Title: Small Business Valuation and the decision to Sell: The Case of a Growing Pizzeria

Author(s) : Shazad Mohammed, Mojtaba Seyedian

The purpose of the case is to determine whether Rinaldi’s Pizza should be sold now or continue to be operated and sold at a later date for a potentially higher value. The background introduces a small, privately owned restaurant operating in a relatively fixed market with several active competitors. The case is designed to raise management issues of strategic decision making, market analysis and company valuation.
