Bad324 Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Trying to see if a venture is worth pursuing. There are plenty already (locally I only know 2 stores) so not sure but id want to start with an online store then maybe branch out in to hitting flea markets and festivals and what not then moving maybe in to a store.It would be a store of condiments, sauces, rubs and specialty flavors of all kinds.

C-bus Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 If it made sense, I would. Would have to be something I couldn't get locally and would have to make sense with shipping. I'd throw in some Jerky too. I love me some good jerky and commercial stuff is crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted April 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Yup, there would be plenty of options you can't get locally and Jerky would defintely be in the plan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-bus Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Actually a friend of mine from college is in the jerky business. He's from up your way....Brecksville I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madcat6183 Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Does he have a brick and mortar or just a web presence?Think he's a franchise and no brick/mortar for him. I know he travels A LOT, like almost weekly, 3-4 days a week. But always home for Fri-Sun. Single dad with 2 kids living with him so must do pretty well. They are old enough to stay home alone obviously. Nice cars, dresses nice, and very polite, just don't see him often. I mean I think its a good idea, never know, could be the next pampered chef.

what Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 You'd need some pretty solid branding to sell food items over the Internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gump Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 I'd start with Amazon or eBay. You'll pay thru the wazoo for a site integrated to an ERP. We're currently engaged in a 6 figure web creation fiasco with punch out catalogs for specific customers et cetera. I buy peanut butter through Amazon. I'd buy all groceries online if feasible.

Staubig Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Sounds like you need some Dusty's Dust. Ass-kicking pepper powder. Little influence on taste, big influence on heat. I'll get you some when its ready if you like. Grown and made in the 419. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
