3. Executive Summary
This business plan, written after the analysis of documentation and information given by the founders is a guide for understanding the starting and managing of the new
business of Dousoeur de Paris LLC.
Dousoeur de Paris is formed to create exceptional new products for the New York City pastry market. Most of the prestigious American Companies are centered in the
financial State of New York City. New York exhibits high level of consummation. The average wages in Manhattan are $93,000 which are 3 times greater than the national
average of $30,413 (sources, North east Mid West Instit. 2001).
The New York City population consumes and spends a lot of their budget in the food sector. The business of French pastry Boutique in Manhattan is to bring and offer a
new wave in the American bakery and coffee shop industry. New York City is the perfect location to implement the business, to answer consumers’ needs and satisfaction,
with easy reach of its target market.
Dousoeur de Paris will develop an attractive interior design with exceptional new brand quality products of French origins; such as Opera, Paris-Brest, Cygne, Religious and
delicious chocolate. The Boutique will present excellent quality in terms of test presentation, service with very competitive pricing and products not produced yet by the
competition ( Ceci Cela, Balthazar, Fauchon etc.). Dousoeur de Paris will be based on Madison Avenue, a shop has been identified in a quality space.
The experience of the French pastry Chef Corine Fina with more than 11 year experience in the industry insures success for Dousoeur de Paris. Ms Fina will be the
Operations Director. The team will also include Romain Bugaje as the Executive Chef. M. Bugaje is very knowledgeable of the French Pastry tradition and has been
recommended by the 4 stars restaurant Movenpick Dream Castle hotel in Paris.
The evolution and growth of sales will be permanent because of the authenticity of the products and their high quality.
To attract new customers, Diane Cepeda, the President, will manage and direct special events for the business. She brings a significant cliental book based on her experience
as a stylist for Chanel for 3 years. Other important client connections will be part of this project with Orlando Cepeda as the Marketing Director who has more than 6 year
experience working for Trump Management.
The evolution of the net income over the 5 next years reveals the controlling of costs, the restriction of the number of employees, the use of outsourcing, specially for special
events (freelance). The profitability is achieved thanks to a gross margin rate of 76% which represents a quote between 3 and 5 points, basically used in pastry business.
The first capitalization enables the Company to insure the reimbursement of the financial debt. And the structure of the working capital provides cash flows from operating
activities.
The Tax and Payroll analysis does not reveal particular risk, except that each founder of the Company is a key man for the success of the business.
The Business Plan shows ambitions of Dousoeur de Paris to become a key actor of New York Pastry business by the professionalism and skills of the team. Margin rates and
costs structure seem relevant and enable to increase the profitability.

Working Capital
The working capital is negative over the 5 next years in accordance with the retail activity and the low level of inventories. The level of
inventory increases from $6000 in 2007 to $17,885 in 2011 in compliance with the level of activity. The maximum of accounts payable
amounts to $14,904 in 2011.
The evolution of working capital is assessed with the following assumptions:
Over the 5 next years, the inventories consist mainly of raw material for the pastry. The rotation is estimated to 18 days of
purchases considering the expiration date of these products,
The payment terms for the receivables are estimated to 0 due to the activity of retail,
The payment terms for suppliers of raw materials are estimated at the minimum (15 days) considering the quick rotation of the
products. The general and administrative expenses are supposed to be paid at 30 days except the rental that is due on the
beginning of the month.
Accrued taxes mainly consist in a 10% balance of the estimated income taxes usually paid with the extension in March of the next
year.
