Food trade does not lose profitability. Highly specialized shops and departments, for example, selling a wide range of sausages, are especially attractive to entrepreneurs.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, study who your competitors are and how the assortment of the newly opened sausage store should differ from their product. Define a circle of potential buyers. Try to find an answer to the question why they will buy from you. To do this, you can conduct a survey among the residents of the district where your outlet will be located, ask which store they would like to see in their district, what kind of sausages they lack, at what price they would like to buy meat products.
Step 2
Decide what assortment of sausage products should be in your store. After all, the variety of goods depends to a large extent on whether the store will be profitable. But do not immediately buy hundreds of different types of sausages, and start small. Make a list of the 5-6 most popular and purchased varieties and introduce them initially. Then, based on the results of the store's work, identify the best-selling types of meat products and remove unpopular varieties from the assortment.
Step 3
Be sure to draw up a business plan for the enterprise. In doing so, you need to take into account all the nuances that may be associated with unforeseen expenses. Most experts advise multiplying all expenses by two when drawing up a business plan, and then determine whether you have enough funds to open a store.
Step 4
Find a suitable room and equip it. Make the main emphasis on good refrigeration equipment. Many sausage manufacturers offer their own branded equipment for the sale of meat products of their production - carefully study this opportunity, it will allow you to save significantly.
Step 5
Simultaneously with all the above problems, solve the legal one - this is the registration and execution of your business. Register an emergency, get all certificates for food trade.
