Nick Serrao Business Analysis

In my neighborhood, we have a corner store that is near the bus stop. The deli is called 24/7 convenience, but everyone around here uses its nickname, “Toms”. Toms deli is around 2 blocks away from my high school, and it is perfectly placed to get the most amount of customers. It is right in front of the bus stop that 95% of students take to get to and from school. Every morning, hundreds of students go into the deli and buy something, wether it is a drink, a snack, a sandwich, or maybe all three. This takes place before and after school, both times where students are hungry. There is always a huge crowd outside of the deli, it is mainly students waiting for their bus to come while eating something from Toms. If Toms was not placed in this exact location, then many people wouldn’t get anything at all after school.

As an accounting major, I often wonder how much revenue that Toms takes in. Their revenue must be sky high, assuming that they get most of their products in bulk and for a very cheap price. Another major that I chose was real estate, and I spoke about this earlier with the location of Toms. The real estate major would most likely be very fascinated by the location of the deli, because it is the perfect spot to generate the most business. They would also take into account the possible change of business if it was placed in a different spot. The last major that I chose was management. A management major would like to see how the owner of Toms keeps his store, and his attitude towards his customers. The owner keeps his store very clean and tends to build friendly relationships with his customers over time.

The majors that I chose were Accounting, Real Estate, and Management. These majors were good choices because they had something to do with my chosen business. This process allowed me to dig deeper into my analysis on the store and let me look at it through different lenses.
