• Demand volatility in Cobán could push monthly revenue below the $12,600 lower bound
• Food cost inflation may squeeze margins, risking profits below the $4,512 lower range
• High local competition (120 nearby) can limit repeat customers without strong branding and location strategy
• Break-even sensitivity: missing the 5–10 month target may strain cash flow during ramp-up
• Weather/seasonality could disrupt daily sales, especially for a mobile-style service at a fixed site
