Question:

My interest is to eventually open a vegan eater in my home town. I wonder if you can share information that would help in creating a healthy business.?

— Tim Hummell

Answer:

Well, first of all, I would love to know where you lived because as they say location location. I would say to begin with the needs assessment. I would go visit other vegan eateries. I would perhaps look at the network of vegan chefs that are in your community. We have a wonderful South Jersey is just over a bridge. We have a wonderful Rouxbe graduate who has a cafe called The Gentle Giant Cafe and if you go to GentleGiant.com reach out to Dawn is her name, and I'm sure that she would be happy to discuss with you the joys and pitfalls that might come with operating your own business. You would also want to establish what kind of vegan Eatery it would be and Finding a location becoming an LLC working with a great lawyer and having that passion for cooking plant-based food that I'm sure you already have so great question.
