2.1. Potential Customer:
According to the market research of demand and supply of food service, I will focus on the following customers: • Pupils and students study in several schools in Hai Ba Trung district and nearby. • Young households want to discover Korean cuisine. • Korean people live around Hai Ba Trung District
These categories of customers who have good income spend £85 per month for eating. In terms of students and pupils, although they do not have much money, they are likely to be prospective customers because they are interested in trying unusual dishes. Therefore, they possibly become loyal customers in the future. After that, I hope that I can attract not only the youth but also middle- age and elderly people by promoting the advantages of Korean food for health.

Moreover, this area is quite near the city centre, which a famous travelling zone for tourists. Hence, a large number of tourists who come from other parts of Vietnam and foreigners as well might become customers of my restaurant
