Justin Seafood Market has been providing customers with the finest quality seafood for five
years. The business is primarily wholesale to area restaurants. We purchase seafood directly
from local fishermen and contacts all along the Florida panhandle. This allows us to pick from
the finest selection of seafood available anywhere. Currently, we sell to over sixty restaurants.
This a 10% increase over last year and we estimate that we will have additional restaurants as
customers next year.
Justin Seafood Market plans to expand our storefront and sell direct to the public. In our
expanded market, we will bring our commitment of quality, freshness and great prices to the
public. By purchasing in large quantities we are able to pass the savings on to our customer.
The planned renovation will cost $150,000. Additional service staff will be hired to assist
customers. Bill Justin, owner of Justin Seafood Market, will invest $50,000 in the expansion
and also secure a $100,000 short-term loan.

Justin Seafood Market
1.2 Mission
The mission of Justin Seafood Market is to offer customers the best seafood prices on the
highest quality seafood.
Justin Seafood Market is primarily a wholesaler to area restaurants. Bill Justin, owner of Justin
Seafood Market, has utilized his wholesale background, his experience in the restaurant
industry, and his contacts with the area's fishermen to build a loyal customer base.
Bill wants to open a seafood market to the public by renovating the building's storefront to
accommodate the public.
Bill Justin started Justin Seafood Market in 1996 in response to the dramatic growth of the
Florida panhandle. Over the past five years, the population has increased by 30% in
communities along the panhandle. But most importantly, tourists have returned to the area.
In 2000, tourists spent over 400 million dollars with panhandle businesses. A significant
portion of those sales were with the area's loyalty. Currently, there are over 1,350 restaurants
but that number grows by 15% annually.
Against this backdrop of growth, Bill Justin launched his market. Starting with ten customers in
1996, Justin Seafood Market now serves sixty restaurants.

Justin Seafood Market
Justin Seafood Market is located at 3456 Main Street, Tallahassee, Florida. After renovation,
the market will have an additional 5,000 ft. of floor space that will be used for the new retail
operation.
3.0 Products
Justin Seafood Market currently provides numerous seafood products to restaurants in the
Florida panhandle. The market's new public retail outlet will focus on popular seafood
selections that will bring customers into the store.
Tallahassee has a population of over 160,000 residents but the area receives thousands of day
tourists each year. Justin Seafood Market is located in the busiest commercial section of
Tallahassee with excellent foot traffic. Expanding the market's storefront by 5,000 ft. will
create an inviting environment for the public. The market's interior design will focus on the
motif of an open air fish market. We will advertise the market as a place where the public can
get quality seafood at wholesale prices.
