Breaking even 37% <br />Losing money 25% <br />Table 3: Profitability of Incubators in 2015. <br />Overall, it seems fewer incubators are breaking even in 2015, however, more are <br />either profitable or lose money. The trend, however, still suggest that food incubators <br />are challenging to operate. A flaw the authors did not mention is the reporting bias and <br />censoring. Companies may be less likely to report losing money and the companies that <br />have already gone out of business are not included in the survey. <br />Key competitors <br />Local restaurants <br />The CDA for the current study has <br />been shown in Figure 1. Here we used <br />the CDA to identify the locations of <br />current restaurants to analyze the <br />regional competitions. Figure 3 shows <br />the locations and the density of the 342 <br />restaurants currently in operation around <br />the Ramsey CDA. The Anoka -Coon <br />Rapids restaurant node has the highest <br />density of restaurants around Ramsey. <br />Elk River, Rogers and St. Francis regions <br />all have a small node of restaurants. <br />These observations follow similar <br />developmental densities found through <br />previous research for a retail <br />development projects. It is also clear <br />that Ramsey is at the edge of the Anoka - <br />Coon Rapids restaurant node and the <br />regions north of the COR has very limited <br />restaurant presence.
