Description of the business
The type of business that will be established in the world of work is a restaurant by the name of
“Zanni N Jay’s Café”. The type of business that will be established is a partnership style in
which the company will be operated by Zaneta Skyers and yours truly (Aaron Skyers Jr). This
business will cater for the welfare of individuals who will want to dine in just for breakfast,
lunch or dinner or if the person has a date and wants to be in a luxurious setting, then Zanni N
Jay’s Café is the place to be. The main goal of this restaurant is to provide scrumptious meals
that will enlighten your taste buds to flavors beyond your imagination. We will provide high
quality food, we will also use the delivery service in which meals will be delivered on time at
reasonable prices, and the prices are unbelievable! We are open Sundays to Thursdays 8:30 am -
7:00 pm and Fridays 8:30 am – 4:00 pm

Justification of location
Zanni N Jay’s Café will be located in the town at Royal Mall shop #27. Royal Mall is located in
Port Antonio, Portland. The restaurant is located near the markets shops and Rubis gas station.
The three main reasons why we chose that location are:
The location is right at the foot of the Titchfield Peninsula in which students pass to go to
school daily, which will buy our food in the evenings
The location is opposite to the pier in Portland, in which tourists and individuals frequent
daily, this will also help in the development of the business
There are many other reasons why we chose this location but the final reason for
choosing this location is because of market pull, our restaurant is very close to the
market, this will pull potential customers to our restaurant and when individuals come in
and partake of the delicious meals they will come in again and I am sure they will bring
or tell their friends and family about our restaurant.

Selection of Appropriate Labor
In the business the workers are well sorted out, we have approximately 22 workers in the firm
there are:
5 full time chefs
5 full time assistant chefs
5 waiters
5 janitors
1 driver
1 cashier
The reason we have 5 full time and 5 part time chefs is because each chef can have an assistant
that could or can help him/her,
For e.g.
Say that the chef is preparing the meal and he needs the pot to be heated while he is cutting up
the carrots, tomatoes, onions, escallion, garlic etc, he can just tell his assistant to put on the pot
so that when he is through with the cutting up of his ingredients he can move faster and the food
will be prepared more quickly, or in other words it is less time consuming.
As I stated before there are 22 employees working in the restaurant, the work is shared evenly as
follows:
Position Number of
Employees
Function in the business
Full time Chef 5 To prepare meals.

5 To assist in making meals.
Waiters 5 To serve the customers their meals.

something that remains above what is needed or used, simply put it’s the leftover or extra
resource(s) that was produced .In the surplus level of production we will endorse to export our

Quality Control Measures
At Zanni N Jay’s Café, we believe that cleanliness is next to godliness, we ensure that our café is
up to standard. We have health specialists who come in once per week to check our Machinery
and building structure to see if it is suitable for us to continue our business.
16. 16
Uses of Technology
Technology plays a vital role in our business. Some of the technologies that we use are:
Computer-we use the computer to recording the financial data. For e.g. how much sales we made
for the day, it is also used for accounting, etc.
Telephone- we use the telephone as a means of communication. For e.g. a person may not
be able to leave his/her workplace, they will simply just call us, order their meal and we
deliver it to the specified location
Internet- we use the internet to advertize our restaurant. By doing this we attract more
customers and this helps us in our sales.
17. 17
Linkages
In terms of linkages Zanni N Jay’s Café operates in the backward linkage. We will depend on the
farmers to produce the raw material for us. Materials such as:
Carrots
Sweet Pepper
Escallion
Thyme
Chicken
Tomatoes
Lettuce, etc
Also materials from fabric stores in which we will use to decorate the restaurant. The fabric will
aid in enhancing the beautification of the luxurious restaurant.
The benefits of the backward linkage to the farmers is that when we buy goods from the farmers
it will increase their income and also it will provide funds for the farmers to develop and expand
18. 18
their farms so we can get better crops and this will also aid in employment in the agricultural
sector.
Potential for Growth
The company has a great potential to grow, because of high demand by school attendees,
business personnel’s, tourists and many others the company can grow and must grow.
The business can even set up a couple other Branches Island wide, in doing this person will
know more about the business and this will help in the sales.
19. 19
Government Regulations
All business’ should obey the laws of the government in doing this personnel’s working within
the entity who feel safe knowing that the business is up to standard to the governments rules and
regulations, meaning persons will feel good working in the business. Government regulations
include the registering of the business, taxation, proper waste disposal etc. Also the business
owner must ensure that the workers MUST have a Food Handlers Permit. Also workers are
expected to pay minimum wage and overtime when worked in keeping with the government
regulations.
20. 20
Ethnical issues
The ethnical issues are merely guidelines of how businesses should treat their disposals. At
Zanni N Jay’s Café we take pride in the disposal of our waste or garbage. We have sanitary bins
both inside and outside of our restaurant. We have fines in place at our restaurant that goes for all
our employees, if they are caught littering whether inside or outside of the restaurant they will
21. 21
have to pay a fine of $3500. So in doing this nobody will want to pay this fine, so they desist
from littering.
