First thing is Halal issue. The head of Leasing mentioned that I should know that all the shareholders inside KLCC are Muslims and although my food is purely chicken, tuna, and veggie but still cannot guarantee all of them are Halal. She said I have to come out with Halal Cert. I have no idea how to apply this Halal Cert. Finding outsourcer who has Halal Cert now. (Muslim brother, is it difficult to apply for this HALAL cert? what's the criteria?)
2nd is, I need "HACCP" cert. She said all of their F&B stalls having this cert. Without this cert, they can simply reject ya proposal.
3rd is, "Your stall image doesn't suit our KLCC style". This is what she replied. I even set up logo, website for brand image but due to the selling way is low cost way, that's why they don't like it. (!@#$%^&*

)
I get humiliated there and people there very LCLY.
But what to do? gotta move on.
(By the way, I still havent give up yet due to the flow in KLCC really superb. But I am working on it alone and I really need capable partners too! Anyone who has high motivation and risk taker may PM me for more details.)
Hey,
I think you should try flea market for starters, I have just completed my very first outdoor event, crowd was okay, but my drink sells! Sold out withn 6 hours and I have to close early since I ran out of pearls & straws.
BUT, i may need to sell my business because I cant be taking leave all the time. I have booth, menu, equipment, list of events (outdoors), supplier contacts, materials, logo & company registration.
Here are my booth & banner.
(Looked damn haggard cause I only slept 4 hours before)
Trust me, this is a good busines if you have the passion for it. It was my 5 months of hard work. But I have to let go of it since my career is taking off. Best to do outdoor/weekends only. I cant, since I am in Singapore.
