Louisiana Daiquiri Escape LLC 85-2885593 | Government Grant Application

Louisiana Daiquiri Escape LLC | Application Preview

 

Louisiana Daiquiri Escape LLC is seeking government grants to fund the purchase of equipment, drinking supplies, surveillance, and to cover at least three months of rent. The business plan is structured in phases, starting with selling take-out-only products, then transitioning to an on-premises lounge, and eventually establishing a full lounge/restaurant. The strategy includes advertising outside the local area, particularly before the holiday season and summer months, to boost sales.

The reason for approving the funding lies in the unique market position of Louisiana Daiquiri Escape as a hybrid company specializing in alcoholic beverages for retail sales. Despite economic downturns impacting many sectors, the alcohol industry has shown resilience and increased revenue, suggesting a favorable environment for growth as the economy picks up. The business aims to compete with established brands like Fat Tuesday's and Wet Willy's, focusing on local sales at competitive prices and emphasizing quality.

While local competitors exist, none currently offer a take-out-only model for daiquiris in Warner Robins or Georgia as a whole, positioning Louisiana Daiquiri Escape to capture a unique segment of the market. The company also plans to offer diverse daiquiri options, including party packs. Furthermore, the owner’s status as a disabled veteran evokes strong support from fellow service members, who are expected to comprise a substantial portion of the customer base.

    Growth Strategy To grow the company, Louisiana Daiquiri Escape will do the following: • Sell products as Take-out or To-go only / Off-premises consumption (Phase 1) • Lounge / On-premises consumption (Phase 2) • Lounge/Restaurant / On-premises consumption (Phase 3). • As business grows, advertise outside of the local area, especially in advance of the holiday season and summer months. Louisiana Daiquiri Escape will be a hybrid company serving alcoholic beverages as a retail package. Currently, daiquiris are considered a niche market, comprised of different fruit flavored alcoholic beverages. There are companies, such as Fat Tuesday’s and Wet Willy’s that have a large customer base from their sale of similar products that are offered internationally. We will sell locally at competitive pricing and provide a better-quality beverage. Even during the current pandemic, consumers are spending less on non-essentials. However, the alcohol industry revenues didn’t take a hit but rather increased during this time. This means there is a potential for growth as the economy recovers and shows that alcohol is a product that could be deemed as essential.

  • Self Identified Competition

    Companies such as Fat Tuesday’s and Wet Willy’s and local establishments near Warner Robins would be considered the top competitors that have a large customer base from their sale of similar products. However there is no single entity in Ga who provides to-go only sales of daiquiris. Our main competitors; Fat Tuesdays and Wet Willy’s do not offer to-go only daiquiris here Warner Robins or Georgia. This means there is a huge potential for growth in this small town as nearby towns are close enough to drive and purchase daiquiris. In addition we offer well diverse daiquiri options to include party packs where those over 21 can acquire. With the backing of being a disabled veteran we are set apart from our competitors by having the backing of our fellow soldiers, sailors, marines and Airman. They are the ones who will bring 60% of our business sales.
