3. Implement pricing and promotions tied to peak hours in Higüey to stabilize the monthly revenue floor
4. Reduce break-even risk by negotiating lower fixed costs (rent, utilities, supplier terms) and using delivery/catering add-ons
5. Build partnerships with nearby businesses/schools/hubs for recurring orders and pre-orders
6. Set weekly KPIs (COGS %, gross margin, labor %, average ticket, repeat rate) and adjust within 14 days if targets miss
