You can get an EPAL licence for quite cheap and then you become an official repair / selling point of their network, which is key in the business development of your company

Only 13 licences have been delivered in my eastern european country which makes the link between Europe and Asia and none in my city (which is literally the capital) - except for one supermarket chain who does it for themselves so they are not really a competition

Any advice if you know anything about the pallet business?

Don't russian prisoners make these in Ukraine? You think you can compete?

russian companies can't access this market as it's regulated also russia is very far from bulgaria...

yes they are selling ford trucks in LA but if you need one in Paris it's not important

thank you bratan

They're like 20€ a piece, I don't think you'll get rich off them desu
And who gets them repaired, you just throw them out and get a new one or is that just decadent first world country ways of doing things
>>

>And who gets them repaired
literally jobs in the UK for pallet repairer.

that's the whole business model mate

you get the broken ones that people wants to throw away and don't even have time to transport to the municipal bin, repair them, put your EPAL seal on them to testify the quality and then you resell them for 9-11 euros

you add to this the fact that it's an ecologic business and you get EU funds to help growing your business

you think small businesses wants to pay 20 euros per pallet to ship their merchandise? no, they want them cheaper but EPAL sealed so the warehouses in France, Germany, Italy won't refuse them

There's a lot of factories and warehouses that store a lot broken epal or even those cheap pallets because they don't use it, and when their stock place is full they call someone and pay him to throw everything away.
So you just need a ford transit and asking if they got pallets to throw away, often they Wil be happy because you can free a space for them, and so they don't need to pay someone for do it.
I used to make this year's ago

I don’t know the specifics of any of it OP but it doesn’t sound like a bad idea. You’ll need a truck and some space, and then after that it’s just making contacts. If you get busy with it you’ll have to hire help and that’s where you’ll need to calculate if there’s enough money in it to afford to pay someone else to do it, but I’m sure you can make OK money doing it yourself if you work hard at it.
Best of luck.

thank you for the tip, why did you stop?

>>61554069
i can rent a 100 sqm warehouse for 500 euros per month at 10 minutes from my place, i will have to buy or lease a small truck in the beginning, sure i will see if it's doable to have employees but in the beginning find some pallets for free would be good

Too cheap. They are locally manufactured on demand.
