Redpill me on starting a kebab shop. If newly arrived immigrants can open one and make a living, surely I can too?

You could open a kebab shop, or you could buy kebabs from the kebab shop and resell them at a higher price.

Where are you located? 67% of new restaurants in the U.S. fail within two years. Some markets are saturated, others are overregulated, and a very very few are so badly underserved that you'd be able to succeed by selling dog food.

I lived in one of the latter types for a while. There were so few restaurants that the locals would eat at even the worst places just to have someplace to go on a Friday night. Find one of those and you can learn as you go. Try to compete in NYC or Chicongo and you may as well just set a big pile of money on fire to save yourself the wasted effort while achieving the same result.

Make kebabs out of Mohammad.

They get a business loan, you will not.

>>60890516
I fucking love these kebabs but there's only one place in my city that has them. If there was a kebab cart guy in my neighborhood he'd be making bank

These are usually just a front for a more lucrative business.

With a bit of starting capital, a good location and a good work ethic it's fairly simple to start a food business.

Don't make a kebab tho, take something else that works and add a little bit of innovation to it.
Pizzeria has to be the most profitable food business imo, very cheap raw materials (most of it is water and flour), a very low bar for what is considered good, and with a bit of technique you can make something delicious.

I'll even suggest a spin : propose to sell little square pizzas like the algerians do, but using traditional neapolitan dough. This way people who aren't quite hungry enough for a full 'za but still want some (like me right now) can still buy from you

You can't get a good falafel for 20 miles in any direction around here.

I stopped going to restaurants because food is no longer cooked by clean white people. I feel this is strongly untapped potential.

lmaoooo not everyone is a white supremacist

Too much hassle dealing with drunks, but if I could perfectly recreate doner kebabs at home, I'd eat them and nothing else.

Owning a restaurant is a terrible investment. Stressful, competitive, margins are tiny and most fail. U should do it
>>
>>60890516
Consider a food caravan that you take to events and markets.
Far higher turnover than a shop.
You only pay rent for the days of the market- you don't have a 7 day/week lease with 3 busy days and 4 quiet days.
Markets are fun.
You will have too much cash to know what to do with.

>>60890516
do it

This is actually blowing my mind a little...
Yeah... why do I suck so bad?
Some faggots from nigger Italy or hell Arabia can just go to jew York and open a fucking restaurant and get paid? What the hell is that?
>>
One of the best businesses if you live in a lame Euro neighborhood. The costs are low if you just do kebab. That disgusting meat + french fries and/or salad. You hire paki fake students and there you go.

I live in the middle of no where in Japan but in one of the few towns which isn't dying. I'm not short on money, opposite in fact, but I want to solve two things:
1. Tired/"burnt out" from working in tech for so long.
2. More money, I want to build something of my own that can grow exponentially instead of just getting promoted for a 5% raise.
I work remotely so I have a lot of free time, was thinking of opening up some kind of bbq ribs food truck. Menu would be very simple:
Sell by the rib (people here won't fork out anything over 1,000 yen for food).
Optional hotdog bun (this is a country which serves stir fried noodles or even spaghetti in a hotdog bun).
Pickles.
Draft beer.
Accept catering/big orders.
To give customers somethings they can relate to or something familiar, provide a variety of sauces and rotate them to get an illusion of "oh I have to try that sauce before it goes away". Wasabi, onions sauce, teriyaki, miso.
Kids can eat it on their own without making a mess, dads like meat and beer, moms will be happy to make their kids and husbands shut the fuck up.
>food truck license is relatively easy
>you can buy a secondhand food truck for a relatively cheap price
>cook at home, ribs/salt/pepper/smoke, keep it simple.
>take one small grill for presentation and keeping the ribs warm
Plan is to just secure spots if there are festivals or events, and if the money is good, get more trucks and then try to sign a deal with ski resorts nearby to park one of my trucks inside.
Eventually I'll move on to just staying at home tending the fire, hire part timers to man and resupply the trucks.
Don't know what license is needed but also expand into making my own sausages, if reception is good then add it to the menu and then check into local supermarkets to see if they're willing to stock it in their shelves.
>>
>>60894272
Few reasons why I think it might work out:
>wife and her family are socialites, everyone knows them and they know everyone, nepotism will give me a head start in both securing spots and marketing/word of mouth
>I actually make good food, I think, maybe. I mentioned they're socialites, so whenever they host parties (which happens very often), I'm the designated cook.
>I have more than enough space to set up several 500 gallon tier offset smokers to supply the trucks if I can somehow reach that stage

You don't buy the walls you pay rent for the local.
>>
>>60890516
You need to add things like tax fraud, hiring illegals for 1/3rd of normal wage, dealing drugs, selling food that went bad, etc because they usually do at least one or two of these

>>60893334
Falafels are a soft scam, they charge you almost as much as for meat for fried cheakpea paste
