Concept:	Buffet: Affordably-priced, gourmet buffet featuring pizza, pasta, salad and dessert in a 4,200 square foot restaurant with 180 seats; take-out and catering; no alcohol; payment by cash or check, credit/debit at some locations. To-Go: Convenience-driven, 800 - 1,000 square foot unit offering CiCi's Ready Right Now/Made To Order products; no dine-in seating; take-out and catering; no alcohol; payment by cash or check, credit/debit at some locations.

Growth Projections/ Strategy:	CiCi's has implemented a quality growth mandate. Though the company has certain growth targets, the overriding goal is quality in franchisees and stores. CiCi's expects to open 80-100 new units per year over the next five years. The company is focusing on attracting top notch operators and growing in the markets currently being served and beyond. The process of filling in the gaps in the current 29 states, coupled with multi-unit development growth in new territories like Arizona, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, South Dakota and Wisconsin will take the company to the next tier.

CiCi's Lingo:	Guests: Customers are considered "guests" in our restaurants and are treated as such. Greeting: All guests are greeted as they enter and exit our restaurants with "Hi! Welcome to CiCi's" and "Thank you." WOWs: Part of the culture is to WOW everyone with exceptional service from the store level to the corporate office. Cutting Edges: Long-term cost-saving measures taken by all corporate employees. i.e.: Taking a connecting flight or staying over a Saturday night to obtain a better airfare. DMs: Corporate and franchise district managers who oversee operations/compliance system-wide. JMC: CiCi's sister company and the distribution arm for CiCi's Pizza. Formed in 1991, JMC currently provides all food to every restaurant in the system. Three facilities are currently in operation. Visit www.cicistrucking.com for more information.
