Total€720,000
Critical: The €300k working capital buffer is not optional. You won't break even until Month 8–9. Without this cushion, operations go underwater in the ramp period. This line item is the difference between success and a failed launch.
04 — COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS

NOKB World vs Yo-Yo

Yo-Yo Luxembourg
1,500–2,000 m²
Hybrid indoor/outdoor
No dedicated event rooms
Standard equipment
Minimal parent amenities
€15.50–17 pricing
VS
NOKB World
3,500 m² — 2x capacity
All-inside — year-round ops
6 dedicated rooms — €130k/yr unique revenue
Montana-themed premium experience
Premium café lounge with sightlines
€19–22 premium (justified)
The edge: NOKB isn't trying to out-Yo-Yo Yo-Yo. We're serving a different customer — one who wants an immersive themed experience, dedicated event space, and a premium café. The €130k/year from event rooms alone is a revenue stream Yo-Yo structurally cannot access.
