each category of food varies by country and by region. It depends on the history, climate

Chips to go intends to cater to people of all ages, with more emphasis on the
students and faculty members of Legazpi City Science High School. We have chosen this
group for several reasons. It is our goal to be “the extraordinary burger place” and we
believe that the age group from 4-19 years old, as well those who are at the toddler age
(1-3 years old), is the age bracket where brand building efforts take place. They are also
assumed to be given limited budget, and seek a value/price not exceeding or stretching
their budgets.
Our secondary target market, ranging from ages, 20 and above, are assumed to
be the restaurant user group, or those who spend more money on food. They have a
more flexible or fixed income and are more likely to seek a higher value/price for the food

Our service strategy is dual purposed. First, we are featuring a wide variety of
vegetable chips to fill LEGASCI’s and other customers’ cravings for junk food, as most
ideas of eating chips is the thought of eating light, and not heavy meals.
Second, we want to keep a price point as fair and as low as possible to keep us in
competition with other food stalls packaged brands that also sell minimum priced chips.
With price ranges amounting from Php 10.00 to Php 25.00, we may be slightly above the
index, but we are going to offer much more than the rest of the competition.
