I have been tossing around the idea of opening a coffee shop and working on a business plan. There are a couple locations I have looked at and the one that is ideal to me at least would be in a shopping center , lots of traffic, the closest places that sell coffee are McDonalds and Books a million with three local shops about two blocks apart also two miles away , then a Starbucks and Dunkin donuts about three miles the opposite way. The down side some would consider is the spots are more in the corner of the shopping center, one is 1500 SF the other is 1000 SF. The lease is negotiable for both spots with other buildings going for about $13 a SF/YR. Would it be that bad of a spot ? I believe if it was marketed correctly there would be no problem. The spots have been empty for years now, what would be a fair offer ? Could use any advice , opinions and I have plenty of other questions about starting up.
