Casa Trattoria Itaya
Casa Trattoria Itaya is a restaurant situated in the city of Iquitos in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon Rainforest. It is located in the beautiful historic & touristic center of the city with a spectacular view of the Itaya River (a tributary of the Amazon River) and a picturesque plaza from the dramatic & traumatic Amazon rubber boom era. Iquitos is the gateway to exploring the Amazon Rainforest and approximately 300,000 tourists visited Iquitos in 2014. The number is increasing with each coming year. The population of Iquitos is around 700,000 people.
​
The owners, Hans Järlind and Nancy Rivera, are interested in attracting a third investor to provide the necessary funds to ensure a successful reopening of the restaurant after the ongoing renovation of the plaza outside has been completed. This mega project, which objective is to beautify the historic and touristic center and make it more attractive for visitors, has been going on for a year and is expected to be finished after another six months. The required investment, by the investor, is for the purpose of covering the running and fixed costs for a period of six months after reopening, as well as financing the procurement of some missing kitchen equipment/utensils and other necessary physical inputs. The investor would receive a corresponding percentage of the business to be discussed in more detail.
Some of the advantages of the proposed business opportunity to reopen Casa Trattoria Itaya can be summarized as follows:
- It is the first and only trattoria in Iquitos and has a proven and successful concept of high quality food, cozy ambiance and genuine hospitality. The ambition of the trattoria is to become a kind of typical Mediterranean Plaza Café that one would find in cities like Rome, Venice, Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, Marseille, etc. with tables and chairs outside in the picturesque and historical plazas.
- The restaurant premises are owned by the main partners. Therefore, no rent has to be paid and there is no risk of being evicted.
- The restaurant is almost completely renovated. Only minor renovations are required.
- Cozy atmosphere with a warm and unique personal interior design, which is the very definition of a true Italian Trattoria.
- The restaurant is almost fully equipped and furnished. Only a new pizza oven and some kitchen equipment/utensils as well as some tables & chairs are missing.
