of expressing the commercial and strategic viability of a new restaurant located in Lisbon.
The ambition of this start-up is to have a positive acceptance in the restaurant and similar
market, taking advantage of the healthy food and lifestyle trends and offering better lunch
options and other food solutions for customers.
In order to fulfill the great objective proposed in this dissertation, always supported on
the literature review based on different approaches to the concept of strategy and strategic
control, it is carried out the internal and external analysis of the company, as well as the
market in which it intends to penetrate.
