This is a small company with our employee categories including counter clerks, kitchen help, and busboys. We assume nine employees total, the owner-founder plus four counter clerks, two in the kitchen, and two busboys.
The owner-founder will be in attendance during normal business hours, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. five days per week. In addition, specific other employees will have supervisory roles for times when owner-founder is not able to be present.
The management will consist of Ms. Jane Ericson. Ms Ericson has been involved in the cooking profession all her life and has acquired a local reputation for creating inventive and tasty recipes focusing on Northwest cuisine. For the past seven years she has run a cooking class business out of her home and will have her first cookbook published next year. Desiring to have an independent business that would provide more income, Ms. Ericson attended Columbia River Community College where she obtained a BS in business in preparation for starting her own deli.
Currently the business lacks a dedicated marketing manager and an accountant. For the present, these services will be outsourced.
