Abstract
Strategic Management Concepts and models are widely being used by organizations to achieve a sustainable
competitive edge in the industry. Applying the principles and theories on large corporations is common. In our research,
we have selected a start-up restaurant of Saudi Arabia initiated by a group of enthusiastic young Saudis. Though the
business is still at an early stage of development, we had analyzed the enterprise by applying different strategic
management perspectives. The research discussed the business venture using SWOT analysis, value chain analysis, and
external & internal scanning analysis. Future research directions are also given.
