These figures are estimates of the investment in setting up a low cost and high cost
1000-1500 square foot traditional Quesada Mexican Grill Restaurant and are based on
our experience to date in Toronto. It is possible to exceed costs in some areas listed
above, such as construction. These costs estimates should be considered atypical and
a closer estimate of real costs would be the mean between the two. Actual costs may
vary depending on physical size and current condition of the premises. The above
estimates do not include extensive exterior renovations, an allowance for working
capital or the cost of engineered drawings which may be required in exceptional
circumstances. The above estimates do not include any federal or provincial sales taxes.
In the event that construction and other costs might exceed these figures
both you and the company should know beforehand and can make a mutual decision about
whether or not the site justifies the additional cost. These figures do not take into
account any tenant improvement (if any) allowance from the landlord which, if due is
typically paid several weeks after you open but would still lower the overall
investment cost. More detailed information related to these estimates will be made
available in the Disclosure Document.
