August 17, 2007, Newsletter Issue #120: Entrepreneur + Food Lover = Fun Business!

Tip of the Week

Entrepreneur.com Tip: If food is your passion, why not consider starting a business in the food industry? There is a food business opportunity everywhere you look, if you know where to look. But think outside of the typical option, a restaurant, and look at businesses that are unique and offer plenty of room for growth.

Delivery Service
Some larger cities have food delivery service companies that work with a group of restaurants to provide seamless delivery to customers. The industry is relatively undeveloped in many cities. For restaurants who can’t afford to offer their own delivery services, a business like this can boost their sales with little effort on their parts.

Shaved Ice
While this business can be seasonal (depending on the climate where you live), it can also be lucrative, and costs very little to get started. Shaved ice stands or kiosks are great sellers during the hot months, and strategically locating your business in a heavy foot traffic area, such as a beach or shopping area, can make you unbelievable profits in a short period.

Vending Machines
If the term “vending machine” brings up an image of salty snacks and chocolate bars, think again. Today, vending machines are keeping up with technology, and you can get anything from a freshly baked pizza to fresh potato chips from a vending machine.
