Hi guys,

im new to this section, although i don't reply here very often, sometimes i take a peek too

a lil intro here, im a final year UTM student, as you guys can see, im doing online computer hardwares here, about 2 years now.
im a sc comp student, very horrible programmer, so-so designer(multimedia), and with very bad CGPA.
im in dilemma actually right now :

1) start working first? 2-3 years maybe?
2) anybody want 3rd class degree holderka
3) i want to maintain my current business AND to add one more, i dont see i can handle 3 jobs well
4) i hate working in the office, i really like entrepreneurship


cut things short, in my college now got many Arabs, foreign students, got one burger stall, and i saw it is always crowded. so one day im thinking why not open one kebab stall?
they don't prefer our local food. The kazakh's even cook their own foods
i love middle-eastern and western foods by the way.

so i want to know who ever have inputs on :

1) what the margin would be like? 10-15%? 25% possible?
2) what the cost of the machine?
3) should i look into franchise in the future? im not doing stall forever
4) how much can i give myself for a month? (salary/gaji)

My business plan :
1) start a kebab stall in front of my college
2) give a delivery service, they're scattered around campus area, and it is pretty big one


i did some googling and here's what i found :

kira-kira kebab

Malinja Doner Kebab
link1
link2

yup..i know Melawati kebab, i once studied in KL, and in my hometown Muar also got Melawati Kebab.
i googled yesterday and did found they need partner, just need the capital and they will supply all those machines and ingredients.

but the problem is they're in KL
the nearest supplier i can find is that Malinja Doner kebab

can you ask your friend for my question like the margin and stuff?

yup, im not planning to run it alone too. Too hectic on peak time(maybe la). But hard to find good business partner, because you know, some degree holder thought this stall-selling things is not a cup for them. "tak standardlah" lol
my parents might object too because its a waste for my degree?

thx but not starting yet, ill try to contact the supplier first

might add all that too

sish kebab quite rare, usually people make doner one
