This plan discovered an opportunity; that most people would love to be able to cook exotic cuisines, however, there are factors that mitigate against this. Factors such as the cumbersome cooking steps, difficultly searching for exotic recipes, expensive exotic ingredients are hardly to used up within the expiration date, etc. Therefore, we proposed this business plan for a meal kit service to solve these problems. Through this plan we have observed the increased demand for e-commerce of fresh food, however there were few manufacturers trying to build the market of meal kits which is multicultural the products were still limited in the certain market like Italian cuisines. Within this plan, we wish to have a breakthrough over the market segmentation and provide the meal kit service for foreign cuisine which is not common in Taiwan. The meal kit contains various fresh food materials and seasonings for suitable number of servings and a recipe card which has the introduction of foreign cuisine culture, ingredients and detailed cooking steps printed on. The foods will be offered as à la carte or meal, and costumer can order from the official website. This plan solves the preparation of seeking foreign recipe, food materials procurement, and cleaning and getting the materials ready. This plan aims at the consumers who love to try new things, foreign tastes and with certain level of love for cooking. This plan features to provide reliable food materials which are traceable, and in a set with elaborately designed recipe card for foreign cuisine and the seasonal limited theme about traveling the world. Therefore, consumers not only learn new knowledge and acquire new tastes, but also have a sense of achievement and renewed interest and satisfaction in the whole cooking process. Two million dollars are planned to be invested into this plan, and under possible status for finance, we expect to take by the invested money and start making profit. The five-year averaged profit rate is 17.8%, therefore this is an efficient start-up plan.
