in the menu of your restaurant. This is
especially important when you have a number of
seafood restaurants competing in a locality. For
instance, you may offer to sell sushi only or
some standard fish items offered in general
restaurants.

required to open a restaurant. Calculate the
maximum expenses you will incur monthly and
yearly for things like, utilities, equipment,
staff salaries, ingredients and its transports,
building rent, etc. Be generous in your
calculations even to add some unexpected expenses
you may incur like emergencies. Point is to

Secure Funding Or Loans
It is quite normal that first time restaurateurs
do not have enough finance for start-up and have
it operating for initial years without profit.
Several options appear including a bank loan. If
loans do not come by then you can ask family or
friends to help you in some way or other.

Legalize Your Business
Complete your business documentation like getting
a liquor license, food handler and occupational
safety permits, sales tax permit, etc. before you
open the doors of your restaurant. Contact the
concerned departments and get these
correspondences clear as soon as possible.

Contact With Fisheries
Contact the nearest commercial fisheries
department who will purchase your seafood. It
gets difficult and expensive to find a supplier
if your restaurant is located in a non-coastal
area. In these cases you have to approach
international or suppliers from the neighboring
states. Be careful that food quality from these
suppliers meets the health and safety standards
of your local state.
9
Select A Nice Venue
Selecting a great venue for your restaurant means
a place where you can reach the heaviest traffic
and people walking. Opening near shopping malls
are the best choices to expose yourself in busy
public. Other acceptable options can be to open
near recreational lakes, beach fronts, water and
amusements parks, etc. where people of all age
groups can be targeted.
