Now Mocha is looking at two more potential acquisitions, each of which would cost around $100,000 to $150,000; they may be a way to increase sales and profits without adding to his 24-employee payroll. But Mocha has no dreams of becoming a conglomerateur. "I know the truck-equipment industry," he says. "But if I were to buy a waffle shop, the learning curve would be very high...
