Vision Statement

together with your friends and staying as long as you want. We are a fun, edgy, high-energy and easy going
restaurant; much like the personalities of our guests.

Mission Statement
Buffalo Wild Wings commits to the following:

        Buffalo Wild Wing's mission is to provide innovative, practical and top-quality products that are reasonable yet
satisfying. We believe our first responsibility is the customer who visits our restaurant. Our strong financial position will

Company Overview

       Buffalo Wild Wings will be successful in Fairmont due to the lack of sports bar within the town. Seeing
how the median age is 41, we really don’t have a fashionable place for a quick burger and a sit-down sports bar.
I feel there is a great demand. There are two different target markets: High school kids and middle aged adults;
while the middle aged adults are not getting represented. With having such a great atmosphere, it’ll be great get-
together location.

Business Description

       Our menu is better than most. We offer 14 signature sauces; from regular to blazing hot. Also serve
pizzas, burgers, wings, and potato wedges/French fries. For soft drinks, Buffalo Wild Wings serves Coca-Cola
products. We know that as a company, we need to have incentives for people to come in. Monday’s $.75 off all
23oz draft beer, Tuesday’s $.35 Wings, Wednesday’s $.50 legs, Thursday’s $.50 boneless wings. I feel with a
very diverse menu, there is something for everyone.

Location

        Center Creek Drive Lot 1, Block 3 Fairmont MN, 56031. With my location laying right on Highway 15,
we’re only seconds from the interstate. Highway 15 has roughly 1,100 cars that drive by daily; while another
1300 drive along Interstate 90. Not only will you get the regular town traffic, you’d also benefit from the
Interstate.

        Lot size is 59,475 square feet for $149,000. The land is undeveloped. There is ample room for parking,
and a building size of 40,000 square feet. Location is very easy to find, very quick in and out, and in a low
crime rate of town. Semis, such as delivery trucks, will have an easy experience having the loading dock on a
non-busy road.

                                                                           Picture from MapQuest December 3, 2011

Market Analysis
Customer Profile

       While using the ReferenceUSA database, I found the following characteristics to be true about my target
market:

              Demographic                                     Psychographic

             Income Range: $20,000-$60,000
                                                                    Charitable Donors

                                                                      Internet user
             Living within the community or
                    surrounding area                                   Pet Owners
                     Interstate traffic                         Interest in current events

There are over 600 company-owned and franchised Buffalo Wild Wings restaurants in 41 states. Within the
next five years they are hoping to go international.
From the survey I took on sric-bi.com, my target market falls under the categories of Experienced/Striver. My
customers need to experience life; they are willing to try new things. Reasons for coming out to Buffalo Wild
Wings would to celebrate a win for the local team, going out on a date, going out for a drink with friends, or just
enjoying a well meal.

Competitors

    McDonalds                Subway               Green Mill             Jakes Pizza        Chinese Restaurant

    Taco Johns          Godfathers Pizza           Pizza Hut         Tami’s on the Ave           El Agave

    Burger King              Arby’s              Dairy Queen            Channel Inn          Ranch Restaurant

I feel there are only two real competitors; Tami’s on the Ave and Channel Inn. They are about the only
businesses in our industry that brings people together in the bar scene. However, with our promotions we will
have their business. Prices will be about the same, and our target market is also very identical.

Trade Area

My customers will live, work, and dine within a 20 mile radius of where they live. We would receive our food
from US Food Service Inc., located in Plymouth Minnesota. US Foodservice is the tenth largest-privately
owned company in America. Another wholesaler we would do business with is Sysco, closet location being in
St. Paul Minnesota. Sysco is the largest marketer and distributor of food service products in North America.

From the 2010 Census, there were 10,666 people living in Fairmont. Females make up 47%, and males make up
53% of the population. Median Age is 35. On average it only takes five to nine minutes for 2000 people to drive
to work. Fairmont is a small town, with lots of people.

Luke Werner is in charge of the company, has the apparent authority of Buffalo Wild Wings. Works with
outsiders to make sure the business is running smoothly. General Manager also takes care of any legal issues
that may occur, and approves all purchases.

Matt Templin and Ryan Ettesvold are in charge while Luke Werner is out. If you have an issue that needs
attention right away, you work it out with these two. Shift managers have implied authority. Work at increasing
customer relations, promotional ideas, and cleanliness of the restaurant.

Amanda Peterson is in charge of two or three people, depending on the staffing needs. She makes sure the
guests are seated within a reasonable time. Guests see a smile and are greeted as soon as they walk in the door.
Tables must be bussed, silverware at tables, and guests must get thanked for coming in.

Kristina Miller is in charge of purchasing necessary liquor, glasses, and the fountain pop. Bartender Manager
deals with all the liquor sales; also holds implied authority.

Jayme Strauser is charge of all food ordering from vendors, sanitary needs, and equipment purchases. Kitchen
Manager holds implied authority. Both General Manager and Kitchen Manager will get together and look at
resumes together.

*Additional managers will be hired as we need them.

All managers will work with the General Manager for the best of the company. If someone acts unethically,
there will be consequences. All employees will sign an Employee Agreement, stating you cannot work for
another food establishment at the current time of your employment at Buffalo Wild Wings.
