Aurum Grill Business Plan — Implementation Roadmap

Section 22 · 23 of 29

Implementation Roadmap

Execution is sequenced across five workstreams over a 60-month horizon: foundation infrastructure, corporate rollout, franchise scale-up, market and brand development, and regional expansion / exit preparation. The roadmap is dependency-aware, corporate flagships and the commissary must precede franchising, and format validation must precede aggressive franchise recruitment.

NoteThe critical path runs through franchising

The binding dependency is the sequence commissary → corporate format proof → FASA registration → franchise recruitment. Any slippage in the first three compresses the window for the franchise scale-up that drives the bulk of later-year revenue and the group EBITDA inflection at ~Month 30. Milestone-linked capital release and disciplined stage-gating are recommended to manage this risk.
