hi everyone..i'm a full time entrepreneur and currrently in
the midst of setting up my first venture in the retail sector,
in kota bharu, kelantan.

I'm venturing the business of supplying baking & cullinary
ingredients & equipment together with my wife, and the reason
why we chose to do the business is because we've already
familiar with obtaining baking goods as my wife's mom
is a bakery shop owner, and the market there is huge.

The only setback of the bakery business there is that there
is only a small number of supplier to cater for the high demand
baking goods, and most of them aren't as well equipped as those
found in KL, namely BAGUS: www.bagus.com.my

Due to that reason, we plan to setup a store similar
to the concept of BAGUS, but of course with a little
twist to make it unique and more 'lively'.more on that later..

The question is, how do i approach a supplier
considering the fact that i haven't start the business yet..
anyone have any supplier contacts that can provide me
with complete range of baking products?

and last but not least..ive search the net for company
that can provide me with POS system..one from penang quoted me
for around rm3k, and there is one in Kota Bharu
quoted for around rm8k for the same item blink.gif
what is the price range of POS system actually?

many thanx in advance..hpe anyone here can help smile.gif

just to share with you what is going on in Singapore.

Hi there

Wondering if you have setup your business in Kota Bharu? And if yes, where is it located?

Thanks
