Client Background
Douceurs D’Ivoire is a private limited company specifically set up for events and catering activities. It specialises in African food for the international community. Business was well known to its community of foodies for its pop ups, takeaway meals and specialty Chef events. Business wanted to expand to selling precooked meals to supermarket chains and intermediaries.

Our Actions and Solutions
To understand the businesses value for investors we started off with a full business valuation, taking into account a number of factors such as the health of the balance sheet, its buyers and sellers, current and projected P&L and the value of its current customers. We then embarked on writing a full investors business plan, analysing the current market place, the businesses operation and capabilities and the financials. In the interim, we initially helped the business raise some seed money through a business Loan. We also did a business diagnostic.
