4. Wendy's -- Tim Hortons
   Schuessler was ... looking for new avenues for company growth as concerns increased about the limited growth prospects for the Wendy's chain in the core U.S. market. In addition to a new effort to expand the Tim Hortons chain in the United States, Schuessler announced in February 2001 that Wendy's International was looking to further diversify its restaurant lineup and had as much as $500 million at its disposal to pursue acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures. The first such move came in February 2002, when the company announced that it had spent $10 million for a 45 percent stake in Café Express, a pioneer in the burgeoning fast-casual sector. Fast-casual restaurants combined the casual dining of a Chili's or Ruby Tuesday with the self-service, walk-up service of a typical fast-food outlet. Founded in Houston in 1984, Café Express was an "upscale bistro" featuring pastas, salads, sandwiches, roasted chicken, soups, side dishes, and an "Oasis Bar" where customers could customize their food with a variety of condiments. By early 2002 Café Express was a 13-unit chain operating in Houston, Dallas, and Phoenix.
5. California Pizza Kitchen
   California Pizza Kitchen was opening restaurants in upscale office buildings and pricey malls and as freestanding units in affluent areas. The company's restaurants were primarily located throughout the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area, but new units were opened on a monthly basis in major cities across the country, including Chicago and Atlanta. Except for two franchises in Las Vegas, and a limited partnership in Chicago, all of the restaurant units were owned by Flax and Rosenfield. Delighted by the chain's success, PepsiCo management was especially intrigued by the part played by the waitstaff in California Pizza Kitchen's achievement. When PepsiCo officials visited a number of California Pizza Kitchen units located in various areas of the country, they discovered an inordinately friendly and helpful staff of waiters and waitresses at each restaurant. Impressed by the process of selection, training, and retainment of employees, PepsiCo was determined to learn how to apply these techniques to its own restaurant operations.
6. Seeds -- Fruits
   Seeds are produced in several related groups of plants, and their manner of production distinguishes the angiosperms ("enclosed seeds") from the gymnosperms ("naked seeds"). Angiosperm seeds are produced in a hard or fleshy (or with layers of both) structure called a fruit that encloses the seeds, hence the name. In gymnosperms, no special structure develops to enclose the seeds, which begin their development "naked" on the bracts of cones. However, the seeds do become covered by the cone scales as they develop in some species of conifer.
7. Restaurants -- United States
   From January to June, 2004, more than 25,000 business licenses were issued nationwide for new restaurants. These business licenses represent the first step for thousands of Americans who have dreamed of opening a restaurant. It's an important statistic for "Restaurant Startup & Growth" to track since the magazine is written exclusively for this entrepreneurial group.
