Abstract/Summary

This senior project discusses the results from the development of a business plan for Mueller Game Bird Farm which specializes in raising bobwhite quail for hunters, falconers, and other hobbyists. The plan uses current research with personal experience to develop a realistic approach to fit the needs of this business.

A business plan is a document that will continually change as the business grows and develops. This plan is for the business at the current stage of producing 500 bobwhite quail per year and discusses plans for growth over the next three years as well as strategies to obtain that growth. The demand for this business is high but the company is still in development. The company could fail if it attempted to grow too big too fast. The business plan will show how to have controlled growth for the each of the business’s target markets.
