Facteurs de risque

• Long break-even window (37–999 months) tied to inconsistent $7,560–$12,960 revenue
• High downside profitability (down to -$1,569/month) indicating weak cost coverage
• Low purchasing power environment (GDP/capita $2,728) limiting discretionary spend
• Intense local competition (500 competitors nearby) increasing price and margin pressure
• Revenue variability relative to fixed retail costs, raising stock and cashflow risk

Plan d’exécution

1. Narrow the product mix to high-margin, giftable items that fit local budgets and seasonal demand
2. Run 6–8 week pre-sales and voucher campaigns through Facebook/WhatsApp with local influencers and churches/community groups
3. Improve merchandising and conversion in-store with gift bundles (birthdays, Ramadan, back-to-school, weddings) and clear price tiers
4. Introduce delivery/marketplace partnerships within Bouaké to capture demand beyond foot traffic
5. Track unit economics weekly (gross margin, inventory turns, cash conversion) and cut underperforming SKUs monthly
6. Plan cashflow buffers and strict reorder limits to prevent overstock that worsens the negative profit range
