What's Next

So now that the ink is dry on the Chippery license agreement. I have to gear up to open the first unit. The plan is to open up in The Mall at Wellington Green on or before October 1st. Before this can happen, there are a slew of things that have to get done. Here's a short list:

• Negotiate final terms of mall lease


• Store design


• Mall and Health Department Plan Revew


• Permitting


• Demolition


• Construction


• Installation of Fixtures and Equipment


• Hire staff and take care of other administrative tasks


• Training


• Pre-opening marketing and publicity


• Health Department inspection and occupancy certificate


• Grand opening!

Each of these items is a world unto themselves. I'll be expanding on each one in future posts.
