Hey people..

I would like to know, does anyone know anything about manufacturing? I would like to put up a vinegar factory.. I was wondering if you'll could help with some ideas like where to start and what should I do with regards to it.. How do I start a business? My dad used to do this but on a small scale and now after many years, I would like to start..

Please help
 
Is your dad still around? If so, that will be a good place to start. If not. Did he have a partners in the business that could give you advise?
 
Problem with vinegar is it's cheap and there is huge competition out there that will force you out the industry if you seem a threat.
Your profit is very small and your overheads and distribution is expensive.

Just my 2c but hey good luck.

I do have the suppliers and all info, unfortunately no partners that's why I'm in the dark.. What I really need help with is how to grow a customer base?
 
You're going to need a lot of grapes. Old ones preferable. That's all I got wrt vinegar. Sorry. Good luck.

Lol it's fine I know a guy that uses some acid to make the vinegar.. He calls it imitation vinegat
 
What's going to be the selling point of your vinegar?
The market is already dominated by Safari.
Unless you're offering some hellishly expensive artisinal vinegar to a few niche stores, I can't see you taking on the big companies.
 
If you can market a "special" type of vinegar for weight loss you might have something.

I currently have a tablespoon of Apple Cider first thing in the morning.


Don't know what the fk it's supposed to do but I read somewhere that its good to do it.

Real Apple Cider yes, but that very difficult to get the stuff in the shops are not the real thing
 
Lol I meant vinegar.. My biggest fear of a business is failure.. What if I lose? What do I do..

rather go work for a boss or if you already doing so, stay there

businesses fail, its what you are willing to learn from previous failures and implement in your next endeavour that will eventually lead to success

From your replies it does not seem that you have a solid client base yet. So, why not 're-start' on a small scale like your dad did. It will be much easier and not as costly. From there you can gather market info and once you have scale and a decent customer base then you could start looking at setting up a larger operation.
