the cafe industry revenue will be expected to grow by 3.2% in 2015-2016. In this low
barrier and high competitive industry, it is crucial for Force to come out with a unique

Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe>
1 Business Summary1.1 About the Company
The idea of Wroof Café is developed from the brainstorming of five members in
Applied Business Challenge Class. The idea is generated due to the pet owner
consider their pets are a part of the family. Besides that, the trend of bringing dog to
café is popular in Sydney (Saurine 2014). Therefore, it is an opportunity to bring this
innovation trend into Melbourne.

Melbourne CBD. The business concept “Wroof Café” involves the combination of
dining and relaxing environment for owners and dogs. Wroof Café is determined to

1.3 The Market
The café industry in Australia is growing strongly as Australian demand for the
quality coffee and influence by the coffee culture. Especially in Melbourne, the
number of people who visiting café is much higher than other city such as Sydney,
Hobart, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide (Roy Morgan 2015). The market in the café
industry is growing 2.37% due to the increase demand of coffee. According to Ryan
(2015), the market revenue will grow 2.5% continuously in the next five years and
the annual industry revenue will reach around 6.0 billion.
The target market of the business will be the people who live 5 km radius from
Melbourne CBD. There are 1,965,105 citizens live within 5 km radius from
Melbourne CBD. According to the survey result (Appendix 5), the target customers
are mainly focus on the citizens who aged 20 to 29 years old, dog owner and the
citizens that will visit café at least once a month. After narrowing down the market
based on the quantifying method, 38,554 of citizens will visit the café and only 5%
(market share that suggested by Ryan 2015) will visit Wroof café. The estimated
annual sales of Wroof café in 2016 is projected to be around $350,000. Wroof café is
positioned as a dog friendly environment café which allow dog owner bring their dog
dine in the café. Due to its unique positioning strategy from other competitors,
therefore the assumption of growing 2% of market share yearly is made.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 2
1.4 The Business Potential
Wroof Cafe has the competitive advantage of running the first cafe in Melbourne to
provide a suitable environment for customers to bring their pet dogs along. It is
specifically tailored for consumers and pet dogs whereby each and every service
and products that are offered by the cafe will be specially prepared to address the
needs of each and every customer. In addition, Wroof café aims to become the first
central meeting point for dog lovers within Melbourne CBD.
In preparation to the launching of Wroof Café, the 5 founders will each form a team
to handle different tasks in the café. To ensure adequate knowledge and proper
understanding required to successfully provide a professional service, the founders
will attend dog training courses provided by certified professional trainers in Victoria
to gain knowledge on how to handle different types of dogs through understanding
dog behaviours. Besides that, 2 founding partners will each attend barista course
and latte art classes which are accredited by local coffee schools to make sure that
they are competent with the extraordinary coffee culture in Australia. Hence, it is
crucial for the founders to select the ideal coffee beans and brew to address the
needs of the local consumers to gain a strong foothold and become a dominant
player in the Foodservice industry.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 3
Aside from beverages, Wroof Café will also be providing food for both the customer
and their pet dogs. The pastries, sandwiches and pies will be sourced locally by the
award winning bakery, Bread Winner. The food supplied by Bread winners will
benefit from their premium pre packed food service and they only use the freshest
and best quality ingredients in their products. The sandwiches will be thermally
sealed in wedged container in order to maintain the freshness and safety for the
customers of Wroof café, while the other products like pastries and pie will be flow
wrapped or presented in a clear clam container. In addition, Wroof Cafe will be using
high quality coffee beans which are grounded from 100% organic Arabic beans. On
the other hand, Wroof Café will be offering 3 types of nutritious and mouth-watering
meal for the customer’s dog. Ranging from minced chicken, lamb or beef with mixed
vegetables on spiral pasta. These meals are carefully designed to meet all the
dietary requirements of all canine breeds, which is healthy and delicious. On top of
that, Wroof café will be sure to operate in a relaxing and stress free environment to
ensure that our customers have a wonderful experience.
Laurent Patisseries will be a direct competitor of Wroof Café due to the fact that they
offer a variety of fresh pastries, coffee as well as dog friendly patisseries. The
differentiating factor is that Laurent Patisseries does not serve meals for pets and
they do not allow customers to bring their pets into the café. Pet owners are only
allowed to dine at the outdoor area of the café.
Since Wroof Café will be located at Franklin Street, which is just 2 blocks away from
the Melbourne CBD area, it will greatly benefit from the market crowd that frequently
visits Queen Victoria Market as well as park goers at the Flagstaff garden. In the
morning, those people going to the market will be a great source of potential
customers where they can visit Wroof café after going to the market. Besides that,
Flagstaff garden is a place where pet owners usually walk their pets during free time
and for those who felt tired after exercising at the garden, Wroof café will be a great
place for the customers to take a break as well as giving their pets a nutritious treat.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 4
Prior to the launching of Wroof Café, the founders will be advertising through print
ads as well as social media including Instagram and Facebook in order to gain public
awareness as well as brand awareness. Besides that, fliers given out at Flagstaff
garden and Queen Victoria market will have discount vouchers attached to
encourage early adopters and with this, Wroof Café hopes to initiate word of mouth
within the community in Melbourne CBD through the professional service provided at
Wroof Café.
In the near future, Wroof Café wishes to improve and expand its business model of
providing quality food and services to both owners and pets to other states in
Australia. But before that, Wroof Café must gain a large market share within
Melbourne CBD to secure financial stability and brand image as the main driver is to
strive for high standards of services and food quality. Only then, Wroof Café will
expand to regional areas within Victoria and hopefully across Australia.

Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 7
2 The Market2.1 Industry Profile
According to Ryan (2015), the café industry is growing strongly over the past five
year due to Australian’s love for quality coffee and vibrant coffee culture. As the
rising of consumer sentiment and discretionary income, café become one of the
popular place for consumers to spend leisure time while coffee is considered as an
affordable luxury. Therefore, the industry revenue is expected to grow by 3.2% in
2015-16 that reach $5.3 billion. In the next five year through 2020-21, the industry
revenue is forecasted to increase 2.5% which around $6.0 billion. The slowdown of
industry growth is mainly due to the competitive pressure in the market such as price
competition and high quality have forced the costs up and pushed the profit down.
Australia’s coffee culture increase the demand of quality coffee and led independent
café grow at a faster rate than the coffee chains. As the robust coffee culture and
demand of quality coffee, the growing number of speciality cafés have resulted in a
high level of competition. Dan Gallo think that there is a latent demand in the café
industry due to the market is growing about 2.37% (Heffernan 2015). However, the
latent demand will dry up soon as more and more independent café enter the
market. In order to gain the market share in café industry, the main key success
factor is having a clear position in the market (Ryan 2015). An excellent
understanding toward the market allow operator respond in changing preferences
and survive in the competitive environment.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 8
According to Roy Morgan (2015), there are 63.3% of Melbourne people pay at least
one visit to a café for coffee in last 3 months. Based on our research, there are 86%
of Melbourne people pay at least one visit to a café in Melbourne CBD in a month.
The research also show that every 100 of dog owner, 73 of them will bring along
their dog while visiting café. This phenomena will sustain in the future as pet owner
consider their pets are a part of the family and they have powerful impact on pet
owners’ consumption behavior (Power 2013). Ryan (2015) suggests that consumer
will demand more fast and convenient food or beverage and dining options due to
busier lifestyle. The report also recommend that café operators can boost sales by
focusing on providing premium ingredients, gourmet café-style meals, healthy meals
and ethical consumerism.

According to IBIS World (Ryan 2015), the barrier to enter the café industry will be
low. As Wroof café is an innovation idea, there are several barriers which
encountered by Wroof Café.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 9
As all the business partners of Wroof cafe are new to food and beverage industry,
business partners will have limited knowledge on operating a cafe and handling all
types of dogs. Therefore, business partners of Wroof cafe will overcome this problem
by involving themselves in professional talk and courses to acknowledge themselves
about dogs and cafe operation.
High start-up cost will become a barrier for Wroof cafe such as renovation cost for
the store, rental, furniture, utilities and professional training for workers. However,
these can be overcome by doing price compare with a few renovation companies
and also furniture stores. By comparing prices, it would allow Wroof cafe to lower the
expenses cost price.
Furthermore, Wroof cafe will also be facing intense competition from the various
cafes and restaurants in Melbourne CBD area. Cafes in Melbourne CBD might start
to change the cafe concept to pet friendly cafe. Wroof cafe will differentiate the cafe
from other cafes by serving healthy and nutritious meals for owners and dogs with
affordable price and serving high quality coffee. Wroof cafe will also maintain good
customer relationship by communicating with customers on their visit and accepting
feedback after the visit. Besides that, promotional method will also be used by Wroof
cafe in order to strengthen the customer loyalty of the cafe.
2.3 Market Segmentation
Segment: Characteristics: Size
(annual
sales):
Location 5 km radius from Melbourne CBD 1,965,105
Age 20 – 29 (58%) 1,139,761
Target Market Segment 1: Dog Owner (59%) 672,459
Lifestyle Customers that will visit café at least once a month 578,315
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 10
Wroof Café concept is still relatively new in the market. As a result, determining the
market segmentation is slightly difficult since there is no actual secondary market
data to support the market segmentation above. Thus, in this project, primary
research will be conducted. The primary data in this project is collected from
conducting a survey around Melbourne CBD. Wroof Café will focus mainly on dog
owner and coffee lover that fits to the café’s concept.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 11
3 Sales & Marketing Plan3.1 Your Customers
Woorf Café is mainly targeting on dog owner and coffee lover that stay within 5-
kilometre radius from Melbourne CBD. This is because Wroof Café saw the
opportunity where none of the dog-friendly café within 5-kilometre radius from
Melbourne CBD offers high quality food for both human and dogs. Wroof Café
provides relaxing and stress-free environments that allow the customers and their
dogs to dine-in the café comfortably.
After conducting a survey with a sample size of 100 respondents from the age range
20 to above 50 years old, it found that 82% of the respondents would visit a café that
allowed them to dine-in with their dogs and 73% of the respondents would purchase
food for themselves and their dog if Wroof Café was to be operated in Franklin
Street, Melbourne CBD. The survey also revealed that cleanliness of the shop, price
and the service are the key factors influencing the respondent’s consumption
pattern. Therefore, Wroof Café will not only provided relaxing environment, it will also
fulfil it target customers’ needs and wants by offering affordable price and ensure
clean cafe environment. Lastly, the survey also showed that, majority of the
respondents willing to pay about AUD 6- AUD 10 (51%) for their dogs’ meal.

3.2 Value Proposition
“A perfect spot for owners and dogs”
“Wroof café” will be the first dog’s cafe to be operating in Melbourne CBD. Wroof
café aims to be associated with a relaxing and stress free environment for both dog
owners and their dogs.
Wroof café offers a third space to the dog owner to relax themselves and interact
with their dogs. Wroof café offers fresh prepared meals with no preservatives added
for customers. Besides that, dog meals are freshly prepared daily by using nutritious
ingredients. Wroof café offers high quality fresh brew coffee which is single origin
from Peru and 100% organic Arabica beans certified by “Rainforest Alliance” (Home
Barista Institude 2015).
Affordable price is also one of the selling propositions as both human and dog meals
are priced not more than 10 dollars. The survey found out that most of the customers
are willing to pay 6 to 10 dollars for the dog meals. Another value proposition will be
convenience as Wroof Cafe is located at Franklin Street which is near Flagstaff
garden and Queen Victoria Market. This would allow customers to stop by at Wroof
cafe after they walk their dogs at the garden or after the visit of Queen Victoria
Market. Furthermore, Wroof Café also does offer a social space for the owners. Dog
owners will be able to socialize with other pet lovers who visit the café.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 13
3.3 Your Product or Service
Due to the government restriction, Wroof café offer limited range of products which
include sandwiches, pastries, coffee and dog meals. All the sandwiches and pastries
will take from the supplier, Breadwinner who offer quality and hygiene products.
Then, the coffee and dog meals will be prepared by the baristas and chef. The detail
description and price range please refer appendix 5. As Wroof café allow customers
enjoy their foods and drinks with their dog in a close area, all the products will be
serve in packaging to avoid any hygiene issues. The appendix 7 show the sample of
pastry and coffee packaging. Every pastry that sold on the café will be packed in a
plastic bag to avoid any dog fur attach on the food. Then, the coffee cup will be
sealed to avoid leaking or accident pour.
In term of services, Wroof café offer a relaxing and dog friendly environment to the
customers. Through the survey, there are 66% of participants focus on the
cleanliness in the café. In order to provide a clean and comfortable environment to
the customers, the stewards will clean and sterilize the table and floor to make sure
the fur and bacteria are cleared. Furthermore, the window will be opened and air
refresher will be placed in the café to ensure the air fresh and not smelly. In order to
provide excellent services, all the employees have to accept the training in serving
customers and dogs. Moreover, the blankets, carpets, toys will be provided to make
dog feel comfortable to stay in the café. All the stewards are willing to assist the
customers if they have any enquiry and requirement.
Based on the primary and secondary research, Melbourne CBD do not have any
café that allow dog dine in with their owner. The research show that the potential
customers have the habit in bringing their dog to the café and have the intention to
bring their dog along while visiting café. However, only few customers know that
certain café allow them to dine outside with their dog. This innovation idea offer an
ideal place for customers and their dog to enjoy their meals. Customers will no
longer face the difficulties in searching a café when they walk with their dog.
Project Initiation Document <Wroof Cafe> Page 14
Wroof café will increase the product range as the business growth. In term of human
menu, more selection will be offered such as ice coffee, cakes and increase the type
flavor of pastries. As mention in industry overview, customers will focus on healthy
lifestyle in the future. Therefore, Wroof café will ensure the supplier produces the
sandwich and pastry daily by using the fresh and healthy ingredients. On the other
hand, Wroof café will offer more dog menu by adding the choice of meat such as,
salmon and duck. Some treats will be offered to cater the customers who demand
fast and convenient food.
Currently there are plenty of independent café in the Melbourne CBD. They operate
in different styles which offer different environment, foods and beverages. However,
there do not have any café allow customers to dine in with their dog. Although there
are few café allow customers to dine outside the café with their dog, dog owners do
not familiar them. Wroof café offer dog owner a relaxing environment for customers
and dog to dine in.
The new product and service development of Wroof Café is currently at business
analysis stage. Appendix 5 shows that the customer survey result and feedback
toward the concept of Wroof Café. All the estimated cost, sales and profitability are
showed in Appendix 4. Before introducing Wroof Café into the market, the
management need to develop product prototype and test it in the market.
Storyboards or video will be built to visualize the service idea and explain the idea
(refer appendix 8). Then, the feedback will take into consideration and amendment
will be taken.

assist the customers if customers have any enquiry or requirement. Some of the
blankets, carpets, toys, plastic bags (pick up the excrement) are prepared for any
contingency needs.
As all the sandwiches and pastries are supplied, Wroof Café has a supplier

7 Structure and Management7.1 Organisational Structure
The café is owned by 5 partner and each partner hold the respective role as shown
in the organisational chart above. Instead of just holding a management role, each of
everyone will work on field to serve the customers. Through this management model,
it may help the café reduce the cost in human resource and allow each of the
partners have in depth understanding toward the customers. Due to the unforeseen
circumstances such as peak season, two part timer will be employed as steward or
cleaner.
As the business growth, the business is going to develop another Wroof café branch
in other suburb to reduce the customer traffic. Therefore, the number of staff will
increase and the 5 partners will be redistributed in both location. Assuming that
another branch has the same size with the current shop, there need 3 more barista
and 2 more steward to be in charge in both shops. The organizational chart will
change as diagram below:

and get some ideas, tips and advices from their sharing.
On the other hand, the team lack of knowledge about dog as all of the partners are graduated from Bachelor of Business. Therefore,
every partners have to receive training by studying the Pet Technician Certificate. This certificate allow the team gain a deep
