Manuel who was student at Nova SBE joined his friends Luis and Antóno and together the three decided to open a restaurant. This thesis deviates from the traditional ones because instead of an extensive literature review it involved a much more practical adaptation of the concepts learned while attending the master’s program at Nova SBE. This paper goes to show that even with the recently acquired knowledge and the right tools in hand forecasting the future of a business is quite hard due to the great significance of unpredictable factors. The three partners underestimated their potential but managed to make the most out of its unpredicted growth, while still suffering from not predicting it correctly. The reader will not find an extensive literature bibliography, some references are made of course, although the vast majority of the information comes from the personal experience of the student, who tried to use as much academic concepts as he deemed possible. it was a bumpy road yet the partners are now proud to stay they were able to create a company that employs over 20 people and has revenues of over one million euros in the first twelve months. This paper tells a story but also leaves many questions answered, the future is very uncertain for many reasons, most of them are addressed in the discussion, the partners believe they meet the requirements to keep growing, will the public keep demanding their tacos?
