The initial investment required is US$ 61,390.00 which is going to be funded from the owner’s capital and a bank loan. Burbuchá kioks has a positive Net Present Value which indicates that the project is feasible. Burbuchá expects to expand to other markets in a period of 3 to 5 years through the franchise system.

An initial investment of $28,000 is required to start the business and our initial capital investment is of $50,000 funded by two business partners. Based on the financial section, starting from year 2 we will start to see our Return on Investment (ROI).

On the other hand, our marketing know-how and assorted flavors targeted to the non-Asian Panamanians will be a solution to this challenge and become leaders in the industry.
