Factores de riesgo

• High rent/operating cost risk could delay break-even beyond the 5–10 month window
• Demand volatility risk: monthly revenue may drift toward the low end ($12,600) if foot traffic or event volume underperforms
• Competitor density risk: 55 nearby competitors may compress margins and require stronger differentiation
• Cost inflation risk: monthly profit variability ($4,512–$10,092) can narrow if ingredient, labor, or fuel costs rise faster than pricing
• Purchasing power risk tied to GDP/capita of $8,452 may limit willingness to pay for premium menu items
