Instructions
Step 1
Decide which type of fast food you are interested in. You can start with a small hot dog, whitewash, or shawarma kiosk. This type of business does not require large investments, but it can be very profitable, especially if you plan to organize a network of points.
Step 2
Another interesting option is to buy a ready-made franchise. In addition to well-known international brands, offers from Russian companies can be found on the market. The choice is wide - from kiosks selling filled pancakes or sandwiches to large self-service restaurants. When choosing a suitable concept, take into account the amount of mandatory payments to the franchisor (royalties) and its requirements for the partner.
Step 3
Choose a convenient place to trade. Fast food can be sold at busy intersections, in parks, and near public transport stops. A very good place for a kiosk - next to educational institutions, business centers, clinics. Do not open a point in the back of the sleeping block - the locals are unlikely to provide you with high turnover. A fast food restaurant can be placed on the food court of a large shopping center. This will save opening costs and significantly increase the flow of potential visitors.
Step 4
Before starting work, obtain a trade permit and an opinion from the Sanitary and Epidemiological Service. Register the cash register.
Step 5
Take care of purchasing the necessary equipment. The set depends on the selected point format. For a kiosk selling ready-made sandwiches, you only need a microwave oven, a refrigerator and a kettle. If you plan on making pizza, steaks, kebabs, or shawarma, buy the right krill - a carousel, lava, roller, or pizza grill. Don't forget drink coolers.
Step 6
A restaurant or café will need several grills, as well as food warmers, warmers, refrigerators and freezers, coffee machines, and beer dispensing equipment. Some of the equipment can be provided by suppliers of drinks, some necessary items can be leased. Consider buying used equipment - after the liquidation of a catering company, it is sold at significant discounts.
Step 7
Hire staff. In the kiosk, you need two salespeople for shift work, in the restaurant you need a cook, a cleaning lady, a hall manager and a director, whose role you can play yourself. Do not forget to check the availability of valid health certificates for all employees - their absence entails high fines for the company.
