2.0 Company Summary[back to top]

JavaNet, soon to be located in downtown Eugene on 10th and Oak, will offer the community easy and affordable access to the Internet. JavaNet will provide full access to email, WWW, FTP, Usenet and other Internet applications such as Telnet and Gopher. JavaNet will also provide customers with a unique and innovative environment for enjoying great coffee, specialty beverages, and bakery items.

JavaNet will appeal to individuals of all ages and backgrounds. The instructional Internet classes, and the helpful staff that JavaNet provides, will appeal to the audience that does not associate themselves with the computer age. This educational aspect will attract younger and elderly members of the community who are rapidly gaining interest in the unique resources that online communications have to offer. The downtown location will provide business people with convenient access to their morning coffee and online needs.

2.1 Company Ownership[back to top]

JavaNet is a privately held Oregon Limited Liability Corporation. Cale Bruckner, the founder of JavaNet, is the majority owner. Luke Walsh, Doug Wilson, and John Underwood, all hold minority stock positions as private investors.

2.2 Start-up Summary[back to top]

JavaNet's start-up costs will cover coffee making equipment, site renovation and modification, capital to cover losses in the first year, and the communications equipment necessary to get its customers online.

The communications equipment necessary to provide JavaNet's customers with a high-speed connection to the Internet and the services it has to offer make up a large portion of the start-up costs. These costs will include the computer terminals and all costs associated with their set-up. Costs will also be designated for the purchase of two laser printers and a scanner.

In addition, costs will be allocated for the purchase of coffee making equipment. One espresso machine, an automatic coffee grinder, and minor additional equipment will be purchased from Allann Brothers.

The site at 10th and Oak will require funds for renovation and modification. A single estimated figure will be allocated for this purpose. The renovation/modification cost estimate will include the costs associated with preparing the site for opening business.

2.3 Company Locations and Facilities[back to top]

A site has been chosen at 10th and Oak in downtown Eugene. This site was chosen for various reasons, including:

  • Proximity to the downtown business community.
  • Proximity to trendy, upscale restaurants such as West Brothers.
  • Proximity to LTD's Eugene Station. Parking availability.
  • Low cost rent - $.85 per square foot for 1700 square feet.
  • High visibility.

All of these qualities are consistent with JavaNet's goal of providing a central hub of communication and socialization for the Eugene community.
