online marketing and has a strong ability to play circles, he can also choose the innermost floor, as well as alleys and
Residents downstairs, and even on the rooftop of the building.
4. Roof height. In general, the indoor floor height should be more than 3 meters. If you want to make a partition, the best floor height should be more than 5.5 meters. It is best not to have too many pillars or partition walls indoors.
To avoid affecting the usable area, if there are pillars and partitions, ask whether they can be partially dismantled or disposed of.
If it is a Korean-style store, it will be more effective if the space is larger, for example, it can be divided into layers, hollowed out, etc.
5. Decoration requires a rent-free period for decoration, at least 30 days, preferably around 60 days. Of course, the longer the rent-free period, the better, because it normally takes at least 15-20 days to design a restaurant.
Decorating a restaurant generally takes 30-90 days depending on the size and difficulty of construction.
Rent-free period for decoration...it sounds difficult.
Moderate modifications to the indoor space are allowed, such as floor-to-ceiling windows, overhead ceilings, removal of some columns or partition walls, etc.
6. Smoke exhaust requirements Generally speaking, the higher the proportion of food, the higher the smoke exhaust requirements, especially outdoor smoke removal.
For example, many shops in residential buildings do not have open flames.
In other words, it does not have the conditions to produce a large number of meals. Even if there are gas pipelines, the smoke exhaust pipes in residential buildings do not have the conditions for commercial use. If this is not considered carefully, it can easily cause disputes involving smoke disturbing residents.
7. Fire protection requires that the entire building must pass fire protection acceptance, and the restaurant must have certain fire protection facilities, such as sprinklers, smoke detectors or fire hydrants!
This item is particularly important. If the fire protection of the entire building has not been inspected and accepted, the fire protection approval of the restaurant will be almost impossible to pass.
8. Lighting requirements: There should be several windows with good lighting in the restaurant. Not only can it save electricity, but more importantly, light can enter the room and create a very comfortable atmosphere, especially if there is glass that can be extended to the floor.
9. Water and electricity requirements Normally, the water and electricity requirements of a small restaurant are not high, and even household water and electricity facilities are enough.
However, it should be noted that the water and electricity lines in old houses are best inspected and repaired to prevent water and electricity leakage problems caused by years of disrepair.
In addition, large restaurants have higher requirements. They must have good drainage facilities and sufficient electricity. At the same time, the kitchen must have a three-phase power supply.
10. The signboard requires a wider surface to be more conspicuous. Of course it is good, but the key lies in whether it can be easily seen by customers. Therefore, you need to apply to the property management for more opportunities to display the signboard.
You can also use your imagination to create attractive highlights, such as: external speakers, special projector lights, interesting outdoor blackboards, outdoor "enchanting" small posters, outdoor fun small sculptures, etc.
11. Are there any landmark buildings or intersections around the perimeter that are convenient for customers to drive to?
If you open a very tasteful restaurant in a place surrounded by wholesale markets, canteens, and vegetable markets, the success rate will definitely not be too high.
