I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Hyperion Mobile Kusina serves a concessionary catering menu dishes
inspired by different cuisines both locally and internationally. Operating hours will
be from: 06:30AM-04:00 PM, 7 times week. Dishes will be served from breakfast to
lunch and in between AM/P snacks only. The primary targets which are include
government, city/civil workers while students from grade school to college students
are part of the secondary market. The business will be located right in the
booming, rapidly developing city of Marikina.
Financial success is important and this can be achieved by offering high
quality service and food with a unique twist. With an initial capitalization of P744,
000, the business can generate to an estimated P250,000 and provide 6.9% net
profits by the end of the year. In the sales projection of the business, it would
exactly take at least 3 years for any return of investment will be applicable.
II. PROJECT CONCEPTUALIZATION
A. Concept Development
a. Menu
The name Hyperion, derived from Greek mythology, is one of the 12 titans
and considered as the master of light. In relation of this to the business, it aims to
be the master pioneer of its kind here in Marikina specifically as this kind of
nature of cafeteria service is still not well known to the market.
The name also is inspired by the Space Age wherein the world is exposed
to a new and different perspective of the universe. This is the age of explorationwhich is also interrelated to discovery and thus, innovation. The researchers aim
to show and expose our target markets here in Marikina an innovative way of
serving cafeteria style of service.

Figure 2.1 Logo
The logo above consists of a cartoon version of the mobile food truck
resembling that of a rocket ship with a blue vapour trail-like comets tail
symbolizing the business mobility. The comet's tail emphasizes the quick service
the mobile kusina aims to give its customers. The researchers chose bright colors
such as red, blue and yellow. Basically red and yellow are colors which bring out
appetite of a person who sees it, this is a proven fact based on gastronomic
researches.
The menu that the Mobile Kusina offers is of the cafeteria type adapting a
unique style of packed meals from Japan called Bento. Its theme, the Bento, is a
single portion takeout or packed meal common on traditional Japanese cuisine.
Placed in disposable box or rectangular boxes depending on what dish it would be.
Bento meals are packed in such a manner that the food inside is arranged
creatively for the purpose of entertaining those who would eat them. As for the
business is concerned, Bento meals are arranged in a way that the customers
would have ease of eating the food as it would be more organized and compacted.
Cycle type menu is still what the business use, the traditional menu style
used by cafeterias. The menu comprises of the same set of menu daily and only
-
7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck

changes on a weekly basis. This kind of menu is common for schools, hospitals
and offices, where the number of choices must be kept to a minimal. The
researchers limit its menu offerings by having only one of the following: beef,
chicken, pork, and fish dish per breakfast and lunch menu of the weekly cycle,
making it a total of four menu choices to choose from. Costing would be of greater
advantage for the business as it would be easier on a day to day basis. The crew
could use a fixed report scheduling for the goods sold as well as the beginning and
ending inventories. Through this type of service, getting stocks from suppliers
would not be much of a problem since for the rest of the days of the week the
suppliers will be expected to give the business the exact same items needed as for
the week. Though, customer satisfaction rates will most likely tend to decrease as
the days would pass due to lack of change in the menu setting. Cycle menu
provides the crew valuable time for getting used to preparing the Bento dishes for
the whole week or so. The business currently has a four-week cycle menu
prepared. And at the end of the four-week cycle, the menus are then repeated.
Found on the table is the complete set of breakfast starting from lunch, AM and
PM snack meals for the menu of the four-week cycle:

Figure 2.2 Menu
The whole menu is comprised of mixed international cuisines both locally
and internationally that is to give our target market an opportunity to experience
each one without the need to go to any fancy restaurants. The name of the dish
has given a unique twist that is somewhat relevant to the space theme that the
business is proposing to give it more of a creative and innovative approach in
catering the dish.
Breakfast meals are expected to be served around 06:30 AM to 09:00 AM
which is usually the time workers are on their way to their jobs. AM snacks are
expected to be served around 09:00 AM to 10:30 AM. This is the time wherein
grade school to high school students takes their recess breaks. Lunch meals are
expected to be served at around 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM which is the usual time
range for breaks here in the Philippines. The business would want to maximize
-

profit gain and sales through this meal break that is why lunch is served 2 hours.
PM snacks to be served at 2:30 PM to 4:00 PM.
b. Market
Strategically located right in the middle of the City Hall and City Jail of
Marikina, the Mobile Kusina targets mostly its city government and district office
workers, city/civil workers and laborers. The menu offered is specifically tailored,
adapted and adjusted to the needs of the workers, to cater to them food that
would satisfy their appetite. There are a lot of laborers and city workers along the
target location. One which can be classified as a laborer could be the tricycle
drivers by the side of the city hall. Their work is usually on-the-go and always
unscheduled, similar to taxi drivers job, thus, catering them with packed meals is
the best strategy of the business as well to provide them the meals they want
and when duty calls. It will not be that of a problem finishing their meal as they
could just pack it again and deal with it later. With the target location being near a
city jail, people who would be visiting someone who are in jail can also buy
Mobile Kusinas products in which the visitor can give to them as a sort of
pasalubong, a traditional Filipino custom, served always fresh and packed with
nutrients.
The secondary target market includes students, specifically grade school
(grades 1-7), high school (from 1st-4
thyear) and college students (from 1
st-4
th
year). The Mobile Kusina is situated also near a number of public schools and
colleges that would most likely be high potential markets of the business
especially during break and dismissal times. The business offers a number of
selections of AM and PM snacks considering that students of ages 6-17,according to the survey conducted by the researchers, usually prefer buying
snacks rather than full rice meals. Teenagers, in relation to the food industry,
prefer buying goods which can be eaten right away with ease where they would
usually consume while walking or being with their social companions. It is also of
great importance to provide and offer students service and food as its age group
-
7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck
17/62
17
is the second largest population, next to the working class with ages 30-50, that
can be a great contributor for the sustainability of the business.
The primary purpose of this study is to cater commissary service
also, to offer an alternative cafeteria experience and to give a different
perspective of the traditional setting of cafeteria. The business aims optimize
money usage and budget for customers and at the same time providing them
with quality food and exceptional service.
c. Money
The initial capital used for starting up the Mobile Kusina is P670, 000. Themajor contributor in the capital is the mobile food truck which costs P520, 000,
customized specifically for the business. Exactly P27696 is needed for the
business permits, and P76675 for the furniture, tools and equipments and lastly,
marketing costs P5217. Considering the opening week of the business, P38733
is added in the initial capital. Refer to the Initial Capitalizations table under the
appendix for a more detailed breakdown.
d. Management
The researchers agreed to have a sole proprietorship over the business.
Partnership involves all the members, but only for one main account and all the
other members acting out as shareholders. Each member has equal power and
authority in the business same as the other. Fewer burdens maintaining the
business is one of the great advantages of having a partnership over the
business. This may also give a leeway in maximizing the growth potential of the
mobile food truck. The researchers decided this type of management for it is stilla small scale, new and uprising business comprising of 8 members, still open for
greater improvement and change.

III. Method
This study was conducted as part of idealizing a mobile food truck
establishment to the market for the intention of providing and engaging
concessionary services to industrialized offices both public and private sectors.
The focus of this study was primarily on gathering information which can be a
useful tool for progress and development and also sustainability. Descriptive and
Observational method of research were used in this study. Photos were also
taken on the layout and the physical appearance of the proposed location for the
establishment.
The original concept of the business is to have different locations for different
time frames but then decided to stick to only one location, directly beside the
Marikina City hall. It is the perfect and ideal location for the business as the
primary purpose of the business is to serve traditional lunch fare, and act as the
concessionaire for the government office.
The researchers are getting the business main supplies and ingredientsneeded from the nearest affordable market in Marikina, this will help the
employees of the food truck to prepare the food and all necessary tools and
equipments for the operation.
Listed on the next page are the suppliers that the researchers made an
agreement with to provide the business with the products, ingredients and all
other necessary items that are needed to run the production of the business:

Marikina City Public Market is to be considered the central business
trading center for the establishment.
DCresto Trading Corporation
61 J. Changyungko St., Marikina Subd.
Contatct Details: (02) 646-6397/98
Rice grain
DCresto Trading Corp is located very near the location of the businessas it would be of much ease to get rice grain supplies.
B. Site Identification
a. Location
The researchers had chosen the location mainly because Marikina, also
known as the Shoe Capital of the Philippines, is one of the greater uprising and
growing city not only in Metro Manila but throughout the country. Also, the city is
considered one of the most populous, multi-awarded metropolitan cities in the
world. The researchers took this as a great opportunity in establishing the
proposed mobile food truck business. Lauded for its vibrant business life, Sta.
Elena is where the proposed business would be. This is strategically located right
in the middle of the Marikina City Hall and Bureau of Jail and Penology along Mc
Donalds Avenue corner Mayor Juan Changyungco Street also recognized as
the center point of marketing and exchange and all other business related
industries of the city.

The figures above represents the 360 degree view from the actual site,
covering a very wide area around the city hall and justice hall and visibility to the
public.
Marikina is noted as one of tourism and cultural hub in Metro Manila.
Many places in the metro are now recognized for its eco-friendly points, balance
of industry, people and nature, as the Mobile Kusina highly supports movements
to promote a greener and cleaner environment. Basically, the city itself has
plenty of room for development that would be of greater advantage to the
business. Marikinas topography is generally characterized by flat terrain, with
mildly sloping portion. These topographic characteristics have rendered the city
to be suitable for urban settlements and establishments. Demographically
speaking at present, the number of barangays in Marikina is 16 in total, upon
which at least 2 of the largest are covered by the business namely, Santo Nino
and San Roque.
Boundaries for the location of the establishment would only cover the
municipality of San Mateo, Rizal to the Northern, Pasig City or Municipality of
Cainta to the Southern, Antipolo and Quezon City both on the Eastern and
Western sides respectively. In summary, the jurisdiction of the business is only
limited to the city of Marikina itself.
b. Zoning Requirements
Marikina city Planning and Development office is responsible for
coordinating the overall growth and physical development of the city. In addition
to preparing long range plans for the citys future growth, the office also oversees
the review of development applications such as zoning map amendments and
commercial and industrial development. Its spearheaded the completion of the
exhibit hall, which provide an easy reference for tourists, visitors, businessmen,
prospective investors, as well as Marikina residents to learn about the citys
transformation.
-
7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck

Services offered of the office that would be beneficial to the business
would be listed below:
Information or reference materials to researchers, investors, visitors, and
others, as well as access to exhibits that depict Marikinas past, present,
and future scenarios, e.g., Socio-economic profile, development plans,
zoning ordinances and comprehensive land use plan.
To develop or package project proposals, project studies, project briefing
manuals, et. Al., for the city government.
c. Drainage and Sewerage Hook-up
Due to the uniqueness of the business as being mobileS, it does notsupport any drainage and sewerage hook-ups.
III. MARKET ANALYSIS
A. Demographic Data
The researchers gathered the present total population in the City of
Marikina 513,371. Every year there is an increase in population of 1.14 % growth
rate. Marikina has exactly 16 Barangays, and the most populated is Barangay
Sta. Elena.
a. Population Growth
-
7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck
25/62
25
Figure 3.1
The research based the current year population size in the formula to
2012 since it is only the 1st quarter of the current year 2013. Thru which the
population increases by 1.14% annually. Population size will be affecting the
overall target market and sales projection of the business.
a. Household Size
-
7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck
26/62
26
Figure 3.2
Household size capacity of the target barangay is less than 2,000 because
primary offices and business centers are located in the barangay itself. So the
primary population Sta. Elena has comprises mostly of employees and all other
work-related occupancies.
b. Age

Figure 3.3 Projected Population by Age Group and by Sex
The table above shows the overall age population of Marikina.
B. Traffic Pattern
a. Accessibility
The food establishment is very accessible for all government offices,
hospitals, and landmarks nearby. The researchers set their food establishment in
the center of the Marikina City Hall which is the landmark of Marikina City. The
City is 20 kilometers from Metro Manila. From Quezon City, it can be accessed
via the Aurora Boulevard. Public transportation like jeepneys and air-conditioned
FX has terminals located at Cubao and in Katipunan Avenue. Inter-citys public
transportation is provided by tricycles, shuttles and jeepneys. These are the most
popular form of transportation within the city.

7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck
28/62

a. Street Routings
The streets where the food mobile is located is near tricycle and jeepney
terminal where public transportation pass by or directly taking the route near the
location. The location of the Mobile Kusina is just a block away from the City Hall,
Justice Hall, Marikina Sports Center where the target market is just a few steps
away from the place. There are various treet routings going to the site: by private
vehicles, customers could take Mayor Gil Fernando Ave going to Sumulong hi-
way using the sports park as their landmark which is near the site; by tricycles,
customers could already direct or instruct the drivers the exact location or just by
stopping right in front of the city hall or justice hall; lastly, by jeepneys or mega
taxis (FX) , customers could ride an SSS village route when going from from
Cubao, Katipunan or Aurora Boulevard then drop by directly in front of the sports
park where customers would walk a short distance going to the city hall, which is
very visible from the drop-off point.
b. Visibility
The Mobile Kusina is situated right in the middle of the city hall and city
jail. Therefore, the business is very visible to people from all sides. There are no
other obstructions of view from the sites point of view, though he site location is
ideally located on a parking lot where in if it is full, it could cause a little
obstruction of view depending on the number of cars parked in the lot. The
location can only be accessed by mostly private vehicles and tricycles. Jeepneys
and mega taxis is a short walking distance away from the site. The table below
shows a 2-km radius road map the site has cover and ease of accessibility on.

C. General Evaluation
a. Climate
Marikina features a tropical monsoon climate. The city lies entirely within
the tropics. However, humidity levels are usually very high which makes it feelwarmer. It has a distinct, relatively short dry season from January to May, and a
relatively lengthy wet season from June up to December. This is due because
Marikina is a valley composing of mountains on the sides and it is near Marikina
river. Strong rains are of great treat to the city itself as the location becomes
easily flooded especially when continuous rain falls. Depending on the degree of
rainfall, business may or may not hold if it cannot really be helped.

c. Transportation
Public transportation within the city, like in most of the urban areas, it is
facilitated mostly using inexpensive jeepneys and buses. Tricycles are the usual
transportation used for short distances. Inter-citys public transportation is
provided by tricycles, shuttles and jeepneys. Tricycles and jeepneys are the
popular form of transportation within the city since landmarks are close to each
other.
d. Utilities
i. Water supply
For the water supply, Manila Water is the citys supplierof running clear
water. Manila Water is Marikinas top water supplier. It had helped the city by
creating new water lines for each barangays or other commercial entities in
Marikina.
ii. Fuel for the food truck and gas for cooking
For the fuel, the researchers chose Power Gas as suppliers. For the LPG,
the researchers chose Petron Gasul since it is most trusted among household

Listed on the table above are the food establishments located near the
Mobile Kusina. Jollibee and McDonalds food chain is the most popular food
establishment nearest to the location of the business. These food chains were
already internationally renowned in the food chain industry. The researchers can
consider them as the biggest competitor.They also serve a variety of value meals
like french fries, burgers and chickens. But they are still considered as an indirectcompetitor because they do not share the same style of business compared to
the mobile food truck. Tres Pares and Kusina ni kambal can be considered as
another possible threat for the food truck because the researchers can classify
them as a direct competitor, they share the same food style of business as the
mobile food truck and they also served varieties of food like beef and rice
products.

The schools Marikina Polytechnic College and International Electronics and
Technical Institute are the most nearest school to the food establishment. The
advantage of being nearest to food business is to generate more people to
patronize the mobile food truck. But the disadvantages are the researchers can
consider the schools nearest to the mobile food truck as a direct competitor
because the school has its own cafeteria. The students can purchase food products
from their own cafeteria because it is within the premises.

they need to attend to their patients needs and the Mobile Kusina can give them
fast and accurate service. For the visitors they can make use the food products
as pasalubong for their relatives confined in the hospital.
Table vi. Churches

demand generator because every after the Sunday mass they can dine in the
Mobile Kusina. Most passer bys coming from these churches will pass by near
the moving Mobile Kusina. All the church-goers who pass by the moving food

truck are mostly group of families. It can attract them whenever they pass by the
food truck after hearing mass
Table vii. Drugstores
These drugstores scattered around the Mobile Kusina can become one of
the least demand generators from the moving food truck. All the employees can
have their own food with them.
The researchers can consider the transportation segment as the
establishments greatest demand generator because the terminals are very near
the Mobile Kusina. The advantage of the food establishment is they serve
packed lunch which is very appropriate for the drivers convenience of eating.

There are many government agencies around the vicinity of the food
establishment. The advantage of these government agencies can become a
great demand generator for the Mobile Kusina. It is only a walking distance away
from these government agencies and they can receive their packaged meal fast.
With all these information at hand, the preparation of the business will be
made easier through the eyes of the researchers - as to know what to expect for
the potential markets would be like, the advantages and disadvantages of the
business to the market, as well as the possible competitors the business would
have.

a. Marketing Strategies
The researchers carefully set plans for strategic marketing for Hyperion
Mobile Kusina to ensure its success for the long runtime of business. The heart
of every business depends on the customer on how the company promotes and
advertise to the public their products and services and how the business will gain
the customers trust and loyalty. The researchers came up with different
marketing strategies suited for the business.
Since the business is a Mobile Kusina, the researchers make use of its full
strength and opportunity to attract the public to buy the products. Marketing
strategies of the researchers are as follows:
Internet
Newspaper ads/ Flyers
Through advertising online, it is advisable to campaign online if your
business is still new. Campaigns through Facebook, Twitterand other websites
are the priority of the business. Providing the website with pictures, menus,
information and Services offered. In this way the customers can receive every
detail of your company and possibly attract them even without seeing the
company in person. No money is spent in this kind of advertisement, which is
-

good for new business with low funds for promotions .Maximizing the use of
website allows the business to spread and become visible to the public.
A seasonal rotation of promotions of flyers is also one factor the
researchers came upon to update the market from time to time.
IV. FINANCIAL COMPONENTS
A. Pro-forma Statement
a. Income Statement
For the Mobile Kusina, the sales revenue has a steady value rate of 89.29%
which shows that the gross sales and net sales are stable And like any other
business the first year is the struggling year, it is shown on the data that the first
year is a decline but it would fluctuate and the business would show increase for
our income.
B. Initial Capitalization
a. Breakdown for the initial captialization

A Volkswagen Kombi Microbus 1987 model is the choice of van due to its
high convertibility aspects. The microbus is not the cheapest the business can
choose, but it is economically justified in comparison to a new commercial
vehicle. The overall dimensions are indicated into the quotation the researchers
got from Autoveyor Company, stating that the microbus is intended to be sold asone-lot meaning the necessary equipments are included and the expenses are
covered as a whole. (refer to the appendix for the quotation). The disadvantage
of the model of the microbus is maintenance. The availability of the parts is
limited and this is due to the out-datedness of the model.

700mm from the back is specifically designed to be an extendable service table
in which customers could also dine. At the same time, either the table is
extended or not, the space will be used as an additional room for storing mostly
dried goods and ingredients. At the end of the day, the space is then cleared for
the table to be brought back inside the truck. The picture below

kusina. The breakdown of the appliances is inscribed explicitly on the quotations
which the researchers could use as the reference.
III. Acoustics

any Volkswagen car.
IV. Motif

truck especially when under direct sunlight. Its contrasting color to the sunlight
will give it more emphasis as it stands out
-

V. Furniture and fixture
Furniture in the Mobile Kusina is minimal because most of the allottedspace is for the equipments and appliances needed for the operation. The table
and chairs that are used are portable so it takes less space for storage and less
time for preparation.
VI. Lighting
Lighting is not given much importance as for the operating hours are from
the morning until afternoon only. The sunlight or daylight is the pirimary source of
lighting of the mobile kusina. Exceptions would be if the climate is raining or
having a nimbus clouds wherein visibility and sunlight is reduced.
VII. Decibels
The sound produced by the mobile kusina is very minimal. The engines,
when operating hours, is turned off and the only sound produced will be basically
the searing of the stoves when cooking.
VIII. Uniforms
The uniform is a polo shirt that gives an impression of a more presentable
service to the costumers. It is colored white which symbolizes neatness. It has
black stripe with the business name printed on it which symbolizes uniqueness
among other business around the area and definitely stands out with other
establishments. The logo is located at the back of the shirt and name printed on
-
7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck
51/62
51
the left side of the polo shirt. It comes with a black cap printed with logo, and long
apron for the kitchen staffs and short apron for the service staff. The researchers
have chosen a polo shirt instead of a regular shirt because the researchers
wanted their target market to notice the staffs cleanliness and neatness and the
business as a formal eating establishment.
Apron, Pants and clogs protection form dirt and stains caused by food
preparation and cooking. It is also used for sanitation purposes against food
contamination. The importance of using the apron is to protect the uniform of the
crew from food spillage like sauces, oil and the like, also to avoid physical
contamination to the food and to observe safety to the service crew. The use of
black pants and kitchen clogs as a standard uniform for the crew is to observe
safety in the kitchen while doing multiple tasks. Like working inside the kitchen,
the use for kitchen clogs is to avoid accidents like slipping. As well as using a
black pants to avoid cuts, insect bites and bruises.
The cap represents as a protection of the head to avoid physical contaminants to
the food like hair and parasites.
Relevance of the uniform to the business the relevance of uniformity to
the business is to promote cleanliness and neatness when it comes to food
service. It also shows that uniformity reflects on how serious the business is
when it comes to sanitation and operation.
C. Floor Plan
The Mobile Kusina Floor plan indicates all the appliance, tools and
equipment that would be placed inside the Mobile Kusina. It shows how much
space the Mobile Kusina has inside for the researchers will have an idea on what
type of materials to be used. It also gives an idea to the researchers on how
-
7/29/2019 Mobile Cuisine / Food Truck
52/62
52
much space is allotted on every tools and equipment is used. It gives the
researchers the opportunity to experiment on the arrangement and placement of
the equipment on the truck. The floor can be a reference for the researchers in
the near future for their placement of the equipment.

The researchers planned to establish the mobile kusina around the vicinity
of Marikina, this step would help not only the researchers but also the people
residing within the area. The mobile kusina's target market are the people around
marikina consisting of employees, students and the people living there thus
making the mobile kusina support the essential needs of that target market.
Hyperion mobile kusina supports environment friendly materials and non-
hazardous methods which would help maintain the cleanliness of Marikina and to
set an example for other food establishments within the area. Hyperion mobile
kusina's staff and employees are trained to be filled with Filipino culture of
courtesy partnered with respect towards other people, customer or non
customer, staff are also trained to bring about excellent and quality service to
attract customers and in return customers would carry out vocal advertisement
for Hyperion mobile kusina. Another is we serve food bento style or packed food
style so that our customers particularly the employees and student would be able
to use their short time for eating, the idea is to give them less hassle due to their
busy schedule. Still, Hyperion mobile kusina accommodates customer who wants
to eat beside the establishment we provide chairs and tables for them intended to
provide them time to talk with their friends while they eat.
