Business Plan
Over the next 5 yrs, I would add more items like cases of mini donuts, drinks, etc. I have worked all of my life. Now that retirement age is creeping up on me, I wouldvlike to focus on my future and my dreams. I am currently a truck driver and have seen too many deaths on the roads. I don't want that to be me. I feel I have earned the right to start a business that I am passionate about.

Self Identified Competition
Other mini donut trucks. Any other mobile vendors and vendors with more options. I'm not doing this to be rich. I'm doing this to be with my family and still provide like I have done for the last 50 years. It is scary thinking about retirement. I have always been the bread winner I still want to be a provider for my family.
