Select a company in the café industry (coffee, tea, etc) within the last 5 years, and provide a link to the company's Web site.
Determine the following about that company:
What are the company's top risks, and what is management doing about it?
What size operating or cash loss has management and the board agreed was tolerable?
Suggest at least 3 alternatives to managing the company's risk.
