Problem and Its Background
A. Introduction
The hospitality industry covers a wide range of organizations offering food service and accommodation. It consists of a broad category of fields within the service industry that includes lodging, restaurants, event planning, theme parks, transportation, cruise line and additional fields within the tourism industry. The hospitality industry is one that is primarily focused on customer satisfaction. For the most part, it is built on leisure or is luxury-based, as opposed to meeting basic needs. It is said to be one of the fastest growing industry which is focusing on providing service to customers in a friendly, warm and hospitable way.
Nowadays, food and beverage is one of the most successful fields in hospitality industry. The changing lifestyle and habits of modern people in terms of eating had opened it into innovation of modern food and beverage services. That’s the reason why the group proposed this study of establishing a modern type of coffee shop which will be introduce later on.
Coffee is said to be oldest and very common kind of drink to start a day. The researchers of this study will innovate the creation of coffee into a modern style and unusual kind of service. It will be introduced in the market by its unique taste and delightful appearance. The equipment and the ambiance of the coffee shop will make the target market to be interested in drinking coffee.
A feasibility study is a preliminary study undertaken before the real work of a project starts to ascertain the likelihood of the project's success. It is an analysis of possible alternative solutions to a problem and a recommendation on the best alternative. It, for example, can decide whether an order processing be carried out by a new system more efficiently than the
previous one.
B. Background of Study
This study aimed to consider the program of establishing a coffee shop business in Metro Gate Silang, Cavite.
The Moshi-Moshi Café is a business that is partnership form and the concept of this coffee shop is influence by Japanese anime, manga comic strip, book, and movie or video game characters. Service crews will dress up as Japanese anime, manga and video game characters. The intention of this research is to provide results that could be useful assessing the establishment of the said coffee shop in Cavite. Data would be gathered through interviews, survey, questionnaires, observation and experiments that will determine if the proposed business is feasible in the location.
C. Statement of the Problem
1. Marketing Aspects
Being located in an open area, how will the business attract customers?
Being a café with an anime theme, how will it attract potential customers who are not familiar with the concept?
2. Technical Aspects
How will the establishment obtain the freshness and availability of the raw material?
How will it maintain the cleanliness and sanitation of the establishment?
3. Financial Aspects
Does it have enough money to fund every necessary expense that the business will require?
With the current economic down turn, how can you maximize the use of all available resources and how can you make sure that everything is allocated properly?
4. Socio- Economic Aspects
What would be the impact to society?
How it can be afforded by the simple customer?
5. Organizational and Management Aspects
Since the business is not a typical café, do you require your potential employees to be at least familiar on the concept that you have?
What kind of management is the most appropriate for the kind of business concept?
C. Objective of the Study

Chapter II
Concept Frame Work
A. Review and Related Literature
A Moshi-Moshi Café is an establishment which primarily serves prepared coffee or other hot beverages. It shares some of the characteristics of a bar, and some of the characteristics of a restaurant, but it is different from a cafeteria. As the name suggests, coffee houses focus on providing coffee and tea as well as light snacks. Many coffee houses in the Middle East, and in West Asian immigrant districts in the Western world, offer shisha, flavored tobacco smoked through a hookah.
From a cultural standpoint, coffeehouses largely serve as centers of social interaction. The coffeehouse provides social members with a place to congregate, talk, write, read, entertain one another, or pass the time, whether individually or in small groups.
Filipinos are avid coffee drinkers. They flock coffee shops for chatting, meeting new people, enjoying the scenery and drinking a good cup of coffee. Coffee shops are not just stores, but emblems of a good coffee experience. Amidst the many coffee shops all over the country, here are the top ten Philippine coffee shops that have served as a favorite hangout and coffee drinking place for Filipinos.
Starbucks
In Metro Manila alone, Starbucks has about 135 branches and continues to grow stronger as the dominating coffee shop in the country. They have become a household name and have experienced a boom that remains to be the standard for most of the other coffee shops that followed after their success.
Gloria Jean’s
Personalized service, fun coffee flavors and strategic locations (as one of the awarded foreign franchises in the country) make Gloria Jean’s stay at the top of its game as one of the country’s best coffee shops. The store atmosphere is also excellent and they maintain a loyal following. The Chocolate Macadamia Coffee is a local favorite.
Figaro
This Philippine based company is known for keeping up with their customers, more recently for their health conscious market. They are able to be at par with other foreign coffee shop franchises and maintain their name as one of the respected coffee shops in the Philippines.
Bo’s Coffee
Bo’s Coffee Club is very high end coffee shop that has services and product tailored to suit the needs of high society coffee drinkers. They maintain excellent service and product done in good taste, literally and figuratively.
Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf
Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf has a very clean ambience, innovative coffee mixes and really good customer service. This makes them one of the frequented places for coffee and chilling out. Flavorful, reasonably priced and scenic, the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf stores continue to draw in the coffee-loving crowds.
Seattle’s Best Coffee
The smooth taste of Seattle’s Best Coffee has appealed to Filipino taste buds. Their smooth and flavor-filled coffees are often partnered with equally sumptuous meals that engage the taste buds. Their pastries and pasta are equally delicious and keeps customers coming back for more.
Café de Lipa
It started out as a local café in Batangas that catered to its customers who already have a heritage and liking for the famous” kapeng barako”. After almost two years of successful business in the local branch, they branched out to the mainstream market in Manila and became one of the most frequently visited coffee shops in the Philippines. They have branches in SM Mall of Asia and Market, Market.
UCC Café Plaza
The Euro-Japanese fused food, free Wi-Fi internet, and various café concepts makes the UCC Café Plaza a very trusty hangout place for Filipinos. They have several branches in the country and eight other Asian countries. They have a very simple layout but favorable quality.
McCafe of McDonalds
McCafe has gained a following for the quality of their coffee, although not for the ambience as a hangout spot for the elite. They are often found in most of the McDonald’s branches, making them the most accessible among other coffee shops in the country.
Café Capreal
They are the only coffee shop in the country that has sugar free products-- ideal for diabetic coffee lovers who still don’t want to give up on coffee. They have reasonable prices although they only have a single branch in Retiro.
Since Starbucks is the unquestionable leader in the industry, it was decided that the behavior in its stores be the focus of observations. However, the group also recognizes that other industry players are also quite significant, thus the choice to expand observations into three other popular coffee chains Seattle’s Best Coffee, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, and the Filipino-owned Figaro Coffee. Starbucks remained the point of reference for many observations and descriptions.
Based on the information above, coffee shop is one of much known type of food and beverage service and because of this, the group decided to come up with the study of establishing of a new type of coffee shop.

CHAPTER III
MARKET FEASIBILITY
A. Market Description
The Municipality of Silang is a first-class landlocked Municipality in the Province of Cavite, Philippines. It is approximately 45 kilometers south of Manila. Gen. Trias, Dasmariñas, and General Mariano Alvarez bound it on the south and on the west by Amadeo. Silang is noted for its relatively cool and invigorating climate.
It has a population of 156,137 in 2000, 199,825 in 2007 and 221,293 in 2010. Its population density is 1,278 persons per square kilometer and has a growth rate of 5.05% per annum in a land area of 156.41sq.km.
Silang, like most of the towns in the province of Cavite, depends on a mainly agricultural economy. Manufacturing and trade, aside from agriculture, are Silang’s other major sources of income. Trade establishments in Silang include gasoline stations, convenience stores, lumber/hardware traders, groceries, resorts and hotels.
Only few commercial establishments are located at the area, so instead of putting up an old-fashioned café, we decided to establish a business that has a unique concept. Moshi-Moshi Coffee Ko is an anime themed café which basically offers delicious foods served at a place with an ambiance showcasing the very colorful and inviting world of anime.
Coffee Shop Stereotype VS Moshi-Moshi Café
Coffee Shop Stereotype
Espresso Golden Rule: “If you can’t spell it, you can’t make it!”
--Never buy anything from a coffee shop that spells espresso with an ‘x. How can you trust someone to give you a decent drink when he/she can’t even spell it right?
Bizzare Pricing
--When somebody ignores the industry and prices menu items in an illogical way, they may be ignoring the standard of making the drink as well.
Eyeing the Equipment
--In the great effort to get rich serving espresso a few tight-fisted cafe owners out there decide to go cheap when it comes to buying equipment. There is a difference between buying equipment for the coffee shop and for the home, yet some places don't grasp that concept.
Going the Distance
--This method is directed at those coffee shops that have lots of space. In fact, they have so much space that they spread the drink operation to great lengths. To sum up, the further the distance between the place or order and the place or drink pickup, the greater chance for errors to be made on the drink. Proceed with caution and stay away if the cafe is busy.
Cleanliness
--If a cafe can't keep the shop clean and looking good, then they probably can't keep their coffee equipment cleaned and well maintained. A clean shop will probably have better coffee. Enough said.
Moshi-Moshi Café
Our employees have the knowledge to ensure that everything is made in the right manner and will never work below the standards.
Every menu item is priced reasonably. Cost controls were performed to determine the right pricing for a certain item.
We don’t use substitute equipments. We make sure that we have all the equipments required for the production.
The place is designed to be fit for the human body, its movements and its cognitive abilities. How each element interacts with one another must be taken in consideration for us to make sure that everything is being done properly and that every customer is satisfied.
We make sure that our café is always at its best.
B. Market Projection
The business will be located at Blk220 Lot21 Metrogate Estate Silang, Cavite, near Far Eastern University. The concept of our business is more inviting for younger group of people; the students of the nearby university are described as the business’ target market. Based on our research, FEU has a total of 1, 858 students with a population increase of 5% per semester.

Computation for the Projected Customer
Operating Hours: 14 hoursCustomer Maximum Staying Time: 30mins
Schedule: 6am to 8pm
Margin of Error (20%-30%)
14 – Operating hours
x 2 – counts of customer coming to the shop
28 – Possible counts of customer that will come
Group: 4 tables x 4 seats = 16
Single/Pairs:12 tables x 2 seats = 24
40 – persons/30mins.
40 x 28 = 1,120 x 20% - Marginal Error
=224
1,120 - 224 = 896 – estimated customer/day
Weekly: 896 x 7 = 6,272
Monthly: 896 x 30 = 26,880
Yearly: 896 x 365 = 327,040

G. Market Program
In every business, marketing aspects should be taken in consideration to determine whether the business is progressive or not.
Marketing Strategy
The strongest part of our strategy is our unique concept of promoting cosplay which has a high probability of appealing to the majority of the area’s population. Together with the good service that our café offers, we can gain competitive advantage towards our competitors in the area.
Our promotion will be through the following:
Print Ads—flyers, tarpaulines, etc. Each will be having the Café’s façade as a background image. Details such as name, address, telephone number, website, products and services offered by the business will be included.
Webpages—we will be creating a website of our own. This is to enable the business to reach out to those techie customers. Also, we will use the power of social media. The café will be signing on to some of the most popular social networks suck as multiply, twitter and facebook.
Menu Promotion—10% discount will be offered to senior citizens. Everyday, a menu item will be featured as “food of the day” and will be offered on a much lower price.
